Composed of fifty-nine individually designed waterfront residences arrayed around a glittering lagoon on Biscayne Bay, Monad Terrace provides brilliant light and expansive private outdoor space while being sheltered by climbing gardens that feature native Bougainvillea and Passion Vines. Jean Nouvel artfully directs the play of daylight and water throughout the project.

High-tech honeycomb screens precisely calibrate views and seclusion. Reflecting pools bounce dappled light deep into living spaces, while the signature water garden—the central lagoon, reflection pools, and adjacent swimming pool—draws the feeling of sparkling Biscayne Bay into the heart of the property. Light and water, glass and steel, gardens and façades all combine into what Nouvel has dubbed “the reflection machine”.

The flourishing and special neighborhood of South Beach Bay, minutes from the organic beauty and cultural attractions of all of Miami Beach, but with a character all its own, provides a natural setting for the unique waterfront living to be found at Monad Terrace.
