The Art Deco architects of Miami Beach paid as much attention to the roofline as to anything else — the profile of a building against the Florida sky was part of its identity, its advertisement, its personality. Here, a complex arrangement of white cantilevered elements steps and projects against the blue, each slab casting a bold shadow on the element below, the whole composition functioning as architectural graphic design. Dark horizontal louvers on the upper left add a linear texture to the otherwise smooth white surfaces. On the lower left, a blue building with a teal concentric square motif enters the frame — a fragment of the district's decorative vocabulary, borrowed from traditions much older than the 1930s. The buildings of Miami Beach were always in conversation with each other. This frame catches them mid-sentence.
