Arquitectonica, Urbatecture

" The Atlantis Condominium, Miami, Florida
1982
This 20 story high residential slab block contains a large hole containing a palm tree: it featured in a film on postmodern architecture soon after it was built and made quite an impression with its sense of humor and bold use of color!!!" from e-architect

pparently the information above has some problems in terms of description. It is about one of the most prominent work of Arquitectonica. Thanks to attempts of this outstanding architectural group which was a very active 80's progressive firm, now we have such nice urban perspectives in Miami. The city, which if you omit works like these two from, shall remain a very common city.

Again we need to talk about architects who have built the outstanding cityscapes in a way of urbatecture. This type of buildings with a high respect to urban design shape the cities more friendly, attractive and with high level of identity. Now the question is; where are this type of genius architects who can work on context of urbatecture without knowing about it. Watch around to discover more proper examples of Urban-architecture.
