the project takes its name from its location opposite museum park, and offers views across biscayne bay towards miami beach. prices for each unit start at $6 million USD for a 4,600 square foot residence, while all homes feature multiple oversized balconies. conceived as ‘a continuous piece of contemporary sculpture’, one thousand museum is set to complete in 2018. see designboom’s previous coverage of the project here.
