SUNSET HARBOUR I

Sunset Harbour I was Studio RODA’s first interior design project in Miami, a full renovation that redefined a basic two-bedroom layout into a more flexible, modern space. The challenge: transform a two-bedroom apartment into a three-room layout without compromising natural lighting or flow. The solution came through a striking modern architectural intervention, a custom slatted wall fitted with translucent 3form panels. This clever feature filters light throughout the apartment while maintaining acoustic privacy. By day, it softens the space with a gentle glow. By night, integrated LEDs turn it into a subtle lighting feature. The luxury renovation relies heavily on custom millwork to shape the minimalist living areas. Built-in cabinetry discreetly conceals the laundry and powder room, adding functionality and visual cohesion. The added third room functions as a flexible media space that easily transforms into a guest bedroom with a hidden sofa bed, balancing versatility and comfort without crowding the floor plan. A refined palette of dark and light neutrals brings depth and sophistication to the contemporary interior, while select pieces of art, like a sculptural installation by Carl Zahn, are seamlessly integrated into the design. With expansive views of Biscayne Bay and downtown Miami, this minimalist apartment embraces both elegance and practicality.
