Slip into vacation mode at the Four Seasons Hotel Miami, where refreshed guest rooms and suites boast touches of midcentury glamour, city-sleek sophistication and Miami flair. Known for creating a distinct sense of place, designer Tara Bernerd, of interior architectural firm Tara Bernerd & Partners, drew inspiration from the hotel’s surroundings in Brickell and beyond.

“The neighborhood is a thrilling mixture of skyscraper-filled urbanism, yet it’s only minutes away from Biscayne Bay and the Miami River as well as just a short distance from the ocean. Our designs reflect this with a fresh mix of sophisticated playfulness that will appeal to guests,” Bernerd describes.

Rooms are tailored with floor lights, dramatically elongated headboards, credenzas and benches enveloped in a pale palette that contrasts the bold carpets. Whimsical photography by Annelie Vandendael enlivens the spaces. Many rooms showcase a generous window seat fitted with cushions and blinds adorned with leather straps that help frame the stunning views.
