    Architecture firm Arquitectonica designed Miami’s Brickell City Centre, a nine-acre development that includes 500,000 square feet of retail. A glass, steel, and fabric structure, known as the Climate Ribbon, covers the shopping concourses, letting in light and air and collecting rainwater that is used to irrigate the landscaping.
