Situated within the Morris Lapidus/Mid-20th Century Historic District, Fontainebleau Miami Beach stands as a living testament to Miami's architectural legacy. Beyond its rich history, the hotel is now setting the course to a promising future: Nichols Architects are currently bringing to life an impressive new convention center facility to the property.
Nichols Architects and Fontainebleau are not strangers to each other. Back in 2002, a $1 Billion renovation was initiated on the property, spearheaded by Nichols team. Now, as the hotel prepares to usher in a new era of grand events, our team has been brought back onboard. This time, we turned to the hotel’s storied past for design inspiration.

The expansion is designed to increase meeting space capacity and enchant visitors with state-of-the-art technology all around. Connected to Fontainebleau Miami Beach’s Tresor Tower via a skybridge, the building will have an 18,000 square foot ballroom that can be divided into four smaller spaces. It will also have another 9,000 square feet of ballroom space, and 10 breakout rooms. The project is currently under construction and scheduled to open in 2024.
