Arquitectonica
Headquartered in Miami, the cruise capital of the world, Arquitectonica excels in port and waterfront design, and has completed hundreds of waterfront projects around the world. The firm designed Port Canaveral’s Cruise Terminal No. 8 for Disney Cruise Lines, Virgin Voyages Flagship Terminal V at PortMiami and MSC Cruises newest terminal in Miami, which will be the largest cruise terminal in North America. Internationally, Arquitectonica designed the Cruise Port of Xiamen, and the Shanghai Shipyards Redevelopment.
Arquitectonica’s portfolio includes ports, destinations and waterfront projects throughout the Americas, Asia, Europe and the Caribbean. The firm has been involved with master planning for major international ports, marinas as well as private islands and other waterfront developments.
From our perspective, it is critically important for the firm crafting the master plan to have architects who also understand the market forces and operations of the buildings intended to be built there, so the master plan is designed within a framework of achievable economic returns as the buildings are phased into the implementation of the plan.
