Art Deco Gift Shop, Miami

The Art Deco style of architecture and Miami Beach are an inseparable combination, much like Miamians and their café con leche. Walk through the historical Art Deco district of the city and you will see exquisitely restored buildings, painted in various hues of peach, periwinkle, purple, and turquoise, and adorned with intricately crafted motifs. Defining the character of Miami Beach, this extravagant style of architecture inspires a sense of decadent leisure. If you want to replicate a similar sense of relaxation at home or present a slice of Miami’s easy repose to a loved one, pick up a couple of vibrant Art Deco posters from the many stores lining Collins Avenue or Ocean Drive.

Alternatively, you can head to the Official Art Deco Welcome Center and Gift Shop, which is part of the oldest Art Deco Society in the world, and is located right on Ocean Drive in the heart of the Art Deco area. This little gift shop contains an incredible variety of historical items and quaint, vintage merchandise reflecting the style of the 1920/30s. A great place to pick something up from the good old days, as well as some cold water if you are super heated from the Miami sun.
