HOSPITALITY BRANDBOOK
The global reference for hospitality.
A theatrical oceanfront hotel that helped reposition Mid-Beach as a cultural and luxury destination. Art, cabaret, ambitious dining and South American-inflected wellness give Faena an identity extending well beyond its guest rooms.
The Story
Origin
Opened in 2015 within the redevelopment of the historic Saxony Hotel, Faena Hotel Miami Beach became the hospitality anchor of Alan Faena and Len Blavatnik's larger Faena District.
Philosophy
The hotel treats hospitality as a deliberately composed world, bringing art, performance, food and ritual into a single, highly recognizable identity.
Why Important
Faena is a significant reference for the hotel as cultural district anchor. Its arrival helped shift attention north of South Beach and demonstrated the commercial power of a tightly authored hospitality universe.
Differentiation
Few Miami-area hotels integrate a theatre, substantial art installations and a distinctive wellness identity so closely into the core hotel experience.
Food Philosophy
Dining is part of the cultural proposition. Los Fuegos by Francis Mallmann brings Argentine live-fire cooking into an elaborate hotel setting.
Guest Experience
A beach-and-pool stay is layered with destination dining, performances at Faena Theater and treatments at Tierra Santa Healing House, which draws on South American healing traditions.
Design Philosophy
Rather than pursuing restrained coastal luxury, Faena uses saturated colour, cinematic staging and monumental artworks to create a sense of spectacle.
Design & Architecture
Lighting
Decorative fixtures and warm, theatrical lighting give public rooms an evening-oriented atmosphere.
Furniture
Plush upholstery and statement pieces favour drama over visual restraint.
Materials
Marble, velvet, gilded finishes and patterned textiles.
Architecture
The hotel reworks the historic oceanfront Saxony property within a broader district of cultural and residential buildings.
Design Language
Cinematic maximalism combining Art Deco references, tropical imagery and theatrical luxury.
Interior Design
The creative collaboration with Baz Luhrmann and Catherine Martin produced richly staged spaces, including the mural-lined Cathedral entrance and vividly coloured guest rooms.
Graphic Identity
Red, gold and recurring theatrical imagery create continuity across the hotel's physical and visual identity.
