Bienvenido a Miami 

Perched above the shimmering coastline, this rooftop retreat was made for open-air dining, laid-back lounging and soaking in Miami’s sweeping waterfront views. With its clean lines and cool tones, the space strikes a balance between effortless style and everyday function.  

Designed for cooking, entertaining and unwinding, the rooftop needed shade that could multitask as well as the space itself. The homeowner and design team at IG Workshop tapped Sho-Pro Florida to bring the vision to life with a solution that offered weather protection without blocking the panorama. The result? A custom Azenco Outdoor R-BLADE pergola with a graphic black frame and crisp white louvers that add contrast without weighing down the design. 

With smart sensors that quietly close the louvers at the first sign of rain and built-in LED lighting that sets the mood after dark, the space is ready for everything from morning coffee to late-night dinner parties. The screens are Progressive MagnaTrack, featuring Nano95 screen fabric that’s UV-coated to deliver maximum sun protection. They glide into place at the push of a button, offering shade and privacy when needed—then disappear just as easily. 

Built to withstand salt air, storms and daily use, this rooftop haven is more than just a pretty backdrop. It’s where form meets function, Miami-style.
