Four 23-foot-tall sculptures stand at the entrance and exit of the garage.

A mix of designers from around the world were brought together using the exquisite corpse method (from the original French term cadavre exquis), which involves a collection of images assembled by various artists with no regard or knowledge of what the other artists have drawn, producing one image whose components don\u2019t necessarily match, but flow together as one playful composition. Each participating artist was assigned an area and depth to build out and given free rein to create fully individual designs. The result is a unique and modern architectural version of the exquisite corpse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The artist, Nicolas Buffe, and architect, Timothy Haahs & Associates, Inc. specified King ColorCore\u00ae, the multi-color engravable high-density polyethylene sheet with multiple layers of contrasting colors for the Miami Museum Garage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
King ColorCore\u00ae is a versatile multi-color engravable high-density polyethylene sheet with multiple layers of contrasting colors. It is a superior homogeneous sheet, a product of a unique state-of-the-art continuous process called Polyfusion, and manufactured to the highest standards in the industry. King ColorCore\u00ae has a matte finish on both sides of the sheet. It is environmentally stabilized to withstand the harshest outdoor conditions. King ColorCore\u00ae will not rust, delaminate or rot when exposed to UV, humidity or water. King ColorCore\u00ae is made with high-impact-resistant polymer to handle more abuse than conventional sign materials. Its thin cap layers and bright primary colors make it ideal for signage, marine, playground and recreational applications. For maximum versatility, standard colors are made to coordinate with King ColorBoard\u00ae. The polymer sheet never needs painting or refinishing, works like wood and it is easy to fabricate using common woodworking tools and techniques. The material is easy to engrave and machine, as the cap is approximately .050\u201d thick.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
