The Ray design is inspired by Tropical Modernism. This building integrates performative building systems to enhance sustainability and reduce the carbon footprint in South Florida. Key features like perforated screening, brise soleils, open terraces, and roof gardens serve to minimize heat gain and establish a seamless connection between guests and the local environment, addressing the issue of urban heat islands.

Virserius Studio designed The Ray's interiors. Inspired by the elegance of Palm Beach and the Amalfi Coast, the lobby exudes warmth and sophistication, inviting guests into a space that seamlessly blends luxury with a beach-like feel.
