Typoe's Artistic Ode to Miami: The Underline's New Installation

Typoe Sculpture Garden transforms a section of The Underline's 10-mile linear park into a vibrant and surreal gathering area. The large-scale sculptural icons are inspired by children's building blocks—referencing the history of blocks as groundbreaking educational tools that foster and challenge creativity in all of us.

These shapes resonate with children and adults alike, encouraging joy, play, and creativity. Typoe has created many of his own shapes referencing art history, fashion, nature, connectivity, and the afterlife. Two constant themes throughout the blocks are balance and how we build the world around us. If we had no limits, what kind of world would we create?

"This park is my love letter to Miami," said Typoe. "It is something I hope the entire community can come to enjoy and experience together. My dream has always been to design parks and public spaces, and I'm so thankful for the opportunity to make my dream into reality with The Underline and Airbnb. I've always been highly influenced by the Art Deco movement, and it's a tradition that I wanted to keep in the city, but in a fresh modern way."
