Walk with us through that Shulman-designed residence. Through the low front entry, descend the stairs into an open pool courtyard and walk over the pool and into the front door. Air, water, light, shade, breeze, scent, shelter... it's all there in one place.

Located in the heart of Downtown Miami in the old post office building , circa-1912, the historic landmark will also be the new home of the Miami Chapter of the American Institute of Architects. Shulman + Associates is the Design Architect for MCAD and Forbes Architects is the Architect of Record & Contractor.
Shulman + Associates invites you to experience its latest exhibit design Bob Marley Messenger at HistoryMiami, on display from October 11, 2013 - January 5, 2014.

S+A’s design enhances the exhibit’s themes, transforming Marley's messages into space and creating a textual backdrop. The collage of media is modulated by a neutral dark-gray backdrop that pulls vibrant Rastafarian colors and rich black and white photography into relationship.
Opening celebration is on Thursday, October 10, from 7PM - 9PM at HistoryMiami, 101 West Flagler Street.
