Edgewater's building boom has produced a run of glassy bayfront towers, but only one carries the name of an Italian fashion house on its first residential project in the United States. Missoni Baia rises 57 stories at 777 NE 26th Terrace, a slender, faceted tower on Biscayne Bay that pairs a fashion-brand pedigree with serious architecture. For Missoni Baia, match the offered home’s floor, orientation and plan against relevant dated sales. Ask which services the adopted budget funds and which charges apply to the unit; the building’s fashion brand does not determine its current market value.
The fashion house's first American address
Missoni is best known for its zigzag knitwear, and Missoni Baia is the brand's debut in U.S. real estate — the interiors take their cue from the house's palette and pattern language without turning the building into a showroom. Completed in 2022, the tower brings a European design sensibility to Edgewater, a neighborhood that has otherwise defined itself through developer-and-architect pairings rather than fashion labels. The result is one of the corridor's more distinctive addresses: a name buyers recognize attached to a building that stands on its architectural merits.
Asymptote's asymmetric tower on the bay
The design comes from Hani Rashid of Asymptote Architecture, and the defining move is the tower's asymmetric, sculpted massing — a form that steps and twists rather than rising as a flat slab. Across 57 stories and 249 residences, that geometry does practical work: it orients more homes toward the water and breaks the facade into a series of angled glass planes that catch light differently through the day. Developed by OKO Group and Cain International, with interiors by Paris Forino, Missoni Baia was conceived as a design object first — the kind of building that reads as architecture from across the bay.
Five pools and an amenity deck built for wellness
For Missoni Baia’s amenity program, check the current access rules and budget. Ask which facilities belong to the residential association, how their operation and maintenance are funded, and whether any use attracts an additional charge.
The residences: layouts, glass and views
Missoni Baia's 249 homes span roughly one- to five-bedroom layouts, wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass that frames bay, ocean and downtown-skyline views depending on exposure. The asymmetric floor plates mean lines vary more than in a boxy tower — an advantage if you want a specific orientation, and a reason to compare plans carefully rather than assume every unit on a floor is alike. As a 2022 building, it delivers current-generation systems and finishes without the timeline and deposit risk of a preconstruction purchase; what is available is whatever owners are reselling at any given moment.

Edgewater context and who it fits
Missoni Baia fits the design-minded buyer who wants a brand-new, architecturally distinctive bayfront home minutes from Wynwood, the Design District and downtown, and who values a wellness-heavy amenity program over a walk-to-the-sand address. It sits comfortably alongside its Edgewater neighbors — the twin towers of Aria Reserve and the slender Elysee Miami — as part of the corridor's new-construction cluster, each selling a different version of bayfront living. For buyers weighing Missoni Baia against those neighbors, or tracking what specific lines have resold for, that is a building-level conversation we are glad to have.
