Last week, our team put their skills to the test outside the office.

We spent an afternoon at Escapology Doral working through puzzles together, then headed next door to SuViche Doral to celebrate. It was an afternoon filled with teamwork, collaboration, and lots of laughs.

The best project work starts with a team that knows how each other thinks. Afternoons like this one help.

Below-grade work in South Florida starts long before the membrane goes down. The excavation has to stay dry around the clock, and the prep work to make the site accessible is extensive.

At 15 City Place in West Palm Beach, John Medina, founder and principal of Miami Curtain Wall Consultants, joined Tremco Commercial Sealants & Waterproofing project profile to talk about how the full team works together across every aspect of the inspection process, so everyone has a hand in, and responsibility for, the physical application.

Villa Miami has topped off.

Our team was invited to join Terra and One Thousand Group at the Villa Miami topping off ceremony in Edgewater, celebrating the tower reaching its highest point. Miami Curtain Wall Consultants is proud to serve as the building envelope consultant on the project.

The day belonged to the crews who brought the structure to this milestone. With the frame complete, attention turns to the building envelope, where curtain wall, glazing, and waterproofing details shape how a high-rise performs over its lifetime.

Congratulations to the entire Villa Miami team.

A leak theory earns the word finding when it can be reproduced on demand.

Form the theory. Isolate the condition. Repeat the result.

Working through a water intrusion investigation? Reach out if your team is navigating similar conditions.

Before a high-rise facade goes up, a full-scale version of it is often built and tested first.

It's tempting to see a mock-up as a preview of how the building will look. It's really a specimen: a kit of parts tested against a defined list of performance expectations, from movement at height to how materials hold up in South Florida's climate.

That matters even more with newer lightweight materials like GFRC, which have a shorter track record on the tallest buildings than traditional stone.

Here's what a mock-up is really testing. Reach out if your team is navigating similar conditions.

Congratulations to Jocelyn Isaias, Senior Architect, on being elected Director on the AIA Miami Board of Directors for the 2027 term.

AIA Miami shapes how the region's design community advocates, educates, and sets the standard for practice. Jocelyn brings to that table the same discipline she brings to our projects: careful detailing, close coordination with project teams, and attention to how a building performs long after it's delivered.

We're proud to see her represent our firm and the profession. Join us in congratulating Jocelyn.

Forty years ago, a University of Florida thesis asked a simple question: which criteria matter most when evaluating a curtain wall? That question became Turning 21, a forensic methodology applied more than 15,000 times in the field and now headed for the next PBFD/ASTM publication. Durable answers come from evaluation refined over time.

Proud of our founder, John Medina, for taking the stage at PBFD Venice 2026.

Speaking on durable façades and serviceability, John shared lessons from more than 40 years in building envelope consulting and façade testing, beginning with his early work at Construction Research Laboratory.

Thank you to Susan Medina for making it possible, and to PBFD for hosting.

Swipe for a clip from the presentation.

Most conversations about curtain wall performance start after something has gone wrong. Ours started in 1986, with a University of Florida thesis asking which criteria matter most when selecting a glazing assembly.

That question identified 21 performance and design criteria. Four decades of field work, hurricane claims, and latent defect investigations refined them into Turning 21, a forensic methodology applied more than 15,000 times in the field.

This September, John Medina presented the approach in Venice, Italy, and the paper has been accepted for ASTM peer review. Forty years later, the conversation returns to the organization that helped prompt it.

Durable answers about glazing performance come from focused, quantitative evaluation refined over time, not first impressions.

Inside the Shrine of Our Lady of Charity in Coconut Grove, everything draws the eye upward: tapered ribs rising toward a deep blue dome, framing the mural above the altar.

Following recent repairs and remodeling, our team was on site leading an exterior facade inspection focused on waterproofing. Renovation work often introduces new materials alongside existing ones, and the transitions between them are where water management matters most. Verifying how the exterior wall performs after that work helps protect the investment made inside, especially in South Florida's climate of heavy rain, sun, and storm exposure.

Preserving what happens inside starts with understanding the building envelope outside
