MKDA is proud to celebrate the opening of Presidente in Miami’s Wynwood Arts District—the first U.S. location of the award-winning Buenos Aires cocktail bar. As Architect of Record, we partnered with Mico Design to bring this ambitious concept to life, providing permit drawings and guiding the project through local codes and approvals.
More than just a bar, Presidente offers an immersive experience shaped by deliberate rhythm and visual storytelling. Gilded details, sculptural lighting, and immersive artwork—including a sweeping mural by Argentine artist Martín Ron—guide guests through the 100-seat main room and into La Biblioteca, a hidden, speakeasy-style lounge tucked behind velvet drapery. With mirrored floors, custom chandeliers, and rare spirits displayed among soaring bookshelves, the space evokes the elegance of a classic salon with a distinctly Latin American edge
We’re thrilled to have played a role in helping bring Presidente’s bold vision to Miami and proud to contribute to the ongoing evolution of Wynwood’s hospitality scene.
