Miami Real Estate Podcast

Paulo Bacchi CEO da Artefacto conta a Mariana Lima como foi sua decisão de mudar para os Estados Unidos, o que isso significou para o crescimento da empresa, e para sua vida pessoal. Paulo Bacchi: Mais do que o sucesso, comemorar os 40 anos da Artefacto é homenagear o trabalho feito em equipe. É celebrar este aniversário junto com todos os colaboradores que fazem parte da nossa história. Gente que vence as dificuldades, que supera barreiras, que vibra quando abrimos uma nova loja ou lançamos uma nova coleção. É festejar ao lado de parceiros, arquitetos, designers de interiores, paisagistas e clientes. Gente que esteve e está ao nosso lado durante todo esse tempo. Nosso sucesso está baseado no trabalho em grupo, tal qual uma orquestra. Isso é o mais importante. Fazer 40 anos é ter orgulho de conservar nosso DNA em desenvolver produtos feitos à mão, como diz o nosso nome: Artefacto. E, ao mesmo tempo, nessa jornada, de se renovar e ser reconhecida pela qualidade de nosso mobiliário. De ser uma marca brasileira, com identidade própria e padrão internacional, integrada no mundo contemporâneo. Desde que assumi a direção da Artefacto, reservamos para esse momento de comemoração o lançamento de uma coleção 100% sob minha curadoria. Esse foi o tempo que levamos para fazer uma renovação total de nossa linha de produtos. Uma coleção essencialmente moderna, baseada nas experiências de vida que as pessoas têm: um pouco do cubismo italiano, do chique francês, da delicadeza das linhas asiáticas, tudo misturado com o nosso tempero brasileiro. Uma coleção feita para pessoas que vivem em um mundo globalizado, de gente que tem um repertório internacional e que leva essa experiência para dentro de casa. Uma coleção renovada, com design atual e novas técnicas de produção, mas que preserva a manufatura com o uso de fibras naturais, o algodão, o linho, a lã… Produtos mais elegantes, mais delicados, mais confortáveis. Tenho orgulho de estar à frente de uma empresa brasileira que exporta mais do que produtos: nós da Artefacto vendemos estilo. Nos últimos 15 anos consolidamos nossa marca na Flórida. E isso é muito importante neste momento em que comemoramos 40 anos de história: o de levar brasilidade mundo afora. Parabéns Artefacto!

Amazon’s HQ2 may not be coming to Miami, but the “Magic City” is still turning heads among Silicon Valley thought leaders and tech-industry players that now consider it one of the fastest-growing meccas for creativity, innovation, disruption, and growth. Philippe Houdard, co-founder of Pipeline Workspaces and Head of the Innovation Advisory Group for the Miami Downtown Development Authority, explains why on the latest episode of the Miami Real Estate Podcast. About Philippe: Philippe Houdard is co-founder of Pipeline Workspaces, a high-design space used by a diverse community of companies.

The company’s innovative model has been featured in the media over 250 times including by the New York Times, CNN, and the NBC Today Show. Philippe spent his childhood in Villeselve, a rural village of 300 people in France. He credits this experience as a source of inspiration and underlying theoretical model for Pipeline’s focus on creating collaboration and a sense of community among its members. Philippe started his professional career serving as a legislative aide to U.S. Representative Joseph P. Kennedy II in Washington, D.C. and as a campaign staffer for U.S. Senator Edward "Ted" Kennedy.

Nearly 60 years since she and her husband fled Cuba amidst political turmoil and arrived penniless in Miami, visionary real estate pioneer, Alicia Cervera Sr. – otherwise known as the “Queen of Brickell” and “Grand Dame of Miami Real Estate” – shares, for the first time, the 7-keys to selling pre-construction that have powered her success for five decades. For those of you who are not familiar with her, Alicia is the founder and chairman of Cervera Real Estate and has participated in every Miami real estate cycle since she founded the company in 1969. Alongside her daughters, Veronica Cervera Goeseke and Alicia Cervera Lamadrid, the Cervera name has exclusively represented and sold more than 115 condominiums across the region – representing billions in sales – and revitalized neighborhoods, including Brickell, downtown Miami, Edgewater, and Miami Beach’s famed “South of Fifth.” Alicia is credited for pioneering the modern-day model for development sales and marketing, having opened Miami’s door to the global broker community, and in the process, single-handedly proved that the American dream is alive and well here in the “Magic City.” For these reasons – in 2016, the Mayor of Miami declared October 18th “Alicia Cervera Day in the City of Miami,” proclaiming that “no woman has had a larger impact on the development of Miami since Julia Tuttle founded the city in 1895.” October 18, 2018 marks the two year anniversary of this special date and the eve of Cervera’s 50 year anniversary, which finally helped us wrangle Alicia onto the show for a rare and candid interview that proved to be equal parts inspirational and insightful.
