An architect who designs for Miami celebrities

“As a child I had a passion for design. I loved drawing living spaces in my head. It is incredible to make what you dream come true, to see it embodied and for people to inhabit it. “It is a 100% creative profession,” he says. Gerardo Feldmanwho graduated as an architect from the University of Belgrano in 1992 and currently lives and works in Miami.

They are first order It was the remodeling of a nursing home in Caballito. He continued with renovations in houses and apartments, to which he added decoration. He also recycled the Argentine Consulate in Paraguay and built an anti-seismic plant in San Luis and others in Brazil. “With Claudio Gicovate, a former college classmate, we began constructing buildings in the area of ​​Palermo that is now known as Hollywood.”

In 2002, through crisis, he went to live in the United States. In Miami, He was surprised by the size of the buildings and the number of units they had. “It was a vertical city, I came from seeing 30 apartments per building and here the normal thing is 350,” she clarifies.

The crisis, as an opportunity

Although he found a job quickly, he remembers that “It was very hard to start. None of my experience was useful here and the rules were very different. I set up a company to paint houses and I immediately managed, thanks to a conversation in a bar, to install the marble for a 57-story building. From there, I went on to finish the apartments, directly with the owners.”

Until one day, on the flight back from Buenos Aires to Miami, the man sitting next to him opened the computer. Before his eyes what appeared to be a recording studio. Feldman talked to him and ended up knowing that the man was traveling to interview architects and construction companies. “Here you have the first one,” he shot.

Tribeca Group took care of the finishes and interior design of this house, overlooking Biscayne Bay.

Three months later, construction began on a professional music studio in Jupiter Beach, near Palm Beach. Thanks to this assignment, he began to specialize in acoustics. Thus, she worked four years for Damian and Stephen Marley, Bob Marley’s youngest children.

“Making the recording studios and the houses where they currently live was an incredible experience. They asked me the colors of the Jamaican flag on the walls of the house. What it cost me to convince them to use other colors!, she recalls.

Another project that he remembers is the one he did for music producers Danja and Marcella Araica, hit specialists. “I helped them look for the property and, after a year, we found an industrial warehouse in Hallandale Beach. We chose it because of the dimensions, the height and because it was free standing (without party wall neighbors) and that avoided issues with vibrations and sound transmission,” he explains.

Tribeca Group

Together with the design and interior design team of Tribeca Group, the company he created in 2005, he worked on other projects for celebrities, such as Celine Dion, Alicia Keys, Chayanne and Lady Gaga. He also designed an 800 m2 triplex in Brickell for the tennis player Andy Murray.

“Working with him and his wife Kim was pretty easy. They were very practical and decisive. The choice of materials and colors was defined in the second meeting. The only thing they asked for was to have a terrace just like their neighbor’s, Luis Miguel”.

Feldman continues to remember anecdotes with celebrities. Perhaps the one that challenged him the most was one that happened with Chayanne when he made his offices. “How I would have liked to be an architect,” he confessed to me. And maybe in my youth, when I wanted to be an actor, I would have liked to fill stadiums like him. Although today I love giving my experience to professionals who come to Miami. My career was trial and error, and I try to ensure that they do not make the same mistakes, that they learn the rules to be able to build here. Some come with arrogance and collide with the American wall,” he concludes.
