It’s been up and running since November 9, but have you visited the house that Casa Décor built yet? Well it’s not a house so much as a parking garage transformed into an interior design Shangri-La. This year’s exhibition includes outdoor installations, too, one in the form of the Cointreau Garden Lounge. The visual orgasm you’ll experience would be well worth the trip to the site on its own, but to sweeten the deal, if you show up from 6 to 8 p.m. (5 to 8 p.m. during Art Basel) today until December 15, you’ll be able to lounge in the pink marble garden and enjoy free Cointreau cocktails. It’s free to enter the oasis, and you’ll also have limited access to Casa Décor (1444 Biscayne Blvd., Miami). Visit www.casadecor.com and www.cointreau.com.
Another purveyor of fine spirits is going to intoxicate you with some free art and cocktails in the name of Art Basel, this time at the House of Campari (3930 NE Second Ave., Miami). Besides serving the bitter red concoction, the House will also be offering a showcase of up-and-coming artists from New York’s and Los Angeles’s emerging visual arts scenes. Today the exhibit is open from noon to 7. Call 310-280-3710, or visit www.campariusa.com.
