The History of the Versace Mansion: Casa Casuarina
“Mansion of Versace,” also known as the Casuarina, symbolizes wealth, tragedy, and creativity. Located on 1116 Ocean Drive, Miami Beach, FL, Casuarina has woven its way into the fabric of architectural history and the world of glamour.symbolizes wealth
Alden Freeman’s Mediterranean Revival Gem
Built-in 1930, this three-story estate was commissioned by Alden Freeman, the philanthropist and heir to the Standard Oil fortune. Freeman wanted to create a home that combined the elegance of the Mediterranean revival with the beauty of Miami Beach, and the result is Casa Casuarina. The three-story building features Coralline limestone blocks, similar to the famous Alcázar of Colón, Dominican Republic. The world-renowned architecture firm Mizner & Co. designed the home’s interior and features beautiful key lime coral floors.
The name itself is a bit of a mystery. Some think it was based on the title of a W. Somerset Maugham novel. Others think it references a tree that miraculously grew after the 1926 Miami hurricane destroyed most of the city. The house’s architecture featured an observatory and a miniature version of the iconic Homage Tower of Fortaleza OZama. But the real showstopper was its walls, adorned with more than 100 portraits of famous people, from Lenin to Mussolini to Julius Caesar.
Gianni Versace: A Fashion Icon’s Palazzo
Let’s fast forward to 1992, when the world’s most famous Italian fashion designer purchased Casa Casuarina for $2,95 million. With his exquisite taste and eye for the unexpected, Versace began a project that would forever cement his legacy within the mansion’s walls. He re-invented the name of the villa and breathed new life into it. He carefully crafted a private oasis of creativity and luxury within the villa’s long-forgotten walls.
The 8 bedrooms, 2 kitchens, 3 sitting rooms, 10 bathrooms, a bar, a library, and 4 living rooms came to life as Versace’s vision came to life. Modern conveniences like central air conditioning blended with the mansion’s historic charm.
This one-million-piece handcrafted mosaic pool was Versace’s artistic masterpiece. Every mosaic tile reflected the sun’s rays and spoke volumes about the designer’s passion for art. Versace’s Medusa, a symbol of power and beauty, adorns the mansion’s gates and interiors. Her captivating and mysterious gaze reminds us of Versace’s mystique. The mosaic pool borders were intricately crafted to dance with the sun’s rays.
Tragedy and Legacy
Gianni Versace’s story did not end there. On the steps of his palazzo in Miami Beach in 1997, he tragically passed away, the victim of a brutal attack that shocked the nation. But his legacy lives on. The mansion is now a boutique hotel, and its walls whisper of glamour, ambition, and timeless beauty. It is a legacy that lives on in the stone, the medallions and the mosaic tiles that decorate the walls.
Gianni Versace’s Aesthetic: Where Fashion Meets Extravagance

When Gianni Versace purchased Casa Casuarina, it was more than just a mansion; it was a canvas. His vision spilt over the walls, transforming Casa Casa into a living embodiment of his vision. The renovation transformed the mansion into an extension of Versace’s runway, an ostentatious display of excess and seduction.
The million-tonne pool reflected Versace’s love of mosaics, each tile carefully chosen to reflect his love of vibrant patterns. The figure of Medusa, his beloved symbol, loomed over the pool.

Gianni Versace tragically passed away on the stairs of his dream home, Casa Casuarina. His legacy lives on, etched in the stone and silk of this boutique hotel.

The Medusa Head: A Timeless Icon
In the heart of this MEC mosaic pool lies the head of Medusa, a symbol tied to the brand. Medusa, the Gorgon of Greek mythology, once had a beautiful face, but the gods cursed her, transforming her hair into a nest of snakes. Those who meet her gaze suffer a fate etched in history; they turn to stone.
As we circle Medusa’s head, we encounter Greek key patterns, a mosaic motif that transcends space and time. These intertwined lines represent the everlasting cycle of life, death, and rebirth.
The Greek Key Patterns
In ancient Greece, these key patterns were used in temples, ceramics, and architectural structures. These patterns connect us to the vast tapestry of human history. Gianni Versace, born in Calabria, drew inspiration from this mythic figure.
Floral Motifs: Nature’s Delicate Beauty
When we look at the edges of this mosaic, we see beautiful floral patterns. These flower-patterned mosaics are carefully placed and remind us of the world’s beauty. They show the fragrances of the garden and the fleeting beauty of life. In their presence, we find comfort and are reminded of the colorful charm of nature, even amidst the stone and marble. The floral patterns soften the edges of the mosaic, adding a touch of elegance and grace. Maybe they represent hope, perseverance, and the everlasting cycle of the seasons.
