Miami is already a luxurious paradise, but in 2029, the Magic City will become just a bit more fantastic with the opening of The Residences at Mandarin Oriental on Brickell Key. This 66-story, 229-unit building represents another successful venture for Hong Kong-based Mandarin Oriental, a hospitality brand renowned for its meticulous attention to every facet of its hotels and residences.
If you’re ready to join Miami-Dade’s real estate market, this beautiful pre-construction is well worth a second look. Located on an artificial island already known for its exclusivity, spearheaded by a world-class architect firm, and with interior designs that offer a masterclass in European sophistication, this sustainable yet ultra-luxurious condominium deserves your investment.
A Lush Private Island Affords Endless Entertainment
Brickell Key is a manmade island off the Brickell financial district of Miami, managed by Swire Properties since the 1970s. The company has poured billions into developing this location with 5,000 trees, one of Miami’s largest green spaces, and a continuous boardwalk that encircles the beautiful condominiums.
All this will be taken to new heights with The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami, featuring an 80,000-square-foot amenities podium shared with the neighboring Mandarin Oriental hotel. Here, residents and guests can appreciate such delights as multi-tiered swimming pools with immaculate landscaping, Mandarin Oriental’s signature spa, a tea pavilion with private chef kitchens, a tea garden, and an art gallery. If that’s not enough, a multi-use sports area allows residents to play tennis and pickleball, and there’s even a virtual golf room for those who want to practice their swings at any time.
Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates (KPF) Delivers a Bold Design
Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates has won numerous awards for its previous projects, including five projects included on the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat’s list of the 50 most influential tall buildings of the last 50 years. They’re best known for their work on 333 Wacker Drive in Chicago, Lotte World Tower in South Korea, and the Shanghai World Financial Center, but this doesn’t even scratch the surface of their list of achievements.
The Residences at Mandarin Oriental in Miami promises to match these prior successes with its elegant, sweeping facade. With gorgeous private terraces and a delicate gold silhouette, the building perfectly encapsulates a blend of old Miami sophistication with forward-thinking design. Most critical to buyers, KPF is a leading tastemaker in sustainable architecture, incorporating passive design that adapts to climate changes, keeping residents safe and comfortable no matter the weather outside. This is especially important in Miami, where sultry summers can easily lead to major cooling expenses.
Parisian Interior Designer Tristan Auer Provides Old-World Aesthetics
Tristan Auer has become the face of Parisian design in recent years, bringing sophistication to all corners of the globe. Some of his most well-known projects include Island Shangri-La in Hong Kong and Sofitel le Scribe in Paris, both of which focused on bright whites, calming neutrals, and delicate floral patterns to offer a sense of respite and comfort.
Auer has a deep knowledge of Mandarin Oriental’s brand, having previously worked with them on the Mandarin Oriental Paris in France and the Mandarin Oriental Savoy in Zurich, Switzerland. Here, he brought stunning class to the interiors with luxurious woods, bright golds, and soft hints of Mandarin Oriental’s Hong Kong roots through watercolor panels.
His work in Miami promises to be just as audacious yet refined. Residents will be treated to bespoke Italian cabinetry, natural stone countertops, and state-of-the-art Gaggenau appliances. Soaking tubs, marble floors, and stone vanities with backlit mirrors will make every day feel like a spa day for Mandarin Oriental residents and guests, especially those lucky enough to secure a unit with an infrared sauna included.
Sustainability Is at the Forefront of Mandarin Oriental’s Project
Kohn Pedersen Fox & Associates is well-known for its strong focus on sustainability, including passive cooling and intuitive design that respects nature. However, this is not the only reflection of sustainability at The Residents at Mandarin Oriental. Thai landscaping firm Shma is taking charge of the outdoor spaces with its single-minded focus on green infrastructure. At Shma, living in harmony with nature is a top priority; their company is committed to an inclusive future that tackles social and environmental changes with respect for all involved.
One of Shma’s most iconic projects is at Le Meridien in Zhengzhou City, China, where the team created a landscape weave meant to reflect the city’s long history of silk making. This reflects Shma’s strong focus on place and history, making a landscape that honors the past while building a more sustainable future. Each design is customized for the given city and brand to create a finished result that is more artwork and garden.
With an interdisciplinary team hailing from around the globe, The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami, brings together the best talent in each field, all carefully managed by one of the world’s foremost hospitality brands. Those able to secure a unit in this Brickell Key beauty will be promised the utmost in luxury in a serene environment perfectly suited to Miami’s style.
