Mid-Rise Condos

• Chatham - The design of the Chatham references the International Style buildings that characterize the post-Art Deco period of Miami Beach using the vocabulary of abstract lines, glass planes and geometric solids combined with colorful murals to evoke the tropics. The penthouses have spectacular living and dining spaces, with private rooftop solariums with adjoining terraces and hot tubs. The spectacular swimming pool is surrounded by terraces and features South Florida's ever changing sky. AQUA's health club and the executive center are on the ground floor.
• Spear - The Spear is designed as two linked buildings to offer corner exposures, cross ventilation and exciting views in nearly every apartment. Serving as the Spear's visual focus, a sculptural covered driveway frames the spectacular entrance and extends along the axis of the lobby, linking its front to a veranda facing the water. The light-filled lobby features contemporary furniture and art. On the ground floor, two-level loft residences have private patios. Penthouses have large spaces with high ceilings and wrap-around balconies. The Spear faces the landscaped neighborhood square on one side, and the island waterside promenade on the other.
• Gorlin - Like a compass, the Gorlin building is divided into four quadrants that point to the cardinal directions. Crowned by a curving rooftop, the building captures the essence of the subtropical environment of Miami Beach. The Gorlin's residences are accessed through a stylish lobby with contemporary furniture and art. With three corner units on each floor, residents will experience the intimacy and privacy of a luxury mid-rise building with ten-foot ceilings, floor through apartments, dramatic windows and terraces. Rooms have excellent views and are protected by an extended sunscreen shading the interiors. On the highest floors, magnificent penthouses have solarium rooms facing large terraces with hot tubs.

Island Homes

• DPZ Corner Home - Drawn from traditional models of European and American urbanism, this island home recalls the early tropical Moderne style of Miami Beach. Classically proportioned elements line up with symmetry and minimum ornament. Like its modern predecessors, this house has an open plan with rooms that flow into one another. Spaces are subdivided to provide elegant dwelling with strict geometry. A tower at the top level leads to a roof terrace offering vistas of the island and beyond.
• Brown Demandt Corner Home - This elegant and restrained composition imparts a modulated rhythm to the facade. The higher floors are the province of the more gestural elements: a series of sheltering terraces to celebrate both night and day. The straightforward layout below emphasizes livability and functionality. The home becomes a village within the village.
• Magnusson Corner Home - This house responds naturally to Miami's balmy climate. Graciously proportioned spaces connect living and dining and an ample covered terrace creates a secluded outdoor space that welcomes cross breezes throughout the building. This house's architectural composition is a tribute to Le Corbusier, the master who redefined the idea of a home.

• Shulman Home - This house derives its spatial and stylistic language from Miami's three traditions: Vernacular, Mediterranean and Modern.

• Hariri Corner Home - The movement of boats and vessels plying the waters around Allison Island was the inspiration for the Aqua-House.
