CASA IN FLORIDA: The Armani Group has secured a pool of leading local real estate developers to erect a residential development in Pompano Beach, Fla., set to include 28 units.
“This new residential project, the third in the United States, is one of the most exclusive of those I have carried out to date. I found the integration between the architecture, the natural landscape and the ocean particularly inspiring, and I was excited about the possibility of working for a demanding clientele, being able to convey my vision with complete freedom,” said Giorgio Armani.
The oceanfront Armani/Casa Residences Pompano Beach located at 1550 North Ocean Boulevard will comprise two distinct towers with one large-scale apartment per floor boasting a 360-degree view. They will be designed by the G3 Architecture studio while the landscape project will be spearheaded by the West 8 firm.
“We’re excited to partner with renowned fashion designer Giorgio Armani as he expands his brand of luxury condos,” said Tomas Sinisterra of SP Developments, one of the real estate developers involved. Others taking part in the project include Vertical Developments, WellDuo and GCF Development.
“Armani/Casa Residences Pompano Beach introduces a new standard of elegance to Pompano Beach, making it a premier destination for those seeking refined condominium living and exceptional design,” Sinisterra added.
The complex will begin accepting condo reservations this fall.
Armani’s other two residential complexes in the U.S. in Miami and New York, bowed in 2016 and last month, respectively. The latter is housed inside the company’s new building at 760 Madison Avenue, on the corner of East 65th Street, and includes the new Giorgio Armani and Armani/Casa boutiques and an Armani/Ristorante, in addition to residential units.
The Armani/Casa interior design studio has already realized residential projects in other cities including Rio De Janeiro, London, Dubai, Beijing, Tel Aviv, Manila, Mumbai and Istanbul.
Armani has built a successful interior design business over more than two decades.
His first hotel opened in Dubai in 2010 in the Burj Khalifa, followed by one in Milan a year later, both in a venture with Dubai-based developer Emaar Properties PJSC that was established in 2005.
An Armani Hotel will rise in Diriyah, a 300-year-old site located a 15-minute drive from Riyadh, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which is expected to be completed in 2026.
