ELLE, the globally renowned fashion and lifestyle media brand, is set to make its mark on the real estate scene with the introduction of ELLE Residences Miami. This venture, a collaboration with Vertical Developments and Urban Network Capital Group (UNCG), represents a significant expansion for ELLE, combining the brand’s signature Parisian influence with Miami’s vibrant culture.
Located in the dynamic Edgewater neighborhood, the 25-story ELLE Residences Miami will offer 180 turnkey units designed to reflect ELLE's chic and trendsetting aesthetic. The interiors, curated by The One Atelier, are set to embody the innovative and inspirational design seen in ELLE DECOR, blending modern elegance with a relaxed, global consciousness.
ELLE Residences Miami will feature floor plans ranging from 450 to 845 square feet, with one or two bedrooms available. The project will also include a collection of penthouses. Prices start at $525,000, and flexible rental capabilities will allow owners to make their residences available for short-term use, enhancing the living experience with both high-touch service and resort-style amenities.
Fernando de Nuñez y Lugones, CEO of Vertical Developments, emphasized the project’s significance, stating, “This groundbreaking residential project will debut a new legacy for ELLE. Our aspiration is not just to build a tower but create an ownership experience that amplifies modernity with the timeless sophistication of ELLE’s nearly 80-year history.”
Robert Thorne, CEO of UNCG, highlighted the unique nature of the development: “Combining the city’s distinctive cultural diversity and dynamism with the brand’s eclectic, spirited ethos and contemporary, Parisian allure, ELLE Residences Miami will truly be one of a kind.”
The amenities span two expansive floors and cater to wellness enthusiasts with a high-tech gym, outdoor fitness lawn, and meditation garden. A luxurious spa will feature steam, sauna, and cold plunge facilities. Residents can gather at the gourmet summer kitchen, relax at the fire pit, or enjoy a movie at the outdoor theater. The French Riviera-inspired sundeck includes a resort pool and private cabanas, while a rooftop pool and resident-only lounge offer panoramic views and entertainment options.
The architectural design, led by Behar Font & Partners, aims to unite thoughtful spaces with a striking façade, ensuring the development stands out in Miami’s skyline.
Constance Benqué, CEO of ELLE International and Lagardère News, expressed excitement about the project: “ELLE’s long-standing brand success stems from our pursuit of innovation, and we take pride in continuing to challenge the status quo as ELLE enters a new era with residences. This project will represent a groundbreaking concept, offering captivating gateways for owners and residents to experience condo living through a fresh lens and the visionary perspective of ELLE.”
The Edgewater location places residents at the heart of Miami, with easy access to Midtown, the Design District, and Wynwood. Nearby attractions include the Miami Design District, Brickell City Centre, Kaseya Center, Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, and the beaches. Proximity to Miami International Airport further enhances convenience, making travel seamless for residents.
