The Perigon Reveals First Look At New Renderings of Sprawling Lush Oceanfront Property

The Perigon, an iconic diamond-shaped luxury condominium tower designed by international architecture firm OMA, has revealed a first look at the 2.5 acres of prime oceanfront land at The Perigon in Miami Beach. Never-before-seen renderings perfectly illustrate how the entirety of the ground plane, featuring lush greenery by Gustafson Porter + Bowman, an oceanfront pool and private beach club, has been designed as a private oasis for residents to meander through the nature trails encircling the tower, relax in the sun and enjoy poolside dining services curated by Michelin-starred Chef Shaun Hergatt, and foster an intimate connection to South Florida's balmy environment.

Since vast acreage is a rare standout feature scarcely found in other waterfront high rises, the 73-residence tower was meticulously designed by OMA to appear to "float" above the ground. The resulting first level space augments The Perigon's array of five-star amenities centered around fostering a connection to the balmy environment, which includes a private beach club overlooking the sands below, pristine swimming pools lined with cabanas and expansive gardens encircling the entirety of the property. Gustafson Porter + Bowman, the landscape architecture firm responsible for the Eiffel Tower's green spaces, designed The Perigon's gardens to feature a meandering nature trail, secret alcoves, water features and diverse biomes that include distinct plant families in every corner to facilitate a peaceful, dynamic experience throughout the grounds.

The 17-story building features a bold, terraced design that rises 200 feet above the shoreline and offers 1,250 lineal feet of the tower’s gardens. Conceived as a series of diamond-shaped “towers” rotated to orient and optimizes views from all residences toward the Atlantic Ocean, Biscayne Bay, and the Miami skyline. The design for the interlocking towers will obtain LEED Gold certification when completed.

Nestled along the tranquil stretch of sand between Indian Creek and the Atlantic Ocean at 5333 Collins Avenue, The Perigon is slated for completion in 2026. The tower offers 73 two- to four-bedroom condominiums ranging from 2,100 to 6,700 square feet, with eight private guest suites offered to residents only. Starting at $4.15 million, the residences include the highest quality finishes, direct water views, 10-foot ceiling heights and 10- to 12-foot-deep wraparound balconies. Additional amenities at The Perigon include a private oceanfront restaurant with a five-star chef at the helm, an oceanfront swimming pool with cabanas, a terraced fitness center with water views, as well as a children’s playroom, billiards room, private salon, screening room and more.

The Perigon is a joint venture between Mast Capital, one of South Florida’s most active real estate development and investment firms, and Starwood Capital Group, a leading global private investment firm. Sales and marketing are exclusively managed by Douglas Elliman Development Marketing.

Global Investment Management Firm Pretium Signs Lease At Eighteen Sunset In Miami Beach's Sunset Harbour

Specialized investment management firm Pretium plans to open an office at Deco Capital Group’s Eighteen Sunset, a Class A office building being constructed at 1769 Purdy Avenue in Miami Beach. Pretium has leased 11,591 square feet on the fourth floor of the project, which together with other completed leases represents approximately 80% of all available office space at Eighteen Sunset. About 9,500 square feet in the building is still available. The project is currently rising after securing a $60 million construction loan last year.

“Miami Beach is excited to welcome Pretium to our community where our business assistance programs and incentives ease the ability of doing business, and our culture and lifestyle benefit business leaders, create jobs, and attract and retain talent,” shared Miami Beach Mayor Dan Gelber.

With more than 4,500 employees, Pretium has over $50 billion in assets under management across U.S. residential real estate, residential credit and corporate credit. Pretium’s Miami Beach office will span more than half of the fourth floor in the five-story building. The company will join a multibillion-dollar, publicly traded Toronto firm that signed a 20,000 square foot lease earlier this year. On the ground floor, Uchiko, a restaurant concept by award-winning Hai Hospitality group, will occupy approximately 6,000 square feet of space. Stephen Rutchik, executive managing director of Colliers International Florida, and Neil King, vice chairman of CBRE New York, represented Deco Capital Group in the transaction, and Daniel Posy, executive managing director of JLL New York, represented Pretium.

“Pretium is excited to be expanding its office presence to Miami, a region with a growing financial services community,” said Laura Cappiello, Pretium’s Chief Human Resources Officer. “Having an office in Miami will enable Pretium to attract and retain premium talent and broaden the pool of diverse candidates we seek to recruit.”

“Miami Beach has seen a significant increase in inbound investment, and the most fundamental change to the city’s economy has been the drive to develop Class A, best-in-class office space capable of accommodating the needs of preeminent global companies,” said Bradley Colmer, founder of Deco Capital Group. “Pretium operates from exemplary offices in international financial hubs and is proud to be one of the trailblazing companies relocating or expanding and establishing a more substantial presence in South Florida. Pretium is drawn to Eighteen Sunset for its quality design, prime waterfront location in the Sunset Harbour neighborhood and market-leading amenities and views.”

The City of Miami Beach has assisted a number of technology and financial services companies in expanding or relocating their operations after launching meaningful business incentive programs and business concierge services in 2021. Pretium participated in the city’s Expedited Plan Review and Permitting Program which offers an accelerated permitting review process of 10 business days. The city’s Job Creation Incentive Program offers an incentive of up to $60,000 per year for up to four years for businesses in targeted industries that create or relocate a minimum of 10 new, full-time jobs with average annual wages that meet or exceed 125% of Miami-Dade County or Florida average wages.

“It is really encouraging to see great companies, like Pretium and others, take advantage of Miami Beach’s programs and services,” affirmed Miami Beach City Manager Alina Hudak. “These programs were created to diversify the Miami Beach economy for the benefit of the entire community.”

Mast Capital and Starwood Capital Group Launch The Perigon, Currently Miami-Beach's Only Beachfront Pre-Construction Condo

A joint venture between Mast Capital and an affiliate of Starwood Capital Group led by Barry Sternlicht has announced the launch of reservations at The Perigon, Miami Beach’s only pre-construction, ultra-luxury condominium directly on Miami Beach’s oceanfront. Designed by a team of the world’s most respected design luminaries, The Perigon will become one of the most recognizable buildings in the Mid Beach neighborhood, and will be the area’s first residential project designed by OMA New York, the internationally acclaimed firm founded by Rem Koolhaas.

Situated at 5333 Collins Avenue along the tranquil stretch of sand between Indian Creek and the Atlantic Ocean, The Perigon was conceived as Miami Beach’s premier destination for oceanfront living. Its bold, terraced design rises 17 stories above the shoreline, and features elegant interiors by Tara Bernerd, the inimitable interior architect known for her hotel and private yacht projects. The tower also offers a seamless connection to nature, via lush gardens and serene water features envisioned by Gustafson Porter+Bowman, the landscape architecture firm responsible for redesigning the green space at the Eiffel Tower and delivering the powerful Princess Diana Memorial Fountain in London’s Hyde Park.

Featuring 82 residences, The Perigon offers spacious two- to four-bedroom residences designed by Tara Bernerd, with light-filled open floor plans ranging in size from 2,100 to 6,700 square feet. The estates in the sky include the highest quality finishes, direct water views, 10-foot ceiling heights, 10- to 12-foot deep wraparound terraces and custom Italian kitchen cabinetry designed by Tara Bernerd. They will blend the intimacy of a single-family villa with the vistas of a high-rise tower, taking advantage of the building location’s unique potential for dual-waterfront living.

The architecture at The Perigon is another key component to the condominium’s high-end lifestyle. OMA designed the building as a series of “towers,” rotated to orient and enhance views from all residences toward the Atlantic Ocean, while also optimizing views of Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline overlooking Miami Beach. The towers are merged and lifted into a singular form that responds to the panoramic views and frees the ground-plane below, creating the appearance that the building is only gently touching the ground. The resulting reduced footprint maximizes space for the gardens below. The design for the interlocking towers will obtain LEED Gold certification when completed.

The Perigon will feature world-class service and unrivaled amenity spaces that embrace its tranquil setting on the water. An oceanfront restaurant, speakeasy-style bar and a conservatory with a daily breakfast bar will be exclusively available to residents, and a sunrise lounge and terrace will be accessible for events and entertaining. Residents can enjoy a beachfront swimming pool and hot tub, and a fully landscaped deck complete with cabanas and sunbeds. Other amenities include a spa with sauna and treatment rooms, ocean view fitness center, children’s playroom, private salon, screening room, wine room, guest suites and a dramatic double-height lobby lounge. The spaces will be activated by a dedicated lifestyle concierge and residential butler. Residents can also take advantage of 24-hour security, valet, house car, pool and beach service, in-residence dining and more.

Situated in the Mid Beach neighborhood, residents at The Perigon will be at the center of the city and its most exciting offerings. Perfectly balancing relaxation and exploration, the quiet enclave adjacent to the famous La Gorce Country Club offers the luxury of privacy, as well as close proximity to major art and cultural institutions like the Bass Museum and famous shopping destinations like Bal Harbour Shops. Residents enjoy the city’s iconic Art Deco architecture, annual events like Art Basel Miami Beach that attracts thousands of visitors to the city and some of the best new restaurants in the area.

Pricing will start at $3 million, with construction expected to complete in 2025. Sales and marketing for The Perigon is exclusively handled by Douglas Elliman Development Marketing.

Miami Design District Becomes The First Neighborhood In The World To Achieve LEED Gold Certification

The Miami Design District has achieved the prestigious LEED Gold certification, becoming the first neighborhood in the world to achieve the Gold level (LEED ND: Built v4 Gold). Miami Design District marks the third neighborhood in the world to achieve LEED certification, which means “Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design,” for Neighborhood Development (version 4 Built). The trendy, luxury shopping, art and entertainment enclave is setting the bar for sustainable development in communities across the country.

Miami Design District is home to a number of luxury fashion houses, art galleries, fine dining experiences, and cafés. The open-air, pedestrian-friendly neighborhood, known for its many distinct and artistic façades, notably boasts a highly energy-efficient infrastructure.

Amongst the many sustainability aspects of the neighborhood’s redevelopment focus, several to highlight include: the re-infiltration of rainwater and restored natural hydrology made possible by the additions of expansive vegetated and high-albedo white roofs and tree-shaded streets, enhanced walkable streets and pedestrian walkways that promote community connectivity and encourage visitors to spend more time outdoors, and the integration of innovations from other Green Building Standards, including the WELL's feature "Beauty and Mindful Design," which incorporates different design elements and artwork that lend to a more calming environment.

In 2011 Island Planning Corporation (IPC) was brought in by DACRA and L Catterton Real Estate to design the Landscape Masterplan for the neighborhood. Miami Design District was inspired by the worlds leading shopping districts including Fifth Avenue and Rodeo Drive. IPC helped to establish a sophisticated visual continuity throughout the neighborhood, with mature canopy-covered streets and walkways, sculptural specimen trees, and extensive rooftop gardens.

Spinnaker Group, one of the most respected leaders in the green-building movement, provided LEED for Neighborhood Development consulting and energy modeling for this distinctive project, marking the neighborhood’s 4th earned LEED certification. Spinnaker Group also provided LEED Consulting, Building Commissioning and Energy Modeling for three other landmark projects within the Miami Design District including the Garden Building, featuring an intensive rooftop garden lounge designed by Island Planning Corporation (LEED Gold certified in 2013) - Palm Court, featuring underground parking to allow for a large open courtyard above for pedestrians and artwork, such as the Buckminster Fuller’s futuristic Fly’s Eye Dome (LEED Gold certified in 2015) - and most recently, Paradise Plaza, featuring intensive green roofs and underground parking with a large plaza above for pedestrians and artwork (LEED Gold certified in 2020).
