The architectural design lives up to its name, offering a contemporary aesthetic. Signature endcap towers flanking each side of the building break up the façade, creating a sense of hierarchy and visual interest. At night, illuminated metal fenestration transforms the building into a beacon, enhancing its identity.

The residential portion with a grand lobby features a 12-foot-high feature wall and a striking reception desk. This space flows into the heart of the community, a bistro-bar that serves as the main gathering area. With its impressive 24-foot ceiling height, this space mimics a resort hotel’s grand lobby, creating an atmosphere encouraging social engagement.

The design addresses the needs of independent seniors while providing a luxury living experience. Amenity areas are accessible from the central space on the ground level, offering a club-like atmosphere. The inclusion of banquette and bar seating in the bistro area is a testament to the project’s commitment to creating hospitality-driven spaces.

The dining experience is crafted to offer privacy and flexibility. The restaurant, while connected to the main space, is designed with low walls and portals that create a sense of privacy. This thoughtful approach ensures the dining area remains inviting even outside peak hours.

The Contemporary Miami offers a variety of one- and two-bedroom open plans ranging from 596 to 1,021 square feet. Residences feature a fully equipped kitchen with quartz countertops, expansive floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors, and spa-inspired baths. The variety of layouts acknowledges the changing dynamics of seniors who may still be in the workforce or desire space for visiting families. Including work-from-home spaces in some units demonstrates a forward-thinking approach to living and working in a post-COVID world.

Amenities are scaled to be intimate yet flexible, catering to various interests and needs. From the warm, inviting library to the multipurpose room that transforms from a daytime lecture space to an evening movie theater, each area is designed for resident engagement. The rooftop swimming pool, sundeck, and exterior walking path with fitness stations provide ample opportunities for outdoor enjoyment and physical well-being.
