Text description provided by architect.
Miami has developed a contemporary vernacular of condominiums that includes brise-soleil-style balconies with floor-to-ceiling windows that offer panoramic water views.
We have taken these indigenous elements of the new Miami skyline and continue the evolution of their local architectural language.
Coconut Grove’s identity is closely tied to its untamed jungle-like vegetation, yet the center sadly lacks this quality.
Our design “re-groves” the heart of Coconut Grove, and create a landscape in tune with the surroundings.
The two towers of the Grove at Grand Bay respond to the surroundings and to each other, to give optimum views at every level.
The towers take off from the ground to capture the full breadth of panoramic views from sailboat bays and the marina to the Miami skyline.
A lush abundance of plant-life blankets over the parking and amenity spaces, folding down to create pedestrian and vehicular access to the towers.
