Swire Properties has officially opened sales for the highly anticipated North Tower of The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami, marking one of the most significant ultra-luxury residential moments of the year. Set on the privately held island of Brickell Key, the new tower joins its sister South Tower in shaping what is destined to become Mandarin Oriental’s North American flagship and one of Miami’s defining branded residential destinations.

Scheduled for completion in 2030, the North Tower introduces 70 two to four-bedroom Private Residences with pricing anticipated to begin at $3.9 million. The building will also house 28 turnkey, fully furnished Hotel Residences starting at $3.8 million, already 75 percent reserved, underscoring the extraordinary demand for the development. The milestone comes on the heels of the South Tower’s continued success, which launched in April 2024 and has surpassed $1.2 billion in sales, including $127 million in the last month alone.

A Design Vision Led by Laura Gonzalez

The North Tower marks the U.S. residential debut of AD 100 Parisian designer Laura Gonzalez, whose signature maximalist aesthetic has shaped global landmarks such as Cartier boutiques, the Saint James Hotel, and Printemps’ first New York location. Her interiors for the Private Residences are rooted in Miami’s natural palette, soft curves, and organic textures.

“For The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami, we sought to capture the spirit of Brickell Key. We wove in a Miami-inspired palette of blues and sands, along with organic textures and soft, curving forms. This approach aimed to infuse each home with soul, fostering joy and a true sense of belonging for every resident.”
Laura Gonzalez, AD100 Interior Designer

The tower’s exterior, crafted by internationally acclaimed architecture firm Kohn Pedersen Fox, extends the development’s sculptural identity, mirroring the architectural language introduced in the South Tower.

Inside the North Tower: Crafted Luxury and Elevated Kitchens

Rising 426 feet, the North Tower presents dual arrival experiences: one dedicated to hotel guests and a separate, private entry exclusively for residents. Both open into lush outdoor landscapes designed by Thai landscape firm SHMA, setting a serene tone for the tower’s resort-inspired ambiance.

Residences are framed by floor-to-ceiling windows and expansive private terraces, creating a seamless connection to the surrounding water and city views. Interiors are expected to feature:

  • Custom Molteni&C cabinetry in warm or cool palettes

  • Dornbracht fixtures

  • State-of-the-art Gaggenau appliances

  • Undercounter wine storage for up to 34 bottles

  • Spa-inspired primary bathrooms with custom vanities and backlit mirrors

These details reinforce a design ethos centered on ease, sophistication, and the pleasure of daily ritual.
