West Palm Beach is in the midst of an identity shift—one shaped by an influx of finance, medicine, and academia. As Goldman Sachs and Cleveland Clinic plan new roots in the city, and Vanderbilt University maps a South Florida presence, a fresh architectural vernacular is quietly taking shape alongside this economic momentum. At the forefront is Carl Levin Architecture + Design (CLA+D), whose recently unveiled exteriors of Lumaire signal a bold redefinition of rental living in the downtown corridor.

Developed by Hyperion Group and located just west of Palm Beach Island, Lumaire rises over Clear Lake as one of the tallest residential additions to the city’s skyline. The building is a study in elevated function and restrained form, an intentional balance of visual interest and urban clarity. Architect Alfonso Jurado led the project’s design, imagining a structure that is at once responsive to its environment and designed to stand out from the homogeneity of nearby developments.

A Skyline Statement in Texture and Perspective

From its patterned gray screening on the lower levels to the sculptural variation of its balconies, Lumaire’s exterior embraces both depth and dynamism. The design plays with light and shadow throughout the day, creating a façade that appears to shift in tone as the sun moves—an effect that lends the building a sense of rhythm and life.

What truly sets Lumaire apart, though, is how it treats elevation as an amenity. All apartments begin above the seventh floor, rising over a sprawling amenity deck that spans more than 40,000 square feet. This positioning allows every residence to capture uninterrupted views of either the Atlantic Ocean horizon at sunrise or Clear Lake at sunset, with seamless indoor-outdoor living designed to maximize South Florida’s year-round climate.

Lumaire’s location and design are a direct response to the city’s evolution as a hub for finance, health innovation, and higher education. Its proximity to the region’s growing number of global players—within walking distance or a quick drive—makes it particularly appealing to professionals who demand both high design and practical lifestyle access.

Beyond the architectural expression, the building supports daily and monthly programming designed around community engagement, health, and leisure—helping to establish it not just as a place to live, but a place to connect and thrive.

As West Palm Beach experiences a renaissance of relevance, Lumaire stands as a compelling symbol of what’s to come: architecture that speaks to place, people, and purpose. And with CLA+D’s visionary touch now fully revealed in its new exterior imagery, it’s clear the city’s skyline is evolving with sophistication in mind.
