Announcing the Americas’ Best Property Professionals… We are delighted to celebrate the presentations of the Americas’ Property Awards on the beautiful island of Barbados this year. This prestigious event also serves to promote investment in the region and is sponsored by Barbados Tourism Investment (BTI) and Berger Paints. The Americas is the third section to be judged within the prestigious International Property Awards’ programme and I’m pleased to say that we continue to be amazed at the quality of excellence shown by entrants. Judging is carried out through a meticulous process involving a panel of over 80 experts covering every aspect of the property business. The panel is chaired by two peers from UK Parliament who oversee different categories – Lord Caithness for development and Lord Best for real estate. The judges not only look for the most impressive and innovative projects, they also examine the sustainability and eco-friendliness of every property and development that comes under their scrutiny. While proving functional and practical for their occupants’ use, interior design projects have to be injected with that all-important ‘wow-factor’. Customer service and related services are key elements for success in the real estate agency categories. We look for outstanding customer support and a wide range of property-related services to guide clients through every aspect of the buying and selling processes. Each and every one of the award-winning companies listed in this publication has demonstrated exemplary levels of expertise by competing against exceedingly strong competition from within the length and breadth of the Americas. Many congratulations to all. Helen Shield Editor-in-Chief, International Property & Travel Magazine

   in 1987, Toronto-based Flora Di Menna Designs (FDM) has garnered numerous awards for excellence in design for luxury residences, show homes and suites, corporate offices, sales centres and public spaces. FDM’s approach is to treat every project individually, so that every design is tailored to the specific client and works within their budget and scope. Westwood Luxury Estate Residence involved a collective team working together in creating a meditative calm throughout the property, from the entry gates and front courtyard all the way through to the backyard oasis. The project’s design began after ground was broken and framing had started as the clients felt the original layout would not function to their specifications. FDM redesigned the floor plan and relocated rooms and walls accordingly.

Although the clients wanted to maintain the sense of grandeur and openness that is possible with a home of over 12,500 square feet with 13 foot ceilings, they also wanted to create intimacy and human scale. FDM’s brief was to make each space function individually and within the overall floor plan to ensure a smooth transition between formal and informal areas of the home. The company also provided conceptual drawings for the exterior hard surface landscaping. Balance and symmetry from the front doors overlooking the yard was maintained with proper space planning, appropriate lighting, substantial built-in cabinetry and a material and colour palette that was consistent throughout. These four foundational elements work together to connect all areas, regardless of function or formality.

The club was attracting a host of sports celebrities, musicians and Hollywood stars but its design and décor did not reflect the phenomenal golf course. The corporate board decided to commission FDM to update the club while maintaining its well-established ambience and to make each renovated space multifunctional. Contracted to create the hospitality space required for top-drawer golf events, charity balls, weddings and banquets, FDM selected only the highest quality and most durable materials that would stand up to the high traffic and activity of a thriving golf club. For example, solid quarter-sawn, hand-scraped

oak hardwood floors, leathered finish on granites, modern chrome light fixtures, cowhide and leather upholstery and natural wood and stone materials. The layout and location of the additional spaces provides both privacy and convenience to guests. Upon completion of the project, the owners found that the fiscal revenue surpassed all expectation with facility bookings doubling since the redesign. The new platinum star concierge area and the updated restaurants and lounges have also generated income above expectations. Apart from the appeal of extra revenue, the client derives a great deal of pleasure and enjoyment from the new look that is more contemporary, yet doesn’t detract from the comfortable and established ambience.

 E G H; Grid IQ Innovation Centre is a state-of-the-art, 200,000 square feet facility in Ontario. The $40 million is designed to improve the efficiency, reliability and security of the world’s electrical grids. One of the most innovative areas of the facility is the Innovation Customers Experience Centre. This allows customers to take an interactive, immersive look at GE’s full suite of energy management tools on a 60 foot video wall. FDM was contracted to provide a complete interior design package to bring the new facility to life plus all four floors of office space, common spaces and amenity spaces. The company conducted extensive research in order to fully appreciate the products on offer and then design the appropriate backdrops for the experience.

The aim was to create an environment that would perpetuate GE’s vision and brand of renewable energy, smart technology and efficiency. Complex concepts were simplified through the use of graphics, props and AV equipment throughout the project. The floorplan was designed to expedite traffic flow from space to space but also to inspire group discussion and creativity and to encourage an interactive pursuit of energy solutions. Movement of the 580 staff members was considered in the traffic flow throughout the meeting and common areas. Materials used in the project reflected the commercial and industrial designation of the complex but were honed and refined for comfort. Bright, energising colours and patterns were used to reflect the flow of energy and lighting was used creatively on signage, display panels and feature walls.

 D  more than 35 years’ experience of working in Mexico’s real estate development industry. This has enabled the company to understand the local market’s needs and allowed it to develop innovative and avant-garde offers which have proved trend setting in this sector. Davisa focuses on delivering residential and urban solutions which contribute to increasing the diversity of its clients’ welfare. This is based on sustainable and environmentally-friendly building practices. The company’s business model revolves around comprehensive quality management which concentrates on providing products and excellent services to its customers. This has led to the opening of a training centre to instill excellent skills into those in the construction industry. Parque Centro is the second phase of Davisa’s project to develop a total of 32 hectares in Saltillo, Coahuila, Mexico. The

first one was to give the city a large shopping centre of 44,000m of retail space plus a cinema complex. Now the award-winning Parque Centro is creating a new mixed-use expansion on the site’s remaining 16 hectares. Respecting the area’s cultures and history, the development is inspired by the sarape, a traditional garment typical of Mexico and particularly Saltillo. Made from multiple coloured thread, their designs are unique and have been reflected in Parque Centro’s logo, marketing and landscape design. The project focuses all its energies on satisfying its target market to ensure a sustainable development goal. It will offer a variety of quality services such as open spaces, vertical and horizontal housing, gastronomic dining spaces, educational, corporate and healthcare spaces as well as full service hotels of the highest standards. Parque Centro is also considering the development of a second mall

with a fully-open concept to house well-known fashion companies. One of the development’s primary challenges was to influence consumers into opting for this new urban style of living within a compact city. The use of vertical housing and condominium style apartments is also a whole new concept in Saltillo and so had to be introduced in an appropriate manner. Davisa is focused on creating a compact city with a perspective on simple pedestrian mobility, higher density public transportation and a mixture of land uses to meet the needs of daily life. Ensuring orderly growth with a modern architectural style, Parque Centro will connect landscapes with commerce, providing a new park in the town. The project’s landscape design is being developed in two phases. The first constitutes the main park area and is made up of the urban beach, master kiosk (a three-level, open

sided building under a pergola, complete with terrace), shaded areas and an enormous green. Phase two is inspired by the first and has water mirrors reflecting the project and allowing children to interact with nature. Both phases provide outdoor spaces where people can interact, socialize and enjoy concerts, events, outdoor cinema, sports and many other leisure activities. Parque Centro will include the very latest in technology, materials, architecture, landscaping and sustainability to provide its residents, occupiers and visitors with a world-class compact city in which to live, work and relax. By applying all the benefits of Saltillo such as its varied vegetation, exquisite gastronomy, interesting culture, wonderful climate and, above all, human warmth, Parque Centro has become a modern protagonist for the city; at all times respecting its traditions, history and values.

Christine’s design philosophy upholds that the experience one has in a garden should be unique and rooted in the specific dynamics of the property. Each garden is custom tailored, distilled to its purest composition. Mulholland Hills Residence is an awardwinning example. The landscape provides a cohesive aesthetic to the grounds with a seamless connection to the interior rooms. The design incorporates a diversity of gathering areas for daytime and evening, for quiet, restful time and entertaining as well as ample play areas for children.

Christine’s muse for the property was the personal elegance of the client. The brief was developed to create a landscape that dialogued with the sensibility of the house, that offered the comforts of a resort experience and extended the space with fabulous city and mountain views. Creating an environment that utilized the sensual nature of outdoor living were part of the process. The plantings were chosen to provide strong vertical elements, or clipped green volumes, that look good in every season. Bougainvillea provides colour year-round, while palms, fiscus and boxwood bring continuity and green architecture to the gardens. Full enjoyment of the Los Angeles climate, fragrance, splashes of colour and tranquil, green foliage were all integrated meticulously within the landscape design.

Costa Azul (or ‘Blue Coast’) is a new high-rise development inspired by the Atlantic Ocean. This modern and luxurious 168-apartment project is located in Petropolis, one of the most exclusive and exciting districts in Natal in which to live, work and play. The biggest challenge was to find the land to acquire for residential development in such a popular area. Ritz-G5 however managed to purchase the land due to its strong local contact network and excellent reputation. Its prime hilltop position complements its remarkable design statement with views of Newton Navarro Bridge, the beach and ocean. Costa Azul will comprise three towers named: Forte, Atlantico and Poengi. Forte will

offer three-bedroom residences measuring 96m, while Atlantico and Potengi will offer two-bedroom residences of 53m and 56m. Residents’ first class amenities include a swimming pool, gym, private bar and spa. The internal design of Costa Azul has been carefully thought through by the architects to ensure that space is maximized and suitable for 21st century living. Large windows ensure natural sunlight floods each apartment and high quality bathrooms and appliances are installed as standard. High speed internet and satellite smart televisions are also installed in all apartments. Buyers are able to fully customize their unit to their own individual specification subject to additional payment depending on the materials selected.

Pritzker Prize-winning architect Zaha Hadid is internationally renowned for her revolutionary designs of buildings in premier cities worldwide and was the developers’ first choice for One Thousand Museum. Over the past 30 years, she has become internationally renowned for her designs of sensuous, soaring buildings that push the limits of innovation and blur the lines between art and architecture. Located at 1000 Biscayne Boulevard on a coveted property overlooking Museum Park and Biscayne Bay, One Thousand Museum will be Zaha Hadid’s first residential skyscraper in the Western Hemisphere. Museum Park (formerly known as Bicentennial Park), the

future home of the Pérez Art Museum Miami and the Frost Museum of Science, is rapidly becoming one of Miami’s most prestigious cultural destinations. Rising to 62 stories, One Thousand Museum will be comprised solely of half- and full-floor residences, duplex townhomes and a single duplex penthouse. Over 30,000 square feet of beautifully designed venues for swimming, sunning, socializing, fitness, and pampering cater to only 83 residences, offering the luxury of abundant space. In the lobby, residents’ needs are addressed by highly attentive staff, including a concierge and parking valet as well as security personnel. Additional staff oversee the proper management of all amenities and attend to residents’ requests within them. Outstanding indoor-outdoor wellness and spa facilities occupy two full levels of light-filled space overlooking and opening

It has dedicated indoor areas for movement training and stretching and a landscaped outdoor area for other fitness activities. At the second level, the spa has been designed with private rooms for massage and beauty treatments, steam and sauna rooms and relaxation lounge areas. The buildings also offer a multimedia theatre for private movie screenings, lectures and presentations. Adding to the elegant, contemporary ambience, all interior amenity spaces, including the lobby, wellness and spa levels, aquatic centre and sky lounge, are lightly perfumed with signature scents designed by 12.29 olfactory consultants. These subtle ambient scents are inspired by Zaha Hadid’s architectural vision as well as the lifestyle in Miami’s most prestigious

new residential tower. Upon request and for an additional fee, residences can be scented with one of these custom scents or a unique new scent can be created by 12.29. Residents will enjoy extensive, state-ofthe-art home automation by Crestron, the world leader in lifestyle technology.

RBN’ - interior design project involves the offices of Coimmsa, a company which produces metal racks and containers for the automotive industry. Located in Apocada, a high-density industrial suburb of Monterrey which is part of the state of Nuevo Leon, the area hosts thousands of medium and large-sized companies. These firms are not only responsible for the economic development of the region but also crucial to fulfill the industrial needs of national and international markets. Coimmsa operates both nationally and internationally and has a diverse group of

stakeholders. Therefore, the interior design of its offices needed to convey to users the sensation of being in an international, innovative, professional and solid company. Great emphasis also had to be placed on meticulous attention to detail. Following the company’s operating philosophy of in-house design and manufacture, URBN proposed the use of steel and concrete as the interior design project’s principal materials. All the design elements and finishes were also designed to be made ‘in situ’ with a strong focus on the smallest detail. For example, all concrete floors were cast and all steel floors were manufactured and welded while in place.

The wall’s concrete plates of grey and red were also produced on site in a production line using resin moulds. The idea of combining different materials, rust coloured concrete floors, steel elements in natural and rusted tones and the elegance of light coloured wood and neutral tones of concrete walls attracted the client’s attention and ultimate approval. The mixture of finishes and materials proved to be crucial for this concept to be chosen as the final design. This interior design project is innovative in different ways. The first innovation took place in the rusting process of the steel plates. The conventional rusting process

requires time for the steel to rust and it also lacks control in its process as the natural oxidation is unpredictable. In order to reduce rusting times and to control the process, URBN, in conjunction with a chemical engineer, developed a chemical substance that accelerated the process and then stopped it to control the appearance of the final finish. Another important innovation was that a small concrete slab plant was installed on site. This enabled URBN to design and manufacture every single slab with different colours and textures giving the project a unique look which no other company has managed to achieve.

 M A is a firm with more than 30 years of experience in architecture and design. Its formation has been moulded through time, always bringing authenticity and uniqueness to the spaces it manifests. Casa Cajun is a prime example and aptly described as ‘a house that opens its doors to welcome the environment’. The whole design proposal was created from a principal axis, the symbolic tree located in the centre of the plot. This emanates energy from the inside out, giving life to all spaces and featuring a beautiful garden at its centre. The garden was also born from Katia Marten’s philosophy of ‘healthy architecture’, creating spaces that stimulate good health in those who live there. Textures

such as wood, concrete, stone, metal, water and glass evoke the outside in the interior of the house and together they complement the architecture and maintain harmony. The central patio organises the whole program of the house. This space articulates the property’s social and private areas but also divides it giving the family the privacy they required. Most of Casa Cajun’s social areas have a strong and direct connection with the immediate context through large windows and open spaces. This creates a visual continuity that increases the feeling of spaciousness. With Casa Cajun, Katia Marten has created a unique place where each interior space is designed to nurture, hug and ultimately awaken the senses.

Intensive research and evaluation have resulted in the company constantly providing innovative design proposals and detailed sustainable solutions, exceeding clients’ expectations. Las Piedras is Carla Bechelli Architects’ award-winning project in Los Castanos, an enclosed neighbourhood inside Nordelta. This gated community is made up of several neighbourhoods in the suburbs of Buenos Aires. The client’s requirement was to develop a medium density housing development of 125-130 units with one to three bedrooms and

a single parking space. Common areas include an exterior pool and outdoor space while other leisure amenities are already provided by Nordelta. The properties were designed as a mixture of small and medium-scale villas to merge with their surroundings. They were designed in a terraced shape to widen the overall inner space of the project and give the units enhanced natural sunlight and 180 degree views for their top levels. Organically scattered around a beautiful central park, all villas are given wide views from their private gardens and terraces. Building heights and density increase as the urban plan moves away from the central lake. This arrangement was conceived as being similar to rings rippling outwards from around the lake.

By utilizing unmatched creativity, quality and attention to detail, the company revolutionizes buildings and revitalises neighbourhoods. Turner Development Group’s multi-award winning project Silo Point in Baltimore, Maryland has now achieved an additional accolade for its new penthouse show home. When originally constructed in 1923, the grain elevator became a towering landmark of 24 stories incorporating the grain tower and 13 silos. Turner Development transformed the buildings into the final design of Silo Point, a contemporary mixed-use project featuring urban condominiums.

In honour of the original site in which every silo had a number, all of the residential units are identified with a unique ‘Bin’ number. Hence, from the beginning, the penthouse named Bin 2312 was designed and built to be a signature, world-class showpiece home. It not only had to appeal to local and national prospective buyers but also suit international design tastes. The highest level of detail and finish went into every single element of the penthouse from the design thought process right through to the craftsmanship. Supreme views overlooking all of Baltimore and the water are surpassed only by the premier finishes chosen by the renowned interior designer Jeff Akseizer for a one-of-a-kind living experience at the very top.

The mixed-use development comprises 460 hotel units, offices, business units, a casino and sports bar and a recreational area with restaurant, pool, terrace and spa. The hotel presented a challenge due to the magnitude of the design – an area of approximately 117,263m – and also because of the diversity of uses which required a coordinated multidisciplinary team throughout the whole process. The interior design of Sortis seeks to grant a dynamic experience; one that goes from luxury and elegance to comfort and warmth, creating a

vibrant environment full of energy for global and local visitors. The word Sortis comes from the Latin sors, which means randomness, luck or destiny. Thus the interiors’ concept is taken from the symbol of the four-leaf clover which represents the brand’s identity. This symbol has been used as a design element for decorative patterns, walls and fabrics in the hotel’s lobby, guest rooms, casino and restaurants. Contemporary style is a tendency in Sortis’ interiors, expressed by a fusion of simplicity and edge, using simple forms and ample and luminous spaces. In order to create this understated yet elegant and vivacious ambience, BT has incorporated a neutral colour palette ranging from grey to dark brown contrasted with bright hues like yellow and purple.

The company’s projects range from developing urban residential interiors and houses, to corporate offices, hotels and restaurants. Paula Herrero has presented two latest award-winning interior designs. The first, House on the Slope in Buenos Aires, involved the studio teaming up with the architecture and landscape studios already working on the 1940’s house. The main aim was to recover its original soul while adding contemporary art and ageless furniture. The interiors were given a monochrome continuity on walls, ceilings, doors and windows with uniform light-coloured wood flooring featuring in every room. By working on this essential bareness,

Paula Herrero created a diaphanous and contemporary interior in a house with over 50 years of history. The second successful project was a full-floor apartment in Palermo requiring complete design intervention. The clients were a young couple moving into their first home together who expressed a wish for the apartment to be transformed into their ‘bunker in the city’. An inspiring existing factor was an enormous split-level front facing reception room. Paula Herrero designed this space with a geometric mural and this triggered a series of decisions in which the repetition of straight lines became constant. This is apparent in the design of the bookcases with their predominantly horizontal lines, the Foscarini Behive pendant lights, Acapulco chairs and stylish V bench.

With every project undertaken, the company strives to tailor its designs to suit the individual needs of each client. The client’s brief for the award-winning Palladian Villa in Nordelta near Buenos Aires, called for an impressive building with a number of specific necessities. One of the main priorities was to create a clear division between the villa’s extensive social areas and its more intimate living spaces. Inspiration for the Venetian-style villa was sought from Palladio’s Villa Rotonda and, although the proportions and number of columns are different, other facets are faithfully represented. These include isolating the façade

and the columns, presenting them as the culminating aspect of the space when climbing the villa’s steps. A large entertaining terrace ends with a circular balustrade that forms a balcony offering a panoramic lake view. Set back on either side of this central terrace are two detached arcades set at an angle and featuring galleries. One frames the solarium and pool which flows freely towards the lake and establishes continuity between the two water elements. A courtyard of honour surrounded by arcades constitutes a striking, austere, plant-less enclosure that contrasts with the surrounding vegetation. This internal area allowed Estudio Felli to express its own stylistic language without clashing with the neighbouring properties.

Restoring this 200 year-old property was like reviving a piece of history as it is listed with the Barbados National Trust and located in close proximity to a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

As they had lots of family and friends visiting and occasional exhibitions of work, the property’s design had to be accessible and open to accommodate large numbers of people. The chalet had to fit within budget hence efficiently constructed. On the ground floor, they required a living room integrated with a dining room and kitchen, plus a toilet. They also needed four bedrooms, three with individual bathrooms. The couple wanted to have terraces integrated with the garden to

enjoy al fresco living and to take into account the plot slope when designing the building. The concepts also had to be harmonic with the landscape with an uncomplicated design and feature locally sourced materials. As the plot is relatively small, measuring 500m, increasing the height of the house allowed lateral gaps between Casa Thina and the neighbouring (future) buildings giving the perception of a bigger home and increasing the visibility from inside to the outside, since the plan layout diagonals further extend the spatial perception. This also allows the contemplation of the local environment, mirroring the mountains in the surrounding valley where different levels create impressive viewing points during sunrise and sunset.

T  is a boutique interior design firm which provides highly personalized residential design services to an international client base. The company works to bridge the gap between a project’s full potential and the boundaries imposed by the realities of life, believing that a great design is the culmination of a relationship between a designer, a client and the space. The Box, an award-winning project by P&T, is located in New York City’s Garment District which is the centre for fashion production and design. This unique 4,500 square foot apartment with a 500 square foot terrace is in a 12-storey, pre-war Art Deco building constructed in the 1920s.

The aim of P&T’s design was to maintain as much as possible of the historical elements of the space while upgrading it to provide all modern life necessities. A challenge was to ensure ample entertaining space while not scarifying any of the closed intimate spaces. This was accomplished through space versatility and a game of ‘concealment and revelation’ through a multitude of pivot and pocket doors, numerous glass partitions and through playing with volume vs. void and visual vs. physical barriers/windows. Warmth is incorporated through black gloss wood-panelling as well as furnishings and accessories that revisit the European ‘grandmother’ style by updating it with a contemporary twist.

Lofts Yungay II is Rearquitectura’s awardwinning apartment building located on a hillside in the outskirts of the World Heritage Area of Valparaiso, Chile. One of the client’s

main objectives was to develop a new contemporary building that could blend into the city’s historic landscape. The building was to have 20 apartments, eight parking lots and 20 storage rooms. Apartments were to feature one or two bedrooms, be designed for young couples or single people and have a view. A stepped terrace design was approved as it had a well-balanced mixture of contemporary and vernacular architecture. This gave the project identity and a unique image that was highly attractive. The design also provided a view from all apartments and minimized circulation areas. By designing two or three storey apartments, a lift was unnecessary as from the main entrance users only need to go up or down one floor to enter their apartment.

Strategically located to maximise views of its predominantly forested and mountainous surroundings near the foothills of Sierra de las Cruces and La Marquesa, its design is based on a box set of simple shapes. These generate aesthetical rotated volumes in such a way that enable full advantage to be made of the site’s natural beauty. By creating functional spaces in this way, they serve as a frame to the landscapes each area offers. The land area totals 11,000m and comprises a recreation house, stables, horseriding tracks, green areas and slopes. It features

one particular tree of importance in terms of size and shape and this became the inspiration for the property’s name, Rancho del Arbol. The residence area is laid out in two stories with the ground floor as social space and the first floor as an entirely private zone. The project’s most important requirement is its façade as keeping a mountainous view and allowing natural light to illuminate spaces were of paramount importance to the client. The purpose was to create a dwelling for leisure use which could fuse harmoniously with the natural scenery without compromising the comfort provided by a good architectural distribution of spaces for living and entertaining. The result is a striking residence resembling sculptural artwork within its surrounding ranchland.

 MG & Associates (EM&A) is an architectural design and land planning firm based in the Republic of Panama. The first of EM&A’s award-winning projects is Paseo del Mar in Buenavetura, an exclusive beach community on the Pacific coast of Panama. This private lot of 4,800m is surrounded by single-family residences and so the goal was to integrate the four apartments’ building design into the neighbourhood to appear as if they were a single house. The installation of large windows in the living area allow for merging of the exterior and interior space so that there is no firm boundary between ‘outside’ and ‘inside’. Instead there is a feeling of one continuous space with fabulous views towards the ocean and gardens.

Towerbank Headquarters in El Dorado, Panama involved a 5,800m plot surrounded by busy commercial enterprises yet connected to a quiet residential neighbourhood. The client wanted a design of extraordinary quality that could change the impersonal and distant relationship between bankers and clients. The sculptural and minimalist form of the building reinforces the bank’s distinguished image, portraying a modern and friendly company which is reliable to both its clients and surroundings. In terms of the interior design, an open concept plan was utilized to express a transparency of operations to users, changing the typical appearance and distribution of a banking environment.

VB House is an award-winning project by his company located in a new subdivision called San Nicolas in Montevideo, Uruguay. This building’s 1,000m plot faces two different streets and slopes a full five metres from one to the other. Priority was given to the views and orientation so that the occupants, a couple and their three daughters, could enjoy the panorama all day long including the sunset. Across from the lower street elevation is a beautiful tree-filled park which cannot be developed. The client therefore requested lots of windows facing the park to let in natural light and to highlight the park’s peacefulness

and beauty. The aesthetics are very important and so Jose Luis Andre Architects designed it with an open foyer featuring stairs and a bridge with glass railings. In order to realise an eco-friendly design with superior thermal performance both in winter and in summer, the roof and eaves were designed with substantial overhangs. Due to their specifically engineered dimensions, they provide shade in summer, allow the sun to enter in winter and also protect the house from driving rain. Projected to give the impression that they are floating over the ground, they are aesthetically pleasing while having significant functionality. Nature has also been integrated as an important overall aspect of the property’s design.

Founded in 1980, Kean has constructed numerous national award-winning projects and is recognised as one of the country’s most prominent, premier builders. The hillside property named ‘oZ’ posed numerous construction challenges in terms of its foundation work, surrounding trees, utilities and the geo-thermal system. The structure’s vast size (28,000 square feet over four levels with a 35 foot deep core), the confines of the seven-acre hillside parcel it is built into and the zoning requirements of a conservative village in the heart of the Gold Coast of Long Island were of further concern.

Exteriors literally proved a construction jigsaw puzzle. The detailed facades are ‘woven’ mosaics of masonry, metal flashings, carpentry and elaborate Arris hip roofs comprised of more than 40,000 imported handmade clay roof tiles. As the property’s indoor pool is 35 feet underground, a system had to be designed and implemented to drain any amount of excess water it might accumulate. This superb villa takes full advantage of its dynamic, natural setting and bears the noble hallmarks of another era, despite its actual age. Kean’s inspired definition of a modern masterpiece clad in antique oak and featuring intricate millwork conceals the latest hightech geo-thermal and computer systems for luxurious 21st century living.

Together they are continuing a path of innovation in all fields of design, such as private residences, real estate property development, retail and hospitality. They present stunning projects such as the following award-winning example. Ocean House is located on the prestigious strip of Ocean Drive in Miami Beach, Florida. The boutique property had gone through several incarnations with its start as the Walburne Hotel. It was then converted into a condominium with several design iterations gracing its corridors but all the while maintaining a nod to its historical past as the Walburne Hotel. The client’s brief was simple,

to create a mansion on the beach. With only 18 units to speak of, the scale of the tower was ideal for this purpose. There were many existing conditions that tested Antrobus + Ramirez’s design skills. The first and most important was the mandate by the Miami Beach Historical Preservation Board to keep existing elements of the hotel. Thus, in developing the design approach, it was decided to create a grand staircase to demarcate the ending of the old and the transition into the new. It was designed in keeping with the Art Deco era in which the building was originally created using motifs hand curved by ironworkers. Living spaces have been given a familiar and home-like feel with a nod to the relaxed lifestyle of Miami Beach and the subtlety of sheer luxury.

The Randall Residences in the heart of downtown Oakville, Ontario is a prime, multi-award winning example. The project was launched as a premium luxury condominium development with an exclusive offering of only 36 suites. The challenge was to create residences that exude elegancy and luxury, while still maintaining a legible floorplan for the purchaser to review and choose the suite most suited to their liking. A digital version of the ‘coffee table style’ brochure was produced to allow prospective purchasers to zoom into particular layouts.

Specific attention was given to detail in the exterior elevation, features and finishes to cater to a niche market of purchasers. The exterior detail was inspired by the timeless Beaux Arts movement and the elegance of Paris, with a focus on the grand scale of construction. By using symmetry and balance combined with a commitment to classical tradition, grand, yet understated, style is brought to the building’s façade. No expense was spared with interior materials and finishing. Living spaces feature wide gallery hallways, soaring ceiling heights, rotunda foyers, engineered hardwood and slab marble flooring. Within walking distance of Lake Ontario, restaurants, art galleries, shops and Oakville’s Yacht Club, Randall Residences offer all the comforts of downtown living with the elegance, exclusivity and security of a stylish private residence.

M A,  well-established firm of architects based in Morelos, Mexico was commissioned to design an outstanding house for a family of five. The client wanted a house that would look modern and different from the general properties in the exclusive residential development in Boca del Rio. The family hobby is watersports and so the plot of land chosen for their home includes an open front to the river. View, orientation and openness were DM’s three major design aims. The architectronic scheme is based on a north oriented, L-shaped house intersected by a curved wall that exactly follows the sun’s path, from east to west. This causes a permanent shadow on

the north façade and constant light on the south side. The interiors remain mysterious and detached from the street but totally open on to the house’s green areas. These dynamic living spaces can be adapted in order for them to be completely closed or entirely open. While the weather in the area is mostly wet and warm, there is a heavy rain season in summer and autumn and a windy season in winter. Hence, the building’s design was expected to respond to these extreme season changes. It was also important that the house could coexist with the exterior, integrating with it in good weather and isolating itself from it during bad weather.

The aim for Settlers Barbados was to create an exclusive retreat of residential villas on a site with over 70 metres of uninterrupted beachfront. Careful planning resulted in four blocks of two, three or four connected villas, each overlooking a courtyard and swimming pool. Conceptually, each villa encapsulates the complete celebration of the outdoors.

Based on traditional Caribbean style, The Spa at the Coral Reef Club provides a secluded oasis. This exclusive, world-class facility maximizes views over the tropical gardens without overlooking nearby hotel rooms. Lush planting and water form its key design with each treatment room allowing the choice of an air-conditioned space or to open on to private walled gardens. Limegrove Lifestyle Centre extended the vernacular context of Holetown through the design of 13 buildings of varying scales and heights around a series of courtyards. It caters to visitors and locals who want to experience its restaurants and exclusive retail outlets. Coral stone, bright colours and green, living walls all influenced the overall design.

The client wanted a simple but site responsive home that captures views of a distant valley and rugged outcroppings. The main residence was to be a distinct living area for the owners with detached living quarters for guests and family visitors. Due to the temperate climate outside of the summer months, it was important to focus on

the integration of indoor and outdoor living spaces with multiple outdoor living areas for different seasons. The property’s subtle entry hints at the hillside beyond its doors but once they open into the main courtyard, a dramatic and expansive view is revealed to all who enter. Canyon Vista Residence was designed as a winter home in the Sonoran Desert for retired professionals. The client’s goal was to capture the natural light, views, ruggedness and cacti of the desert. As the client was inspired by the Philip Johnson Glass House, Robinette Architects created a glass house suited to the surrounding desert terrain. Various shading design elements protect the home from the extreme summer temperatures while allowing it to be filled with natural light.
