Related Group and Alta Developers have officially launched sales at Casa Bella by B&B Italia. The project was launched roughly a month ago through predominantly a whisper campaign and has already achieved 20% sold with reservations of $80 million. The developers have also released a selection of new renderings.
Inspired by the beauty of Italian living, the Casa Bella team is made up of a renowned group of design luminaries, including B&B Italia, one of the world’s premier design companies, internationally recognized for their innovative, iconic and timeless pieces of furniture. Interiors from lauded Italian design firm Lissoni New York and architecture firm Arquitectonica and Enzo Enea round out the vision. Sales are exclusively handled by Fortune International Realty.
"We’ve controlled this parcel for many years now, and with skyrocketing condo demand and dwindling supply, we are finally ready to move on what will be a neighborhood-defining project,” said Jon Paul Pérez, President of Related. “We are in the middle of one of the most robust markets in Related’s history, a trend we expect will pick up further with the launch of Casa Bella.”
Distilling the best of life on the Italian peninsula, the 55-story Casa Bella will instantly transport residents away from the bustling city center, offering a modern, and refined aesthetic rooted in classic design. Piero Lissoni – who also serves as creative director for B&B Italia in addition to being the project’s interior designer – went to great lengths to imbue the property with the Mediterranean region’s unique brand of luxury.
“With Casa Bella, I want to realize a very contemporary project, and what is more contemporary than B&B Italia, the company whose very essence is contemporary?" said Lissoni.
Building on the "worlds away” feel, Casa Bella will offer two full floors of amenity spaces, complete with dedicated entertainment spaces overlooking Biscayne Bay. These amenities range from a spacious party room to a wine vault and tasting lounge, as well as a top-of-the-line private theatre and co-working spaces. A world-class Wellness Center caters to fitness-minded residents, offering professional-level equipment as well as dedicated yoga and spin rooms. For those looking to relax and unwind, the spa facilities offer on-demand massages, facials, blowouts and manicures/pedicures.
Outdoors, Enzo Enea outfits the pool deck with lush Italian-inspired gardens to create an oasis within Downtown Miami. The 78-foot lap pool is surrounded by private cabanas, shaded lounge areas, as well as an open-air lawn for yoga and meditation. A poolside bar and Mediterranean café will have light bites and refreshments on offer. On the 55th floor, residents and guests can access the tower’s rooftop pool and terrace, complete with a state-of-the-art observatory.
Five-star service completes the residential experience including a personal concierge available to assist residents on- or offsite. This includes housekeeping, grocery shopping and delivery, dry cleaning and laundry, nanny and childcare, overnight shoe-shining, pet care services and personal tech support. Additional benefits include preferred tickets to performances and local events and a complimentary one-year membership of the Grand Bay Beach Club in Key Biscayne.
Located at 1400 Biscayne, the 55-story Casa Bella will enjoy a prime location in Miami’s ‘Arts & Entertainment District,’ coming into its own as the heart of the “new Miami.” The property offers buyers stunning views of Biscayne Bay as well as easy access to nearby hotspots such as the Pérez Art Museum Miami, Frost Museum of Science, the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts, FTX Arena. The tower is also just minutes away from Miami Beach and Brickell.
“We are eager to see this exceptional project finally come to life at the right time,” said Raimundo Onetto, Principal & CEO of Alta Developers. “From the masterminds behind the project, to its unparalleled features and amenities, to its location in one of Miami’s fastest evolving neighborhoods, Casa Bella will truly be one of a kind.”
Buyers can choose from a range of floorplans, with the 312 homes ranging from one to four bedrooms. In addition to soaring ceilings and panoramic water views, all residences feature an exquisite selection of European-fixtures and finishes as well as private elevator access. Buyers looking for additional living space can choose from a selection of 24 marquee penthouses ranging from 2,605 to 5,890 square feet. The four upper penthouses feature 12-foot ceilings and wrap-around terraces with incredible water and city views.
For added ease, residents will have the opportunity to work directly with B&B Italia’s celebrated designers to outfit their units. B&B Italia will offer move-in-ready packages with furnishings and décor for each unit type. There is an opportunity for buyers and designers to personalize their units using pieces from B&B Italia collections.
