The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami, represents Swire Properties' commitment to sustainability, resiliency, and mission to become the world's most sustainable developer by 2030. Swire Properties endeavors to achieve net carbon neutrality across its portfolio by implementing a multitude of sustainable design strategies. At The Residences, the design team adopted a passive design strategy to optimize energy use while maximizing daylight and cross-ventilation for resident comfort and well-being. Extensive plantings at various levels of the building provide heat island reduction and prevent heat absorption of the site. As part of Swire’s wellness pledge, its developments always prioritize the provision of high-quality indoor air for residents. The development also implements air filtration, provides separation between residential units to mitigate air transfer, and prioritizes the selection of low-emitting building materials. Solar panels will offset power consumption and promote renewable energy adoption, while each parking space will be configured for EV charging. Finally, Swire will address climate resiliency through the refurbishment of the surrounding seawall and elevation of the development site to combat sea level rise, along with expanding the Brickell Key Baywalk around the full perimeter of the island, which further reinforces the firm's commitment to placemaking that benefits the entire community.
