From Pre-Launch to Launch

For months this project was the most talked-about development in Miami, known only by

working names and early reporting. The official launch is here — and the details confirm

everything the market was anticipating, with a few important specifics now locked in. Below is

the updated, buyer-ready breakdown.

Why This Project Matters

The Design District has always been Miami's creative-luxury hub — art, fashion, dining, and

some of the city's most architecturally significant streetscapes. Fouquet's marks its decisive shift

toward full-time residential living: a hotel-serviced condominium that pairs design-driven homes

with five-star hospitality and street-level culture. When a brand of Fouquet's caliber plants a flag

in a neighborhood, it brings a gravitational pull — dining destinations, press, foot traffic, and the

kind of credibility that attracts more of the same.

The Vision at a Glance

• Name: Fouquet's Hotel & Residences, Miami Design District
• Address: 39 NE 39th Street, Miami, FL 33137
• Residences: 143 one- to four-bedroom homes, all with private terraces and many with dens
• Tower: A 25-story tower rising on nearly two acres
• Amenities: Over 40,000 SF of indoor and outdoor residential and hotel amenities
• Architecture: Sir David Chipperfield (2023 Pritzker Prize)
• Interiors: RDAI, Paris
• Landscape: Perry Guillot Inc.
• Hospitality: Fouquet's, signature brand of the Barrière Group
• Developers: Raycliff Capital, Fort Partners, Miami Design District Associates, and
• Constellation Hotels Holding

Note: earlier pre-launch reporting described a two-tower program (a 25-story condo building plus a 12-

story hotel building) with 85 hotel rooms and 20 condo-hotel units. The official materials describe a single

25-story tower and do not confirm those figures, so we're treating the earlier breakdown as reported

rather than final. We'll confirm directly with the developer.

Architecture — A Global Name, a Miami Expression

Chipperfield's design language is one of clarity, proportion, and permanence — architecture that

anchors rather than announces. A colonnade frames the arrival sequence, while glass and

mineral cladding balance transparency with mass and respond to Miami's shifting light

throughout the day. We're obsessed with the building's exterior rhythm: fluted columns wrapping

the façade in a way that belongs in the Design District — elevated, intentional, and confident

without trying too hard.

Inside, Parisian studio RDAI distills each residence to essential forms — terrazzo, fluted walls,

warm woods, soft neutrals, and floor-to-ceiling glass. Kitchens feature oak and lacquered

cabinetry, Silestone countertops, and a full suite of Sub-Zero appliances. Landscape

architecture is by Perry Guillot.

Amenities & Services by Fouquet's

More than 40,000 SF of amenities, anchored by a 70-foot rooftop pool overlooking the

Intracoastal Waterway and South Beach. Together, the Level 3 and rooftop terraces offer

roughly 15,300 SF of resident-exclusive outdoor space.

• 70-ft rooftop pool, bar, and shaded terraces
• Spa with sauna, steam room, cold plunge, and jacuzzi
• Fitness center and private training studio; yoga/Pilates and treatment rooms
• Golf simulator, screening room, lounge and party room, meeting room
• Entertaining suite, catering kitchen, children's playroom, garden and courtyard
• Two restaurants, one bar, and a patisserie in-building
• À la carte Fouquet's services: housekeeping, pantry stocking, dog walking, babysitting, personal training, car detailing, laundry and tailoring, and chauffeur

The Pedigree Behind It

Fouquet's is the signature collection of the Barrière Group — a pioneer of French-style

hospitality with a global portfolio of more than 20 hotels across exclusive destinations including

Paris, New York, Saint-Barth, and Courchevel. Miami marks Fouquet's debut in the city,

following the 2022 opening of Fouquet's New York in Tribeca.

The development partnership is a genuine powerhouse: Raycliff Capital, Fort Partners (Four

Seasons Surf Club; Coconut Grove and Fort Lauderdale), Miami Design District Associates

(Dacra/Craig Robins, L Catterton, Brookfield), and Constellation Hotels Holding (owner of

Maybourne). This isn't a 'maybe' group.

What Buyers Should Know

• Lifestyle and service: hotel-serviced living elevates staffing, amenities, and day-to-day experience.
• Ownership structure: hotel-serviced condominiums can carry usage and rental considerations worth reviewing carefully before contract.
• Monthly costs: hospitality-integrated operations influence fees and shared-service budgets over time.
• Privacy and access: the best projects clearly separate resident and hotel circulation, amenities, and elevators.

The Bigger Story: One Lifestyle Corridor

The Design District's evolution only strengthens the corridor running Midtown → Design District

→ Wynwood → Edgewater. For buyers who want the Design District lifestyle now, Midtown

delivers immediate walkability and proven, full-service buildings while landmark new

development like Fouquet's takes shape just blocks away. The Chipperfield project and

Fouquet's aren't competing stories — they're the same story: Miami's Design District arriving as

a genuine global address.
