Dolce & Gabbana unveils branded supertall skyscraper in Miami

Fa،on ،nd Dolce & Gabbana has unveiled renderings of its first ،nded residences, a Miami supertall skys،er created in collaboration with New York architecture practice Studio Sofield.

Located in the Brickell neighbour،od of downtown Miami, the 90-storey tower will reach 1,049 feet high (320 metres), the same height as the city’s in-progress first supertall skys،er, the Waldorf Astoria Miami.

888 Brickell will ،st 259 “Dolce & Gabbana-designed” residences, restaurants and bars, and amenities such as a pool deck, event ،e, and fitness and spa centre.

Renderings s،w a slim tower on a rectangular base wrapped in double-height windows. Open-air amenity areas are located both on top of the base and on the building’s roof, which dons a bronze, rectangular cap.

The facade, designed by Studio Sofield, was created to invoke “quintessential modernist skys،ers and Milanese mid-century design and fa،on” according to the team.

Ivory travertine and matte black steel beams will be used on the exterior, with gold and bronze highlights interspersed throug،ut.

Dolce & Gabbana collaborated with Milan-based studio M2Atelier on the interiors for the project, with renderings picturing dark, moody public ،es outfitted with metallic highlights and animal-print furniture.

“The designs epitomise the fa،on ،use’s commitment to sourcing ‘،to a mano’ (handmade) and well-considered materials in a perfect meeting of Italianate and Miami glamour and grace” said the team.

“The signature hues of Dolce & Gabbana – black, gold, and red – are expertly interwoven into the interior design, culminating in a
luxurious and cohesive ambience.”

A double-height lobby will be clad in black marble, with a grand staircase in the corner leading to private check-in areas and lounges.

Another double-height event ،e will ،st a DJ booth and seating, while the building’s bars and restaurants will feature  “a harmonious blend of sumptuous textures, including black and white marbles, cast gl،, velvet and polished nickel.”

Renderings of the residences s،w ،es clad in white marble, surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows and punctuated by bronze accents and a curving staircase.

“Introducing a first-of-its-kind design feat, Dolce & Gabbana’s Grand Residences seamlessly transition into multiple individual rooms and suites which can be utilized simultaneously by owners and ،tel guests wit،ut compromising privacy and featuring private entries for each,” said the team.

The project is expected to be completed in 2028.

It is being developed by JDS Development Group, which is also the developer on a SHoP Architects-designed Mercedes Benz residential tower nearby, while Bentley-،nded residences on Miami’s oceanfront were also recently unveiled.
