Bugatti unveils Miami skyscraper as first US branded residence

Car brand Bugatti has revealed plans for a 60-storey skyscraper on the Miami River, which will be designed by US architecture studio Brandon Haw Architecture with interiors by Yabu Pushelberg.

Named Bugatti Residences Miami, the development will be the car brand's first branded residence in the US. It follows plans for its first residential skyscraper, set to be built in Dubai, which were revealed in 2023.

The tower will be the latest car-branded skyscraper to be built in the city, joining developments by luxury car brands Porsche, Bentley, Mercedes-Benz and Aston Martin.

Designed by Brandon Haw Architecture, the 60-storey skyscraper directly on the Miami River is being developed by Prosper Group and Versluys Group.

Renderings of the building, released today, show a tower split into four distinct blocks, with double-height spaces between.

The interiors of the 183 apartments and four penthouses will be designed by Yabu Pushelberg.

According to Bugatti, the design was informed by both the architecture of Miami and the form of supercars, with a nod to the brand's C line – a motif used on Bugatti cars from the 1930s.

"Miami's bold architecture, creative spirit and global appeal make it a compelling setting for our next Bugatti Residences project," said Bugatti International managing director Wiebke Ståhl.

"Our vision is to consider every aspect, from exquisite design to seamless service and operations, creating a branded residential experience unlike any other."

The skyscraper is planned for Miami's Brickell neighbourhood, which is currently undergoing a wave of development. Major developments in the area include a 54-storey skyscraper designed by Foster + Partners and a 51-storey tower by SOM, while fashion brand Dolce & Gabbana is developing a 90-storey tower in the neighbourhood.

"Bugatti Residences Miami unites one of luxury's most respected brands with a city shaping the future of high-end real estate," said Prosper Group CEO Jay Roberts

"Miami has become the global epicenter for wealth migration, institutional investment and sophisticated living, with Brickell embodying the prime, waterfront site that is central to Prosper Group’s development strategy. It is a natural home for Bugatti’s branded residential debut in the United States."
