The renowned Italian design powerhouse, Pininfarina, has gained its stellar reputation primarily through its long-standing association with Ferrari. The design firm, established in May 1930, embarked on a partnership with Ferrari in the 1950s that continued well into the 21st century. Today, Pininfarina has expanded its portfolio, encompassing not only automotive design but also architectural and engineering ventures.
Andare Residences by Pininfarina represents the latest chapter in their remarkable journey, a venture that is sure to captivate both car enthusiasts and aficionados of architectural excellence. Nestled within the skyline of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, this striking 45-story tower stands as a collaborative creation between Pininfarina and CFE Architects. It is poised to unveil 163 tailor-made residences, marking a significant milestone as the first luxury condominium development on Las Olas Boulevard in two decades and the inaugural project by Pininfarina in Broward County.
The tower’s design, a testament to Pininfarina’s ingenuity, boasts a distinct undulating facade adorned with wraparound balconies that artfully mimic the fluidity of water. Stepping into the building, one is greeted by an awe-inspiring double-height lobby encased in floor-to-ceiling windows. The communal areas and amenity spaces within the tower feature generous wall spaces dedicated to museum-quality artwork, and the overarching theme throughout is one of biophilia, seamlessly integrating natural elements.
Samuele Sordi, Chief Architect at Pininfarina, elucidates the design philosophy behind Andare Residences: “Pininfarina’s design elements in living spaces align with its ethos by emphasizing timeless aesthetics, high-quality materials, and innovative furnishings. We prioritize ergonomics and well-being to create comfortable and functional living environments that enhance residents’ quality of life. We provide a luxurious and holistic living experience reminiscent of high-end hospitality and offer residents a one-of-a-kind elevated lifestyle. The integration of technology, spatial harmony, customization, incorporation of art, and environmental considerations further reflect the essence of Pininfarina’s design philosophy.”
The residences themselves range in size from 1,800 to 4,300 square feet and offer open-concept living spaces, floor-to-ceiling windows, and generously proportioned wraparound balconies. Each residence features a gourmet kitchen adorned with custom Italian cabinetry, spa-inspired bathrooms, and state-of-the-art smart home technology. Abundant natural light floods the interiors, showcasing high-end materials, a calming neutral color palette, and plush textures. Pricing for these opulent havens starts at “.6 million for a two-bedroom residence.
Andare Residences transcends mere living quarters; it offers the experience of residing in a luxury hotel. Over 35,000 square feet of amenities span across three floors, encompassing a health and wellness center, a pickleball court, a wellness spa complete with salt rooms, saunas, steam rooms, and massage rooms, as well as hot and cold plunge pools. A sports lounge replete with game tables, private conference rooms, and a club lounge cater to various leisurely pursuits. A rooftop deck crowns the edifice, featuring two swimming pools, private cabanas, a sun deck, and exclusive food and beverage services. Pininfarina also partnered with landscape architect Architectural Alliance Landscaping to craft verdant outdoor spaces inspired by the maritime heritage of the city, adorning both the rooftop deck and the exterior of the tower.
Nestled just two miles from the beach, Andare Residences places residents within reach of Fort Lauderdale’s cosmopolitan offerings while maintaining proximity to the joys of outdoor recreation.
Nick Pérez, President of Related’s Condominium Division, underscores the property’s unique connection to its surroundings: “Andare’s location at the foot of the Fort Lauderdale Riverwalk expansion enables it to forge a seamless connection between Tunnel Top Park and the pedestrian walkway that encircles the building. The very essence of ‘Las Olas,’ translated as ‘the waves,’ served as a muse for the property. This inspiration is elegantly embodied in the fluid lines of the building’s rounded balconies, which mimic the gentle rocking of waves and pay homage to the maritime heritage deeply rooted in the neighborhood.”
