Project Description

Coasterra Apartments
LOCATION :: Fort Lauderdale, Florida DATE :: 2024 SIZE :: Mid Rise Residential
Based in Downtown Ft. Lauderdale, FL, this multi-family apartment complex gives you an escape from the hustle and bustle of the financial district and brings you into an Art driven, aesthetic-focused retreat. The concept was derived from elements of the local Arts District and created to bring people together through this combination of art and amenity program.

From a moody, yet eclectic Coffee Lounge, finished with a bespoke mural by a local artist, to a co-working space with a fresh take on the retro aesthetic, residents have ample opportunity to immerse themselves in these gallery-like spaces. Although these coworking spaces have become very important in the post-covid age, with the transition of many to working from home, there are also multiple spaces aimed at entertainment and relaxation. Whether to watch games, the week’s latest reality-series episode, or the latest horror film, the media room offers an intimate space where friends can come together, black out the windows and escape from the busy streets outside. A double-sided fireplace centered in a clubhouse offers a grounded location of ample lounge spaces for friends and family to come together and mingle or celebrate any occasion. The game room provides various options of physical entertainment from billiards tables to shuffleboard as well as foosball and flexible communal tables for playing a variety of board games. Adjacent to these entertainment spaces sits an indoor-outdoor dining area with a Kitchenette for further entertaining. Residents can grab a drink from the keg and sit at the multi-height island or venture outside to the covered patio overlooking the peaceful, serene pool.

An important aspect of the plan and design for this project typology was thinking about the link between programmatic spaces and the resident’s transition between them. Whether you are walking through the mailroom or the thoughtfully curated art gallery, the resident is always met with an art inspired moment that focuses the attention to lighting and detail in the space.

Only 15 minutes from the nearest beach, we wanted to offer the residents an experience that was, in itself, unique, but complementary to the coastal design much of Ft. Lauderdale currently offers.
