A bayfront tower named for the lily, and shaped like one.

LiLLi takes its name from a flower, and its form follows the cue. Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture — the studio whose founding principal drew the Burj Khalifa — softened the corners and articulated the balconies until the facade reads as a slow cadence of light and shadow above Biscayne Bay.

OKO Group kept the building boutique: 117 residences across 53 floors, two or three to a landing, each reached by a private elevator. The range runs from one-bedroom homes to garden estates and penthouses, every one with a balcony that turns toward the bay, the beach, or the skyline.

The interiors, also by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill, stay quiet and tactile — oak or porcelain underfoot, marble in the kitchens, Gaggenau behind custom millwork, ceilings reaching as high as twelve feet. You notice the materials before you notice anything else.

What sets LiLLi apart is its premise. The amenities are organized around four pillars — Movement, Recovery, Nourishment, Connection — with a movement studio, an infrared sauna, a cold plunge, and a waterfront garden given over to how residents actually live, day to day, over years.
