Among the high-rise condos emerging in Miami, a Bay Harbor Islands building opening in 2025 is standing out for standing small. At eight stories tall, the Indian Creek Residences & Yacht Club will consist of only nine homes spanning half-floor, full-floor and duplex units. Private balconies of each residence offer picturesque views of the water below, which houses six yacht slips.
“The property is inspired by the nautical lines and feminine curves of the yachts and sailboats surrounding the waterway,” says Kobi Karp, the project’s architect, who embraced a midcentury modern style for the building’s curves. Ennea Garden Design, too, was influenced by the environs for the structure’s lush rooftop. “To withstand challenging weather conditions, we’ve chosen all native tree species with a touch of coconut palms,” landscape designer Enzo Enea says.
Naturally, the water also drove Zarifi Design’s decisions for the interiors, which feature Gaggenau appliances, Taj Mahal quartzite countertops and Fantini fixtures. “We designed the homes to complement the views, with open living spaces, soaking tubs and neutral materials that play up the surrounding nature,” designer Linda Zarifi shares.
