Kobi Karp, Martin Brudnizki and Tara Bernerd join forces for Four Seasons Fort Lauderdale
– Nadim Ashi, Fort Partners founder
Ground has broken on the US market’s latest Four Seasons hotel – a ‘civilised jungle’ in Fort Lauderdale with a third of the property dedicated to green space.
The 22-storey Four Seasons Hotel and Private Residences Fort Lauderdale has been planned by Miami architect Kobi Karp, with 90 private residences, 130 guest rooms and “unmatched access to a lifestyle of leading amenities, services and design.”
The interior architecture and design is led by Tara Bernerd, with Martin Brudnizki creating the property’s restaurants, lounges and pool areas.
Amenities include an oceanfront terrace on the third floor with dual pool experiences and luxury cabanas; a Four Seasons spa; a fitness centre; a signature all-day restaurant with interior and alfresco seating; a pool bar; and an outdoor lounge.
Landscape architect Fernando Wong has designed the property’s gardens and internal green spaces, incorporating large palm trees and native plants on both the ground floor and the third-floor oceanfront pool deck.
The tallest floors of the building will feature four residential penthouses and three exclusive Sky Homes with dramatic 20ft (6m) ceilings.
Real estate firm Fort Partners has developed the project, situated on Fort Lauderdale Beach Boulevard – representing its third collaboration with Four Seasons.
“We commissioned a team of global minds to create an exemplary hotel and residential property unlike any other in Fort Lauderdale,” said founder Nadim Ashi. “Four Seasons is defining Fort Lauderdale as a global destination and is capturing an international audience. We are committed to developing a world-class hotel and lifestyle.”
Fort Partners’ other assets include Norman’s Cay in the Bahamas; Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach; and Four Seasons Hotel and Residences at The Surf Club in Florida.
Founded in 1960, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts currently operates 110 hotels and resorts, and 38 residential properties in city centres and resort destinations in 46 countries, with more than 50 projects under planning or development.
