Casa Bella Residences by B&B Italia

Casa Bella Residences by B&B Italia is the Italian design house's first branded residential building in the world, facing the Adrienne Arsht Center in Downtown Miami's Arts & Entertainment District: 1400 Biscayne Boulevard. It is in the home stretch of construction —topped off in 2025, delivery around 2026— with more than 90% of inventory already reserved, so few lines remain at the developer's price before resale begins.

Developed by Related Group with Alta Developers and designed by Arquitectonica, the project brings 319 residences in a tower of roughly 56 floors and 649 feet, with the undulating balcony silhouette that already reads on the Downtown skyline. What sets it apart is not just the name: B&B Italia —through Piero Lissoni— curated the interiors, the custom Italian kitchens and the baths, and Enzo Enea signed the landscape.

For today's buyer the angle has shifted: with construction nearly complete and more than 90% sold, execution risk is low —but so is available inventory. This page orders that —which lines remain in pre-sale, how to choose exposure and floor, and the buying process— so you enter with judgment before the asset moves to the resale market.

What makes the project different

Casa Bella's value is not just the B&B Italia name: it is combining the design house's first branded residence, the Arquitectonica signature and an irreplaceable cultural location facing the Arsht. Among what defines the offering:

• First B&B Italia residences the Italian design house's first branded residential building in the world, with interiors, kitchens and baths curated by Piero Lissoni —a design standard that supports resale value.
• Arquitectonica architecture a tower of undulating balconies at roughly 56 floors and 649 feet, a silhouette differentiator against Downtown's generic towers.
• Related Group + Alta Developers Florida's largest condo developer alongside Alta, with a track record of execution and delivery in Miami.
• Facing the Adrienne Arsht Center at 1400 Biscayne, in the Arts & Entertainment District, steps from the performing-arts center, the bay and Downtown's museums.

How to choose a line in pre-sale

In pre-sale you pay for a floor plan, not a finished unit. Three variables decide whether the line you reserve appreciates:

The view

Orientation commands the premium: open-water lines sell out first and appreciate most between reservation and delivery. Reserve the best exposure your budget allows.

The floor

Price per square foot rises with height. In pre-sale, the gap between low and high floors usually widens toward delivery: the buyer who locks a high floor early captures that difference.

The line and the delivery

Each line has its own floor plan, terrace and deposit schedule. Choosing the right line —and understanding the payment timeline to delivery— is the difference between a reservation that appreciates and one that stalls. This is where a buyer-side advisor adds real value.

The preconstruction thesis

Buying in preconstruction changes the risk profile, but Casa Bella sits at a different point in the cycle: the tower has already topped off and delivery is imminent, so construction risk is marginal. The flip side is that more than 90% is already sold —the developer-price window is closing and only select lines remain.

The right question is not whether Casa Bella is good —the B&B Italia brand, Arquitectonica and Related back it— but which line remains and at what price per square foot against what is already trading. For the investor dollarizing into a designer trophy asset with rental demand in Miami's cultural heart, securing one of the last units before resale is the play.
