Jade Signature Sunny Isles: Herzog & de Meuron Oceanfront Condo Buyer's Guide (2026)

Jade Signature is the 57-story oceanfront condominium at 16901 Collins Avenue in Sunny Isles Beach, developed by Fortune International Group and designed by Herzog & de Meuron -- the Basel-based firm awarded the 2001 Pritzker Prize. Jade Signature is Herzog & de Meuron's first residential project in Florida and one of only a handful of Pritzker-designed condominium towers on the entire Miami oceanfront.

The tower holds 191 residences across one- to five-bedroom flow-through layouts plus penthouses, with interiors by Pierre-Yves Rochon (PYR) of Paris and landscape by Miami's Raymond Jungles Inc. Fortune International topped Jade Signature out at 57 stories in October 2016 and delivered the building with a temporary certificate of occupancy in 2018. In the resale market since delivery, the building has consistently traded at some of the highest per-square-foot pricing in Sunny Isles Beach.

The Quick Take

Where is Jade Signature?

Jade Signature sits on the Sunny Isles Beach oceanfront at 16901 Collins Avenue, mid-way along the barrier island strip between Bal Harbour to the south and Hallandale Beach to the north. The Atlantic runs directly off the ground-level pool deck; Collins Avenue runs the full length of the oceanfront strand.

Neighborhood geography:

• Bal Harbour Shops -- roughly one mile south (the Neiman Marcus, Saks, Chanel, Goyard, Gucci, Saint Laurent Miami luxury retail anchor)
• Aventura Mall -- roughly three miles west
• South Beach -- about 15 minutes south by car via Collins
• Haulover Park and Haulover Inlet -- immediately south of Sunny Isles; the marina, boat ramp, and Haulover Cut connecting to Biscayne Bay
• Oleta River State Park -- kayak and mangrove system across the Intracoastal
• Miami International Airport -- roughly 25 minutes via SR-826

Sunny Isles Beach is a 1997-incorporated city sitting on a barrier island stretch known for tower-style oceanfront residential. Trump Grande, Turnberry Ocean Colony, Porsche Design Tower, Muse, Estates at Acqualina, Regalia, and the Jade collection all sit within a couple of miles of Jade Signature on Collins Avenue.

Who's Behind Jade Signature?

Fortune International Group is the developer. Founded in 1983 by Edgardo Defortuna, an Argentine transplant who moved to Miami for an MBA at the University of Miami, Fortune combines development, in-house brokerage, and multi-country international sales and marketing under one roof.

Fortune's Jade collection on the Sunny Isles oceanfront includes:

• Jade Beach (2009), 17001 Collins
• Jade Ocean (2009), 17121 Collins -- Carlos Ott
• Jade Signature (2018), 16901 Collins -- Herzog & de Meuron

Fortune's broader Miami-area portfolio also includes the Auberge Beach Residences & Spa in Fort Lauderdale (2019), Hyde Resort & Residences in Hollywood (2017, with Related Group), and The Ritz-Carlton Residences Sunny Isles Beach (2019). Fortune has developed more than 30 residential towers and marketed and sold over 120 buildings across the region.

Fortune is also a principal on Faena Residences Miami on the Miami River in partnership with KAR Properties and Alan Faena, currently in pre-construction.

Architecture and Design

Herzog & de Meuron is the design architect. Founded in Basel, Switzerland in 1978 by Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron, the firm was awarded the 2001 Pritzker Prize -- shared by both principals as the first Swiss laureates in the prize's history. The Pritzker ceremony was held on May 7, 2001 at Thomas Jefferson's Monticello.

Herzog & de Meuron's built portfolio includes:

• Tate Modern in London (2000) -- the Bankside Power Station conversion that established the firm's international profile
• Beijing National Stadium (2008) -- the "Bird's Nest" designed in collaboration with Ai Weiwei for the Summer Olympics
• 56 Leonard Street in Manhattan (2017) -- the 57-story Tribeca residential tower known as the "Jenga" building
• Allianz Arena in Munich
• Elbphilharmonie Hamburg
• 1111 Lincoln Road in Miami Beach (2010) -- the Herzog & de Meuron-designed parking garage that reset expectations for what parking architecture could be

Jade Signature is the firm's first residential project in Florida.

The Jade Signature design leans on three moves:

1. A parallelogram footprint rather than a rectangle -- the plan angles the tower to minimize shadow on the ocean-facing beach and maximize direct sun on the oceanfront residences
2. Extended slab edges that push the terrace deep beyond the glass line, adding roughly 30 percent to the effective floor area per residence and creating a rhythm of horizontal fins on the elevations
3. Structural columns expressed on the exterior between the slab edges, giving the tower its unmistakable ribbed vertical geometry

The building tapers gradually toward the top, and the reinforced concrete structure carries the load through the expressed columns rather than an interior core-only system.

Interiors are by Pierre-Yves Rochon (PYR), the Paris-based firm most identified with the interior design of the Four Seasons George V in Paris, Four Seasons Ten Trinity Square in London, and the Ritz Paris restoration. Rochon's Jade Signature palette is anchored on Italian marble, custom Italian cabinetry, and integrated wood tones.

Landscape is by Raymond Jungles Inc., the Miami firm founded by landscape architect Raymond Jungles in 1982 and known for tropical, biodiverse, water-integrated compositions. The ground plane wraps a zero-edge lagoon pool into a landscaped beach-to-tower transition with a signature 65,000-pound Kapok tree installed during construction as a landscape anchor.

Residences at Jade Signature

The published configuration:

• 191 residences total across the 57-story tower
• One- to five-bedroom flow-through layouts plus penthouses
• Residence sizes: approximately 1,378 to 11,661 interior square feet
• Flow-through floor plans -- each residence carries both Atlantic and Intracoastal exposures
• 10-foot ceilings on standard residences (higher in penthouses)
• Floor-to-ceiling glass
• Italian marble flooring and surfaces
• Gaggenau and Sub-Zero appliances
• Custom Italian cabinetry
• Deep terraces integrated to interior space -- effective usable area roughly 30 percent above the interior footprint
• Private elevator entry to residences
• Panoramic Atlantic Ocean, Intracoastal Waterway, and city exposures

Resale market since delivery has typically transacted at $1,100 to $2,000+ per square foot depending on floor, exposure, and finish level. As of Q2 2026, active listings have run from approximately $2M to $7M on standard residences with penthouse product to $35M+. Inventory is tightly held -- Jade Signature units come to market slowly and clear quickly relative to comparable Sunny Isles supply.

Amenities

Three full floors of amenities anchor Jade Signature -- ground-plane beach level, mid-tower wellness, and upper-floor social. Published amenities:

Pool and beach

• Zero-entry oceanfront swimming pool -- lagoon-style with beach-to-pool transition designed by Raymond Jungles
• Poolside cabanas and hot tub
• Beach service and direct beach access
• Bar and grill restaurant poolside
• Wine bar

Fitness and wellness

• Beachfront fitness center programmed by Anatomy -- the same wellness operator behind Anatomy on Lincoln Road
• Full-service spa with the first Florida Tata Harper spa presence
• Hammam, sauna, and steam room
• Water therapy terrace
• Manicure and pedicure treatment room

Residents' social

• Residents' lounge
• Library
• Children's playroom
• Teens' tech lounge
• Business center
• Screening room

Service

• 24-hour concierge
• 24-hour valet
• Beach attendants
• In-residence dining and housekeeping

The amenity program was sized to the 191-unit count -- so density-per-amenity is meaningfully lower than the 300-500-unit Sunny Isles towers immediately adjacent.

How Jade Signature Compares to Other Sunny Isles Oceanfront Condos

Sunny Isles is arguably the deepest oceanfront ultra-luxury condo market in Miami-Dade. Jade Signature slots at the top of the delivered-oceanfront line:

A few distinctions:

• The only Pritzker-laureate design on the Sunny Isles oceanfront. Herzog & de Meuron sits alongside Foster + Partners (Faena House on Miami Beach) and Kengo Kuma (Aman Miami Beach, pre-construction) at the top of the Miami design roster. Regalia is Arquitectonica; Turnberry is Zapata; Porsche and Bentley are Sieger Suarez.
• The flow-through floor plate. Every residence has both Atlantic and Intracoastal exposure. That's rare across the Sunny Isles high-rise inventory, which mostly plans as east-only oceanfront or west-only bayfront.
• Structural design as identity. The extruded slab edges and expressed columns are the front elevation. Owners buy the architecture as much as the address.
• Amenity-to-unit ratio. 191 units sharing a fully three-level amenity program is a lower density than the 300-unit-plus builds immediately adjacent.

The Sunny Isles Beach Neighborhood

Sunny Isles Beach occupies the barrier-island stretch from Haulover Inlet in the south to the Hallandale Beach line in the north, about two miles of Atlantic oceanfront. The city was incorporated in 1997 after decades as an unincorporated Miami-Dade beach strip.

Anchors within a short drive:

Retail and dining

• Bal Harbour Shops at 9700 Collins -- Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Chanel, Goyard, Gucci, Saint Laurent, Le Zoo, Carpaccio, Makoto, Hillstone. Roughly one mile south.
• Aventura Mall -- the country's largest mall by GLA, three miles west.
• Local dining on Sunny Isles Collins -- Il Mulino at Acqualina, Baia Beach Club at Mondrian, and the classic Sunny Isles Bulgarian and Eastern European anchors along Collins.

Parks and water

• Haulover Park boat ramp and marina
• Oleta River State Park -- kayak and mangrove network across the Intracoastal
• Sunny Isles Beach oceanfront strand -- uninterrupted north to Pier Park

Connectivity

• Collins Avenue (A1A) -- south to South Beach, north to Hollywood and Fort Lauderdale
• William Lehman Causeway (SR 856) -- direct west to Aventura and I-95
• Miami International Airport -- roughly 25 minutes via SR-826
• Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport -- roughly 20-25 minutes north

Sunny Isles buyers tend to skew international -- Eastern European, Russian, Latin American, Israeli, and Turkish are all meaningful cohorts in the neighborhood buyer mix. The Jade Signature buyer set has generally sat at the top of that international pool.

Fortune's Jade collection on Sunny Isles Beach: Jade Beach (2009) and Jade Ocean (2009, Carlos Ott) sit next door on the Sunny Isles oceanfront strand. Jade Signature (2018, Herzog & de Meuron) is the tallest and most recent of the three, and the only one designed by a Pritzker laureate.

Bottom Line

Jade Signature is Herzog & de Meuron's first Florida residential building, Fortune International Group's flagship on the Sunny Isles oceanfront, and one of a very small group of Pritzker-designed condominium towers on the Miami-Dade coastline. The 191 residences trade actively but tightly on the resale market, with the flow-through floor plate and expressed structural columns as the enduring buyer draw. For buyers who want an architecturally serious, delivered oceanfront condo in Sunny Isles Beach, this is the shortlist entry.
