Developer and Architectural Design
Fisher Island Holdings spearheaded the development of Palazzo Del Sol, marking a pivotal addition to the island’s luxury real estate offerings. Recognizing the demand for high-end, secluded residences, Fisher Island Holdings commissioned
Kobi Karp Architecture & Interior Design to design the building. Known for its sophisticated projects in South Florida, Kobi Karp designed Palazzo Del Sol to integrate seamlessly with Fisher Island’s lush surroundings and Mediterranean architectural influences while incorporating contemporary features.
Palazzo Del Sol’s interior design was led by
Antrobus + Ramirez, who employed a modern aesthetic that blends seamlessly with the Mediterranean Revival exterior. The interiors feature premium finishes, including Italian marble floors, European cabinetry, and custom lighting, which create a warm, elegant ambiance. The design emphasizes open layouts and expansive windows to maximize views of the ocean, Miami skyline, and Biscayne Bay.
History of Fisher Island and Palazzo Del Sol
Fisher Island itself has a unique history that began with
Carl G. Fisher, a real estate developer who initially owned the island. In 1925, Fisher traded it to
William K. Vanderbilt II in exchange for a luxury yacht. Vanderbilt’s estate later transformed into one of the most exclusive residential communities in the U.S. By the late 20th century, Fisher Island began a major transformation into a luxury neighborhood, accessible only by private ferry, yacht, or helicopter. Palazzo Del Sol was developed as part of this ongoing vision to enhance the island’s luxury real estate portfolio, with Fisher Island Holdings focusing on attracting both local and international buyers seeking privacy, exclusivity, and opulent amenities.
