High-rise living is redefining the way we experience urban spaces, transforming skylines into breathtaking works of art and innovation. Architects and developers are pushing boundaries like never before, using cutting-edge technologies and visionary designs to create communities that soar above cities and set new standards for modern living.

To celebrate and drive this wave of innovation, Zonda, the parent company of ARCHITECT, is bringing together industry leaders for Elevate, its second annual luxury multifamily conference, at the iconic Fontainebleau Miami Beach, Dec. 9–11. The event will feature a stellar lineup of experts shaping the future of high-rise living, including Louise Sunshine, partner at Sunshine Direct Worldwide and senior manager at SHVO; Alex Witkoff, co-CEO, Witkoff; and Simon S. Mass, CEO and founder, The Condo Store Group of Companies. The conference will also honor Gregg Pasquarelli, founding partner of SHoP Architects, as “Architect of the Year,” and Nick Pérez, president of condominium development at the Related Group, as “Developer of the Year.” Here, we explore the groundbreaking work of Pasquarelli and Pérez and their visions for the future of high-rise luxury living.
