Aman Group has unveiled ATMA, a new brand focused on wellness and sport, and picked Brickell for its first location. The company announced the brand on Tuesday and describes it as a concept centered on performance and longevity. ATMA Miami is planned for 1111 Brickell Bay Drive, where a 1,049-foot tower would hold a hotel, branded residences and a private members club.
According to Aman, ATMA combines wellness programming and sports facilities with nutrition-focused dining, design and events. The name means “the spirit” or “the true self” in Sanskrit, and the company says the brand will eventually include both urban and remote locations. Tennis champion Novak Djokovic is the brand’s global partner, and he will lead the longevity, nutrition, racquet and wellness programming.
The tower itself first surfaced last month, when Floridian Development reported an FAA filing for a structure reaching 1,049 feet above mean sea level, or 1,042 feet above ground. That filing also indicated ATMA Miami would be the first of two towers, with a second phase eventually replacing the office building next door at 1001 Brickell Bay Drive. The site connects directly to a five-mile Baywalk and would include its own adjacent marina.
OKO Group and Oak Row Equities are developing the project, with completion scheduled for 2031. The partnership closed on a $520 million land purchase at the start of the year, which at the time was the largest land sale ever recorded in Florida. That record held until a few weeks ago, when Ken Griffin completed his $1.1 billion all-cash acquisition of Mana Wynwood.
Many specifics remain unannounced, including the number of hotel rooms and residences. What is known is that the branded residences will range from one to five-plus bedrooms, with six-bedroom penthouses at the top of the tower and views running east to west.
Owners would have exclusive use of a private pool, a fitness center with yoga and personal training studios, thermal spa facilities, a residents’ lounge, and co-working space, in addition to the hotel’s amenities. They would also receive priority nomination to ATMA Club.
The largest single component is a 120,000-square-foot spa and wellness center, which Aman says will be one of the largest of its kind in Miami. Designed with Djokovic, it includes a racquet club with indoor tennis, padel and other courts overlooking Biscayne Bay, along with a fitness center featuring high-intensity group and private training studios, a medical wellness center, and recovery spaces. The program also includes restaurants focused on nutrition, bars with live music, and spaces for performances and events.
SHoP Architects is the architect behind the tower, which rises from a podium and features curved balconies and floor-to-ceiling windows. Studio Paolo Ferrari handled the interiors, which the design team says combine natural forms with engineered precession.
Aman Group Chairman and CEO Vlad Doronin said ATMA builds on the company’s nearly four-decade history, extending its focus on design, privacy and service into wellness and performance. He described ATMA Miami as the first expression of the brand’s vision, and said the company intends to create “an extraordinary destination that embodies the energy of the city”.
