The Luxe Life
Ultra-luxe condos with designer flair are reshaping global real estate. These aren’t just homes. They’re immersive, name-brand lifestyles. And they’re coming to Greater Phoenix. Today on LUXE BLOG, we discuss them.
Status Symbols With Front Doors
From Paris to Miami to Dubai, branded residences are surging. Think luxury condos infused with the identity of fashion powerhouses, design legends, and five-star hospitality icons. The appeal? Prestige, craftsmanship, and exclusivity all wrapped into your living room.
- More than 400 global projects now exist
- Market has grown 150% in a decade
- Valued at $66 billion as of 2024
- Fashion houses like D&G, Fendi, Armani are in
- Hotel names like Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis lead the way
- Buyers crave high-touch, low-key service
This isn’t just about a logo on a lobby. It’s about fully realized brand experiences you can live inside.
Scottsdale Joins The Party
Branded residences are finally making their mark in Greater Phoenix. First up? FENDI Private Residences, a sleek mid-rise building planned at The Palmeraie in Paradise Valley. This exclusive enclave will house just 41 fully residential units.
- Located at The Ritz-Carlton
- Pricing projected to start in the $3 million range
- Floorplans expected to begin at 3,000 square feet
- Full-time residences, not condotel units
Although the FENDI project has faced delays tied to broader development timelines, insiders are confident it’s moving forward. And it’s just the beginning.
New Buzz At The Parque
Keep an eye on North Scottsdale. A new luxury development, The Parque, recently submitted its first-phase plans to the city in March 2025. Early whispers suggest a second branded residence concept may rise here too.
- Located near Kierland Commons & Scottsdale Quarter
- Phase one includes upscale condos and green space
- Rumored branded tower planned for later phase
- Developers targeting fashion-forward clientele
If built, this could mark Scottsdale’s second major branded project. Another signal that high-style living is heading west.

Why Buyers Want Logos On Their Leases
The branded lifestyle isn’t just for show. Buyers are gravitating to these properties because they offer rare alignment of taste, quality, and experience.
- Interiors curated by designer names
- Amenities shaped by hospitality experts
- Signature services like in-home tailoring or spa treatments
- Resale values often outperform unbranded peers
These homes feel like an extension of a favorite handbag, watch, or resort stay. It’s living, but upgraded.
Big Names Building Big Dreams
In Miami, the 888 Brickell Dolce & Gabbana tower includes 90 stories of curated opulence. In Switzerland, Fendi crafted residences in Crans-Montana with interiors designed by their boutique architect. Dubai? Baccarat, Armani, and Bulgari all have footprints.
- Custom furniture lines (think D&G Casa or Fendi Casa)
- Finishes that echo iconic accessories
- On-site restaurants, spas, and private clubs
These are branded worlds, not just buildings. And the clientele—celebs, pro athletes, execs—want that complete package.
