Despite the uncertainty in the real estate industry caused by the pandemic, we are currently planning or designing more than 10,000 residential units, in various stages of development, around the globe. 

While we're known for designing some of the world's most recognizable retail and hospitality destinations, the firm has greatly expanded its scope, designing award-winning residential and mixed-use projects for more than a decade.

"The pandemic is a challenging time for every single country, but the need for more housing - particularly when it is designed in an innovative and thoughtful way - is as great as it has ever been and many developers are moving ahead to prepare for a more urban future," said Paul Martinkovic, JERDE Chief Executive Officer. "Our experience designing successful hospitality and retail projects —places that attract people —gives us a unique design perspective that translates into an appealing residential experience."

Among the JERDE-designed projects currently under development are:

San Gabriel Valley Mixed-Use, located in in the San Gabriel Valley of Southern California, just outside of Los Angeles. Currently in the entitlement phase, this lifestyle destination is comprised of just over 100 residential units atop two levels of thoughtfully programmed retail catering to both residents and visitors alike across multiple income strata.

Distrito Armida, located in Monterrey, Mexico, and developed by GM Capital. Part of a larger live-work-play masterplan designed by JERDE, the development will include 426 residential units spread among three towers that are 23 floors apiece.

Maryam Island, located in the United Arab Emirates. Currently under construction and masterplanned by JERDE, this new community will include more than 4,200 residential units.

Zhuji Park Central, located in the City of Zhuji, approximately 150 miles from Shanghai. Also under construction and set to open by the end of the year, the project features nearly 800 residential overlooking a grand park and retail development, all designed by JERDE.
