One Beverly Hills emerges as a $10 billion mixed-use development in the heart of Beverly Hills. Conceived in June 2020 through a joint venture between Cain International and Alagem Capital Group, this visionary project, which spans a sprawling 17.5-acre site, is designed by Foster + Partners and landscape architect RIOS, with Kerry Hill Architects (KHA) designing the Aman Hotel and residences, and Adamson Associates serving as the executive architect for the entire project. The grand-scale project harmoniously combines a private side, including the residential and hotel towers and their amenities, with a public side consisting of a 38,000-square-foot conference center, retail, and 4.5 acres of a public-accessible botanical garden at ground level.
At the project’s core are the two ultra-luxurious Aman-branded residential towers, featuring a combined 197 condominiums ranging from 2,000 to 16,000 square feet, each equipped with balconies with plunge pools. The towers, with rooftop pools and gardens, rise to 31 and 28 stories, respectively, making them the tallest structures in Beverly Hills upon completion. A third, smaller tower will house a 78-key all-suite Aman hotel. The private side of the development will also include a 100,000-square-foot space with extensive wellness facilities for the first fully self-contained Aman Club.
Saiful Bouquet is proud to be the structural engineer for this landmark project. Leveraging our expertise in state-of-the-art Performance Based Seismic Engineering, our team utilized advanced nonlinear earthquake time-history structural analysis to design the three towers for seismic resilience and to develop a robust, efficient, and cost-effective structural system. The typical tower floor consists of a post-tensioned slab with a localized, depressed slab housing the pool, which is designed as a mild reinforced slab. Dual concrete core shear walls provide the seismic bracing for the towers. Seismic joints are introduced to separate the private side of the development from the public side. An additional seismic joint is introduced within the private side to separate the residential tower fronting Santa Monica Boulevard.
Saiful Bouquet is concurrently leading structural design for the restoration and expansion of the iconic Beverly Hilton, which will echo the architectural style of the One Beverly Hills development and bring the green of the gardens into the hotel experience.
Our team is honored to contribute to this urban oasis project, positioned as one of the largest and most environmentally advanced private real estate developments underway in the United States. This project will undoubtedly transform the Beverly Hills skyline and be a commanding presence on the City’s western edge.
The project broke ground on February 8th, 2024, and the One Beverly Hills grand unveiling is slated for early 2028.
