Aston at Uptown is a 261-unit, market-rate multifamily community in Altamonte Springs, Florida, developed at 74 dwelling units per acre on less than 3.5 acres. The five-story podium-wrap project uses Type III-A wood-frame construction over a central structured parking garage with a stormwater vault below, allowing the site to achieve high residential yield while preserving a courtyard-centered amenity environment. The unit mix includes studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom residences ranging from 538 to 1,388 square feet, and the development was advanced in coordination with the City of Altamonte Springs to secure density bonuses and maximize housing delivery in the Uptown district.

Architecture and interior design were developed as a coordinated strategy to differentiate the project within a dense infill, walkable mixed-use setting. The architectural expression combines brick, light and dark panel systems, black iron detailing, and crisp vertical massing to establish a contemporary urban character, while the interior design extends that identity through a hospitality-influenced clubhouse environment shaped by warm wood tones, jewel-toned accents, textured finishes, and geometric detailing. Standout amenities include a two-story clubroom with a grand stair and visual connection to the courtyard, coworking space, a 24-hour fitness center with yoga studio, and a game lounge with simulator components, representing a broader resident amenity program without listing it in full. Together, the planning, architecture, and interior design strategies support competitive differentiation, leasing appeal, and long-term asset value.
