Lakewalk at Hamlin

Lakewalk at Hamlonmentally sensitive, while being beautiful, functional, and ecoin is part of a master-planned town center in Horizons West, on Orlando’s western beltway. A mixture of 2- and 3-story buildings creates a village experience by maintaining porous edges, allowing residents to walk to neighboring mixed-use components, including grocery store options, retail, and a cineplex. As a luxury multifamily development, Lakewalk at Hamlin is walkable and envirnomically viable.

One design challenge was finding a way to direct stormwater to the adjacent lake in an unobtrusive way. Our solution involved creating rock-filled drainage channels that accommodate the water management needs by flowing under entrance walkway footbridges. This creative problem-solving produced an added benefit: unique entranceways into the ground-floor units that reinforce a more personal and attractive look to the buildings’ ground floor.

Lakewalk is one of several CBA-designed developments in the 900-acre Hamlin community. We pay homage to the region’s agricultural heritage by utilizing thematic storytelling elements that set each project apart. In the case of Lakewalk, the clubhouse design takes inspiration from citrus packing plants, where you’ll find exposed wood construction and aged industrial metal beams that harken back to an important era in Florida’s history.
