History

Doronin founded the Miami-based OKO Group in 2015.[2] The company develops real estate projects in Miami and New York.

In early 2016, OKO opened an office in Miami’s Design District at 4100 Northeast Second Avenue. The office spans about 3500 square feet.[3] The word “oko” means eye in Proto-Slavic and the name expresses Doronin’s vision.[4]

In 2014, Doronin and a partner paid $48 million[5] to purchase a 44-year-old condo that overlooks Biscayne Bay in Miami at 175 S.E. 25th Street.[6] The building, built in 1971, sits on close to an acre of Bayfront property with 150 feet of waterfront. The OKO Group plans to build a 47-story luxury condo building on the site.[7]

In October 2016, it was announced that Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture would design the condo tower, the firm's first project in Miami.[6]

In July 2016, the firm announced a residential development of a 649-foot, 57-story tower, Missoni Baia, located at 700 Northeast 26th Terrace.[8] This will be the first residential project for the Italian fashion house, Missoni, with their home collection and designs used throughout the building's public spaces. The architect, Hani Rashid of Asymptote Architecture, was inspired by modern minimalist artists, Sol LeWitt, Dan Flavin and James Turrell. The project's landscaping is by Swiss landscape architect Enzo Enea.[9] and the interiors were designed by New York-based Paris Forino.[10]

In November 2016, OKO Group paid $54 million for a two-acre site fronting Biscayne Bay, Florida. The property at 720 Northeast 27th Street was purchased from Jesuit Fathers of the Province of the Antilles, and has 475 feet of water frontage.[11][12]

In May 2020, The Oko Group broke ground on Una Residences, a 47-story, 135-unit apartment tower situated in the Brickell area of Miami. The house is the first big condo building to begin development in the metropolitan heart of Miami in 2020.[13]

Leadership

In June 2020, Vanessa Grout joined OKO Group of Vladislav Doronin as CEO of OKO Real Estate and manages the distribution and promotion of the company's ventures in Miami and New York.[14]

gollark: I was thinking more like that WiFi covert channel thing where they flip the phase of something something carrier signal, using firmware hax on mobile phone WiFi hardware.
gollark: Alternatively, encrypted traffic could be disguised as noise or covertly encoded into unencrypted GEORGEnet data, for purposes.
gollark: It is a shame that we can't place arbitrary microwave-reflective objects in arbitrary locations above Earth, or GEORGEnet would be able to work better.
gollark: Which is something, for APIONET traffic.
gollark: Also, even if we can't encrypt packets, we *can* sign them for authenticity.
