Manny Angelo Varas & Giorgio Armani

MV Group USA is an award-winning Design-Build firm that specializes in collaborating with the world's top designers. Located in Miami, FL, and founded in 2007 by President and CEO Manny Varas, MV Group is ranked as the top builder for residences over $6M and ranked #2 for Top Florida builders by Build Zoom. The company has a diverse portfolio of clients; not only have they worked with large businesses looking to relocate to South Florida, but they are also sought after by top designers and architects to collaborate on projects. 

Here, are just a few of the top projects they have completed for some of the biggest names in Architecture and Design. 

Residences by Armani Casa 

MV Group is the exclusive partner of Giorgio Armani and Armani Casa in the United States. When Armani Casa decided to come to Miami for their first branded real estate venture in the country, MV Group oversaw a 4,000 square foot, multi-million dollar, oceanfront model residence and built 26 individual residences totaling over 50,000 square feet. 

This collaboration then extended to MV Group managing another 50,000 square feet of common areas and the first Giorgio Armani-certified design center onsite at Armani Casa Residences. The team commuted every three months from Miami to Milan to train and fortify their connection with the design house, allowing the company to act as a brand ambassador and Armani’s "eyes” in carrying out his overall vision. Studying every design detail and meeting the top standard that he holds for himself and his brand, MV Group USA accomplished the aesthetics of his architecture that translate into harmonizing ambiances.

“To create something exceptional,” says Giorgio Armani. “Your mindset must be relentlessly focused on the smallest detail.” 

Casa Palma

The project La Casa Palma is an 11,485 sq foot collaboration with world-renowned architect Kobi Karp and interiors by Borges+associates. 

“MV is a great company to work with. From the administration to the construction people, to the trades. They were just a pleasure to work with,” says the president and CEO of Kobi Karp Architect. 

Casa Palma sits on a nearly 30,000 square foot waterfront lot and offers an open floor plan and glass sliders for endless water views of Biscayne Bay. The contemporary estate features 6 bedrooms, 9 baths residence includes a movie theatre, gym, spa, wine cellar, glass elevator, reflection pond, and a separate guest house with private entry and sunset deck. The backyard overlooks the Miami Beach skyline and features a lap pool and a built-in chef's summer kitchen.

“MV group is the type of group we like to work with because they really respect the design, the selection of materials and it’s a real collaborative process, plus you know MV group is really one of the most honest, most respected contractors that we work with.” - President and CEO at Borges & Associates, Reinaldo Borges.

Journey’s End Home

Partnering with world-renowned interior designer Briggs Solomon, MV Group USA built a beautiful 9,000 square foot home located in the heart of Coral Gables. 

Greeted with double-height ceilings highlighted by the large picture windows allowing the sun to envelop the home's natural splendor. The entire home was gutted to create enchanting spaces integrating European White Oak floors throughout the residence, sinks with infinity edges, herringbone wood in the dining room, a wine cellar room connected to the 20-person theatre, and a 6 car- car lift garage. 

"Working with MV Group was by far a joy and ease.” Says Briggs Solomon, who has designed for celebrities such as Alex Rodriguez. “In collaboration with them, they understood what design elements were vital, and worked around our desires. They took the time to truly understand my vision and trusted our expertise. It has definitely become a relationship I look forward to continuing building in the future."

Hammock House was created with the intent to blend into its native landscape, voiding the line between exterior and interior spaces while prioritizing one’s privacy.
