Residences by Armani Casa - Units 1100 & 4800 

Armani Casa Unit 1100

Residences by Armani/Casa is the creative vision of two modern design icons: Cesar Pelli and Giorgio Armani. Internationally acclaimed for their elegance and restraint, they came together for the very first time to create these dreamlike homes floating between sea and sky. MV Group USA has had the pleasure of designing and building multiple units in this luxury building, including unit 1100 and unit 4800.

Unit 1100

In typical Giorgio Armani fashion, no corner of unit 1100 at Residences by Armani Casa went unbeautified. Harmonizing sculptures and sophisticated interior décor make the impeccably modern unit an oceanside refuge, vastly open to unparalleled ocean views through walls of floor-to-ceiling windows and an elongated wraparound balcony.

Direct access to the terrace by the sea, from the fully-equipped master bedroom with a spa-like en suite and spacious walk-in closet. Bringing you to ever more heights of sky mansion living, world-class amenities of the prestigious condominium include a spa, fitness center, business center, swimming pool with sundeck, children's play area, theatre, cigar, and wine rooms, oceanfront restaurant and bar, beachside service, 24/7 concierge services, security, and valet parking.

Unit 4800

A 3,325 square foot residence at the prestigious and luxurious Armani Casa. This unit has 4 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms in addition to its expansive ocean and bay views.

This beautiful unit was sold to Malaysian billionaires Kim S. Thai and Bee G. Tan, who made their fortune as the largest rubber glove makers in the world; a business that boomed during the pandemic.

MV Group USA built an elegant & ultra-modern high floor 3 bedrooms, 3.5 bathroom unit in Paramount Residences Fort Lauderdale Beach. This premier new building offers 5-star amenities, a 3rd-floor pool overlooking the ocean, full beachside/pool service (chairs, umbrellas, towels) & a soon-to-open signature oceanfront restaurant.

Remodeling or building a house or a workspace is not an easy task. Hiring the right people to help you is the key to making your vision become a reality. It is a common misconception to use the terms interior designer and interior decorator interchangeably. There are major differences that make each qualified for specific functions. 

While designers create functional spaces within a building, decorators embellish the space with decorative pieces, such as furniture, rugs, and accessories. 

An Interior decorator garnishes spaces that already exist by helping their clients make decisions about best fitting style, color palettes, furniture, art, and accessories. If your space does not require structural changes such as adding new walls and electrical wiring, then an interior decorator is the best fit for you. They are the correct choice if your space simply needs visual updates. 

Unlike an interior decorator, an interior designer works with creating new interior spaces. A designer creates an appealing space and strategically studies how to create a functional and methodical environment to satisfy their clients’ needs. They use technology to carefully create virtual plans to work hand in hand with construction teams who carry out the design. If you want your space to be a reflection of your personality and style while also functioning in a way that corresponds to your lifestyle, then hiring a designer is the right fit for you. 

When it comes to hiring a designer or a decorator, one of the main concerns is the cost. Contrary to what most think, hiring a designer can help you understand exactly where your money is going, as well as help you work your space with items that best fit your budget. You will indeed have an additional cost of a designer's fee, but you will avoid spending money on a piece of furniture that looked amazing in the store but did not fit your living room, or painting your walls five times because you cannot find the right color palette. A designer or decorator will not only benefit you financially but also save you time by using their experience and expertise to anticipate obstacles that might come up along the way. 

Haute design has a wonderful network of interior designers who can help you make your space perfectly fitted for your lifestyle and your needs. You can find these top designers  at https://dev.hauteresidence.com/designer/
