The epitome of craft, Macrame layers materials and techniques into an intricate, tactile surface. Thick cellulose yarns, laid in overlapping wave patterns, are stitched to a ground of linear cotton yarns; this dense, three-dimensional material is then dyed and cut into wide strips that are reassembled into a chevron-like pattern. With geometric movement at every scale, Macrame is gorgeous on the wall. A true artisanal material, the natural woven wallcovering uses responsible materials (renewable cotton and 20% recycled cellulose) that create tonal color variation in a soft, natural palette.

Contemporary luxury villa design has reached new heights of sophistication, and Antonovich Group stands at the forefront of this architectural evolution. Their modern approach to villa exterior and landscape design creates harmonious living environments that seamlessly blend indoor comfort with outdoor elegance, establishing new benchmarks for luxury residential architecture.
Architectural Excellence Through Modern Design
Antonovich Group's modern villa exteriors showcase a masterful understanding of contemporary aesthetics while maintaining timeless appeal. Their designs feature bold, clean lines and expansive glazing that create striking visual statements against carefully curated landscapes. Each project demonstrates how modern architecture can enhance rather than compete with its natural surroundings.
The key to their success lies in the thoughtful balance between dramatic architectural elements and refined details. Expansive terraces, geometric pools, and sculptural outdoor features create outdoor rooms that feel as luxurious and well-appointed as any interior space, establishing a new standard for modern luxury living.
Innovative Exterior Cladding Solutions
The sophistication of Antonovich Group's villa designs is particularly evident in their exterior cladding solutions, which combine premium materials with cutting-edge installation techniques. Their material palette includes natural stone, contemporary metals, and high-performance composites that not only create stunning visual impact but also ensure long-term durability in challenging climates.
These exterior cladding solutions go beyond mere aesthetics, incorporating thermal performance, weather resistance, and maintenance considerations into every selection. The result is facades that maintain their beauty while providing superior protection and energy efficiency. From sleek metal panels that create dramatic shadow play to warm natural stone that grounds the structure in its environment, each material choice serves both form and function.
Garden Landscape Design: Creating Outdoor Sanctuaries
The garden landscape design component of Antonovich Group's projects transforms outdoor spaces into sophisticated extensions of the villa's interior. Their approach to landscaping embraces both the architectural language of the building and the natural characteristics of the site, creating gardens that feel both designed and organic.
Strategic plantings create privacy screens and focal points while maintaining sight lines to key architectural features. Water elements, from reflecting pools to dynamic fountains, add movement and sound that enhance the sensory experience of the outdoor spaces. The garden landscape design incorporates both formal and naturalistic elements, creating varied experiences throughout the property while maintaining visual cohesion.
Sustainable Modern Luxury
Modern luxury doesn't mean abandoning environmental responsibility. Antonovich Group's designs incorporate sustainable practices throughout their exterior and landscape elements, from water-efficient irrigation systems to locally sourced materials that reduce environmental impact while supporting regional craftspeople and suppliers.
Their plant selections prioritize native and adaptive species that thrive with minimal intervention, while hardscape materials are chosen for longevity and low maintenance requirements. This approach ensures that these stunning properties remain beautiful and functional for decades while minimizing their environmental footprint.
The Complete Modern Lifestyle
What distinguishes Antonovich Group's work is their understanding that modern luxury villa design must address the complete lifestyle of their clients. Their exteriors and landscapes aren't just beautiful backdrops—they're functional spaces designed for entertaining, relaxation, and daily living.
From outdoor kitchens that rival their indoor counterparts to wellness areas that promote health and relaxation, every element is designed to enhance the quality of life for residents. The integration of technology, sustainable systems, and artistic elements creates properties that are as smart as they are beautiful, representing the pinnacle of modern luxury villa design.

The painted illusion of marble has been rendered on surfaces of palaces and churches for centuries. My technique of overlaying one complete stone finish on another gives a true hand cut inlay appearance.

This one-of-a-kind wall portrait measures 20" x 16". The handsome and sporting gent with handlebar mustache poses proudly next to his penny farthing bicycle. Perhaps he was posing before the big race, or after with defeat or triumph? We will never know for the image dates about 1890. What we do know is that he is eternally and heroically memorialized in this one of a kind recreated gold-tinted metal portrait.
Originally, tintype portraits were made from the 1850's - 1900's, only a few inches tall and were printed with the wet plate collodion process, which these are not. I custom print my tintypes and age them with vintage tools, elbow grease and love so that they are large enough to hang and create a conversation piece in your home or office. All images come from my personal archive.
Each piece has character, peculiarities and a weathered look from aging techniques and are meant to feel like they were made in 1800's. No two are alike. It's very difficult to photograph metal, so please don't hesitate to ask any questions regarding these. Scuff's, scrapes, a smidgen of rust are all part of the details.
DETAILS
• Measures 20" x 16"
• Made from 22-gauge steel
• Each piece is cut from steel, sanded, primed, printed on press and sealed
• 100% made by hand in the U.S.A.
HANGING OPTIONS (see last photo)
• Mounting bracket on back
• Holes drilled in top with antiqued brass or silver chain
• Reclaimed rustic barn frame

This colonial style ranch adds a touch of elegance with the addition of local New England stone cladding. The Boston Blend Square & Rectangular thin stone veneer was artfully cut and shaped by the mason in a dry-laid installation technique. Pieces of stone were sawn on the sides and fit together with paper thin joints, with no mortar showing.

Concrete, a very special material for people who want to reduce their living environment to essentials - both in terms of the architecture of their houses and interior design. With the new CONCRETE range, a kitchen front of true craftsmanship made of fine concrete in three blended colors, LEICHT is looking back to the classic Bauhaus tradition and thus providing this target group with new inspiration for interior design.
Concrete surfaces have a characteristic expression that is always entirely unique. It is precisely these characteristics that make the timeless material so precious for the design of individual kitchens. By applying concrete to the kitchen front by hand using the putty technique you get a unique surface structure with varying light refraction. The kitchen front comes alive.

Form and function became one when this custom steel wine cellar room was completed. This temperature-controlled wine cellar room, made by artisan welders, includes a custom steel interior door with insulated glass, and adjacent custom steel wall panels with insulated glass. Our customer’s wine cellar room crafted from steel and insulated glass is sealed at all edges and kept at the recommended temperature of 55 degrees. In order to efficiently store collectible wine pieces and your daily go-to selections, we encourage a temperature-controlled environment.
Our goal was to provide a modern twist to an otherwise classic feature in a high-end home. This stand-alone wine cellar room crafted from steel was designed to be a focal point in our customer’s basement living area. The progression of wine cellar designs are showing that detached wine racking techniques are the new wave of innovation and style. The idea of creating a bold display for our customer’s wine collection was intriguing to us as designers, because we strive to be on the cutting edge of all things design and beauty.
To accentuate the modern twist of the independent wine cabinet, we suggested a sleek and modern steel interior door and steel wall units. Our ultra-thin steel stiles and rails are the perfect fit to allow optimal viewing into our customer’s collection. With insulated glass and fully sealed edges, no heat can enter and no cool air can escape. The custom interior steel door unit blends seamlessly with the accompanying steel wall structures. This seamless design creates a beautifully controlled environment for wine with a sleek steel appearance. Using steel doors and steel walls was a mindful approach because the star of the show is the carefully selected bottles of wine. The idea was to juxtapose the wood shelves inside of the cabinet and create another element that stands out, while still allowing for optimal viewing…and obsessing.
