DUBAI, DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, December 28, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Antonovich Group, a premier luxury interior design firm, announces the completion of an ambitious restoration and modernization project in Jumeirah Bay. The project showcases the successful transformation of a 15,000-square-foot traditional villa into a contemporary living space while preserving its cultural heritage elements.

Project Overview
The Jumeirah Bay Villa project represents a sophisticated blend of traditional Arabian architecture with contemporary luxury design. The transformation required meticulous attention to preserving original architectural elements while introducing modern amenities and design solutions.

Hand-finished limestone flooring
Custom-aged brass fixtures
