Architectural blueprint of custom millwork layout for luxury Capobella kitchen by MCX CGC1520320

Capobella Residence

Architectural planning, system integration, and custom millwork fabrication within a high-rise residence.

Project Overview

This 3-bedroom, 3-bath high-rise residence underwent an interior architectural transformation focused on spatial reconfiguration, system integration, and custom millwork fabrication. Non-load-bearing partitions were adjusted to improve circulation and sightlines, while ceilings were redesigned with recessed planes and integrated lighting. Miami Construction Experts designed, fabricated, and installed the kitchen with Cristallo stone surfaces, concealed appliances, and aligned storage systems. Custom closets, paneling, and built ins unify the interior. Technical upgrades included electrical enhancements, smart lighting, soundproofing, and Sprinkler system integration within millwork. Walls were finished to level 5 standards, combining performance with refined daily living.

High-Rise Renovation Context

Working inside an occupied high-rise means aligning with building procedures, mechanical pathways, and access logistics. In this residence, layout decisions, system integration, and construction sequencing were planned around these realities to maintain efficiency and minimize disruption.

Architecture, systems, and fabrication unified in a complete interior transformation. Spatial organization was reconfigured, structural and mechanical routes coordinated, and every surface custom-fabricated to architectural tolerances. Function and craft converge in a coherent living environment.

Concealed Laundry Integration & System Engineering

Laundry was designed as a built-in architectural element rather than a separate utility space.  All clearances, hardware, ventilation, and door mechanics were engineered in plan and elevation to operate seamlessly within the millwork. By integrating storage, appliances, systems, and stone surfaces into one coordinated enclosure, the laundry disappears visually while maintaining full functionality and service access: delivering a concealed solution with architectural precision.

From engineered mechanics to seamless concealment, the laundry transforms from a technical system into pure architecture.

Integrated Interior Architecture & Custom Millwork

Architecture, systems, and millwork were intentionally designed as one coordinated solution: aligning function, proportion, and infrastructure to create a seamless interior experience.

Spatial Reconfiguration

Non-load-bearing partitions were selectively removed to open circulation and align the interior with the new millwork and ceiling geometry. Before demolition, existing conditions were documented to coordinate structure, mechanical pathways, and future system integration.
This controlled reconfiguration produced spatial clarity, proportional balance, and functional flow.

Systems Integration

Electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and smart systems were coordinated with the new layout and millwork design. Rough ins were concealed within ceilings, wall cavities, and cabinetry, while plumbing and air routes were rerouted with precise alignment.

 

By resolving infrastructure at this stage, the space functions technically without compromising architectural integrity.

Millwork Engineering & Shop Drawings

Custom millwork was engineered directly from the architectural plans and translated into detailed shop drawings. Every cabinet, panel, and enclosure was dimensioned to coordinate proportions, hardware placement, appliance openings, lighting channels, and system access.
By resolving geometry and joinery at the drawing stage, fabrication could begin with precision and full alignment to the architectural design.

Precision CNC Fabrication

Millwork components were cut using CNC automation to achieve exact dimensions and repeatable accuracy.
Each piece was fabricated directly from the engineered shop drawings, ensuring that joinery, hardware recesses, lighting channels, and appliance openings were produced with millimeter precision.
This level of control eliminated onsite improvisation and guaranteed consistency across the entire residence.

Shop Assembly & Quality Assurance

Cabinet components were fully assembled in the workshop to verify structure, alignment, and hardware precision before delivery.
Dovetail drawer boxes, reinforced joints, and branded components ensured durability and consistency across every unit.
By resolving fit and function in the shop, onsite installation was streamlined.

On-Site Installation &
System Alignment

Cabinets were laser leveled, anchored to structural backing, and installed per shop drawings. Mechanical, plumbing, and lighting were precisely aligned, ensuring seamless integration of millwork, appliances, and stone without improvisation.

Stone Installation & Surface Integration

Stone countertops and backsplashes were templated directly from the installed millwork to ensure exact fit.
Surfaces were set in place with millimetric alignment to sinks, fixtures, and lighting, resulting in monolithic transitions with no visible joints or corrections.

Architectural Construction & Site Coordination

On-site construction was executed with architectural precision, coordinating framing, ceilings, mechanical rerouting, and wall preparation before finishes. Every phase was aligned with the drawings to maintain geometry, system access, and future millwork alignment, eliminating rework and improvisation.

The residence no longer feels constructed; it feels composed, where every detail culminates in a realized state of personal well-being.

  • We resolve every element in plan, elevation, and shop drawings before fabrication. All millwork is built in-house from these drawings, so what is installed on site matches the approved design exactly.

  • We coordinate construction sequencing based on building rules, delivery schedules, elevator access, and noise restrictions. All work is planned with management in advance to avoid delays or shutdowns

  • Core work is performed by our own team who designed and fabricated the millwork. Specialized trades are coordinated directly under our supervision to maintain alignment with drawings and performance standards.

  • We align systems, structure, and millwork before finishes are installed. Components are pre-assembled in our shop, stone is templated from installed cabinetry, and surfaces are finished to level 5 standards to ensure seamless results.
