COMMERICAL & HOSPITALITY
MILLWORK & FABRICATION
Drawing on our craft based practice, combined with our background in metal fabrication, New Antiquity is a one-stop-shop for commercial millwork and fabrication. Our portfolio of work ranges from single bespoke restaurants and breweries, to co-working-office spaces, to multi-unit chain restaurants and developments. While we do offer design services and shop drawings for all of our projects, New Antiquity enjoys collaborations with Architects and Designers on exciting projects nationwide.
KITCHENS
Whether you are renovating a classic New England colonial or a contemporary farmhouse, our timeless designs are tailored to fit the feel and style of your home. Our kitchens are designed and built from the best quality raw materials in our workshop; dovetailing old world craft techniques with the accuracy and efficiency of modern equipment. Cabinets are sized and configured around the flow of your daily life, we never use stock sizes, and strive for a built-in look that blends seamlessly into your home.
MILLWORK & CARPENTRY
As second generation woodworkers with New England roots dating back hundreds of years, quality craftsmanship and construction is in our blood. Our Woodbury, CT based company is surrounded by some of the best examples of carpentry mastery in the country, which fuels our sense of design and inspiration. As fully licensed and insured home improvement contractors with a solid crew of experienced carpenters and cabinetmakers, we welcome projects from framing through finish.
CUSTOM FURNITURE
In wood, metal or a combination of the two, handmade bespoke furniture is the cornerstone of our business. Nearly all of our projects involve single or multiple pieces of complex handmade furniture and casework. A reputation built on craft and attention to detail has allowed us to build our business into what it is today. These pieces, large or small are what we enjoy most about what we do everyday.
WHO WE ARE
Matt Rink and Sarah Bader, husband and wife, artists and builders reside and operate New Antiquity from breathtakingly beautiful Litchfield County. They both attended Alfred University in Upstate New York, each receiving a BFA in sculpture, metal working, woodworking, and photography combined. Matt obtained his MFA in design and sculpture from Clemson University in South Carolina. What began as an exciting collaboration, building furniture for their apartment and wedding, swiftly grew into a full time business as they discovered the possibilities in the confluence between functional and fine art. Matt and Sarah draw inspiration from the landscape and history around them, creating designs that are purposeful and transformative. All their creations are built and designed with clever details and fine craftsmanship that is both practical and whimsical.
