About Eden House, a 1100 sqft 1BHK apartment design at The Canal, Jumeirah 2

Eden House is a 1100 sqft one bedroom apartment at The Canal, Jumeirah 2, designed end to end in five weeks, every space included. Bedroom, living and dining, kitchen and bathroom were all part of the scheme, which matters more in a compact plan than it does in a large home. When an apartment is this size you can see most of it from wherever you stand, so a single room left outside the design is immediately obvious.

There are no spare corners either. Every square foot is already accounted for, so storage, seating and circulation all compete for the same floor, and the answer is rarely more furniture.

It is better proportioned furniture, joinery that does two jobs, and a palette held consistent enough that the eye reads the apartment as one volume rather than a series of small rooms. This is 1BHK apartment design treated as a single continuous space, not a set of separate ones.
