In the luxury suburban real estate segment, where the average size of residences often exceeds 800 m², architectural and design solutions to reach the heights of innovation. In spacious residences, based on Studia 54's experience, smart zoning plays a crucial role.

It is important to consider convenient and logical routes for both owners and staff, ensuring a sufficient level of privacy. At the same time, planning solutions should take into account the family's lifestyle, habits, and life scenarios inside the house. This will make the space truly personalized and reflect the individuality and values of the owners.

The luxury villa and country residence segment is showing higher growth rates and strong projected demand. According to industry research, the global luxury villa market is estimated to be worth hundreds of billions of dollars (Research & Markets reports estimate it at around $249.7 billion in 2025, with a projected CAGR of ~14–15% over the next few years), reflecting a shift in demand towards large private homes and private plots.

Such residences embody both luxury and functional harmony, offering spacious living areas and personalized zones. Do you enjoy sports? Excellent — add a modern fitness room. Planning to spend summer evenings with friends? Then you can't do without a spacious terrace with a fireplace or summer kitchen.

Continuing our series, in which we discussed a 500 m² cottage house in detail in the previous article, this time we will focus on the key objectives of building 1,000 m² residences.

The goal of a premium-class home is to combine beauty, comfort, and individuality without losing sight of a rational approach to space planning. Let's discuss a real 1132 m² home project and what rooms we were able to accommodate in it according to the customer's wishes.

Main areas for the 1000 m² house

Let's consider the main areas and spaces that are incorporated into the design of large mansions, using the example of a spacious three-story villa in Dubai:

Luxurious master suite:

The master suite is the heart of a premium country house, a space where owners can relax from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy absolute comfort. The master suite includes a spacious bedroom with soft lighting and elegant interior design. It also includes a dressing room for clothes and accessories and a bathroom where every detail works to create the feeling of a spa resort in your home.

The master suite area is usually between 100 and 150 m², which allows it to be complemented with functional and aesthetic solutions.

Guest rooms: bedroom, bathroom

Guest areas in a premium-class home are separate spaces that provide comfort and convenience for visitors. Such areas usually include a bedroom, a private bathroom, and sometimes a small lounge area for relaxation. The minimum size of this unit starts at 30-40 m². The number of such units in large residences varies from 1 to 3.

Venue for official receptions

The area of a formal reception room is usually 50 m² or more, allowing guests to be comfortably accommodated with plenty of space. This space becomes a place where homeowners can express their individuality through stylish interior design, while maintaining a high level of comfort and coziness for their guests.

Separate entertainment areas

The home theater in the villa design is equipped with modern acoustic systems and a high-quality screen, making it the perfect place to watch your favorite movies in a private atmosphere. On average, an area of 40 m² is required for comfortable seating.

The bar room adds a special charm to the home. It is a space where you can enjoy drinks, meet guests, or spend evenings in a relaxed atmosphere. Wine cabinets, ice makers, and everything you need to make the perfect cocktails can be installed here. The area of the bar zone can start from 25 m² and depend on the layout.

Sports and relaxation areas

The fitness room, sauna, and massage room are designed to enhance comfort and active recreation. The fitness area can start with a space of 40-50 m², which can accommodate the main exercise equipment: a treadmill, a strength training area, and a yoga area.

For proper recovery after training, we provide relaxation areas with a sauna or hammam covering 30-40 m². But if you want to add more luxury — for example, install a jacuzzi, a small pool, or a salt room — it is worth allocating 50-80 m².

Hallways and corridors with designer installations

In the interior of a villa in Dubai, guests are greeted by a large-scale installation in the form of delicate buds made of weightless fabric. The area of such a hall can be up to 100 m², as it is necessary to take into account all technical aspects and give the project scale by using a double-height space.

Technical block

The key element of the technical unit is the boiler room, which houses heating equipment, boilers, and temperature control systems. Ventilation units are usually located next to it.

Given the size of the house, these are large-scale systems that ensure constant circulation of fresh air. In addition, the technical unit includes additional rooms for control panels, water treatment systems, backup generators, or smart home modules. These areas are used to control and adjust all processes taking place in the house. The total area of such rooms can be up to 80 m², depending on the complexity of the engineering systems and the area of the house itself.

In addition to the main units, there are additional rooms that make the house a more comfortable and personalized space::

Office or library: An office or library measuring 30–50 m² provides a quiet space for working and reading, with panoramic windows and smart systems for productivity.

  • Children's rooms: Children's rooms, each measuring 20–40 m², include play areas with eco-friendly materials for safety and creativity. They are located on the upper floors for privacy, with interactive elements and ventilation systems.
  • Garage: The 80–120 m² garage for 4–6 cars can be equipped with a car wash and charging stations for electric cars, emphasizing technology and convenience.

Thus, a luxury country house with an area of 1,000 m² is a complex system where every space must be not only aesthetic but also functional. This requires high precision in design and construction. Given the scale and variability of design, architectural, and engineering solutions, creating such a house becomes a real challenge. It requires the coordination of a large team of specialists from different fields. And this is where the team of professionals at Studia 54, with experience in implementing large-scale projects, is ready to take on all stages. Even before designing a house, it is necessary to carry out thorough preparation, and we discussed the key stages on the way to this in our previous article.
