BSBG reveals design details for Upper House by Ellington Properties

Words by BSBG Media Team, Friday 03 February 2023

Brewer Smith Brewer Group (BSBG) has unveiled the design of Upper House, a residential high-rise tower located in Jumeirah Lakes Towers (JLT), for premium developer Ellington Properties. BSBG and Ellington signed a strategic partnership in 2022 for the collaborative development of four new projects in Dubai; Upper House represents the first of these projects to come to market.

Upper House features 754 units in total, comprising elegant studios, and a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments offering residents views of Jumeirah Islands and the Dubai Marina skyline. The development will include a variety of leisure facilities and amenities, including a 37-metre horizon pool, an interactive fitness studio, a health club with a climbing wall, a yoga studio, a sky spa, and padel and basketball courts. In addition, residents will be able to make use of a bespoke movie theatre, a residential clubhouse, record lounge, podcast room, indoor skate park, a pet play area, a kids’ splash pad and play area, and an outdoor barbeque area.

Describing the design, BSBG Group Design Director, Michael Lewis, said: “Upper House by Ellington is the epitome of a connected community, with first-class amenities delivering a lifestyle and wellness vision. With this project, we’ve tried to bring to life an aspiration of urban active living, creating a benchmark for wellness developments in Dubai.”

Located in the popular residential destination of JLT, the high-end dual tower residential development appears almost as a ‘gateway to JLT’ from the south, and will deliver ultra-modern apartments and sweeping terraces with true 360-degree panoramic views towards the Marina coastline, across JLT and Jumeirah Islands.

Michael continued: “The number and variety of amenities are exceptional and are very interesting because most developers wouldn’t normally commit to such a large quantity of non-leasable space within a scheme. But this creates a real sense of place, a real sense of community, and everything is designed with the objective of connecting people within the scheme. That to me is the key aspiration for this project.”
