Developer Object 1 has officially launched its latest project, Sky Level 1, a mixed-use residential development situated in District 11 of Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC). The project represents a significant expansion of the company’s footprint in one of Dubai’s most resilient mid-market communities. Scheduled for completion in the second quarter of 2029, the tower will span 35 residential floors and house 420 one-bedroom apartments, alongside integrated office, retail, and rooftop amenity spaces.
The development is positioned just two minutes from Circle Mall, offering residents proximity to key lifestyle hubs including Dubai Hills Mall, the Mall of the Emirates, and Palm Jumeirah. Accessibility to the area has been bolstered by recent infrastructure upgrades from the Roads and Transport Authority, specifically the Hessa Street expansion between Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road, which has doubled road capacity and reduced travel times to roughly four minutes for surrounding neighborhoods.
JVC continues to be a preferred location for investors and tenants, as highlighted by the 2025 Dubai rental market report from Bayut. The area saw an average annual increase of 8.59 percent in apartment transaction rents from 2024, driven by its family-friendly infrastructure and practical residential layouts. This growth aligns with broader market trends in the emirate, which recorded Dh252 billion in real estate transactions during the first quarter of 2026—a 31 percent year-on-year increase.
Tatiana Tonu, CEO of Object 1, described the launch as the company’s first of 2026, noting that the firm is maintaining the same operational discipline that defined its performance earlier this year. With two projects already receiving Building Completion Certificates in the first half of the year and others approaching handover, Tonu emphasized that the company remains confident in the long-term value and rental demand within JVC.
Distinguishing itself from previous developments, Sky Level 1 incorporates a suite of digital and future-ready features. Residents will have access to an elevated lifestyle deck featuring a sky infinity pool and a panoramic observation deck equipped with digital telescopes for real-time celestial viewing. The building also introduces an AI-powered Smart Wellness Zone, where intelligent mirrors provide personalized fitness guidance through movement analysis and form correction. Additionally, the property includes family-oriented amenities such as a Digital Coloring Wall that converts children’s artwork into interactive digital displays.
The project reflects a strategic focus on anticipating future living requirements, from smart access systems to digitalized wellness facilities. By combining these technological integrations with a prime location, Object 1 aims to support Dubai’s ongoing residential expansion. Further details regarding the development and the company’s broader portfolio are available at object-1.com. The report also notes that inspired by elevated living and celestial design, Sky Level 1 introduces a distinctive architectural identity while expanding Object 1’s JVC pipeline. The report also notes that representing a 31 per cent increase compared to the same period last year and reinforcing continued confidence in the residential sector, the emirate recorded Dh252 billion in real estate transactions during the first quarter of 2026. The report also notes that delivering a more digitalised and future-ready living experience than the developer’s previous endeavours, Sky Level 1 integrates smart features into daily residential life.
