Inside, the open living space features a sofa and a home office, with the option to convert the living area into a sleeping space using a sofa bed or Murphy bed due to the absence of a dedicated bedroom in this model.
Despite its small size, the Cosmic One boasts high-end materials and smart home technologies, such as oak and limestone finishes, polished chrome handles, a smartphone-controlled energy system, and Wi-Fi-connected lighting. The kitchen is impressively equipped with an oven, induction stove, sink, ample cabinetry, a Wi-Fi-connected fridge, and a dishwasher, all of which can be concealed behind multi-hinged doors. The bathroom includes a toilet, shower, and vanity sink, completing the home’s comprehensive amenities.
