A Home on Your Own Dot on the Map of the World

Private Islands · Villas · Resorts

What does it take to design a home on your own private island? The World Islands answer a fantasy no other address can offer — three hundred man-made islands shaped like a world map, set four kilometres off the Dubai coast and reached only by private boat or helicopter. Interior design for The World Islands is a rare brief indeed: a whole island to a single owner, sea on every horizon, and total seclusion as the ultimate luxury. Algedra designs villas, mansions, and resorts across the archipelago, from the Heart of Europe to Amali Island. Explore Algedra's studio and book a consultation to begin.

Sea on every side. We compose island homes around the water — 360-degree views, indoor-outdoor living, and terraces that meet the Gulf, so the whole island becomes the residence.

Built for salt, sun, and distance. Marine-grade finishes, weather-tested stone and teak, and a plan that accounts for a site reached only by barge and boat.

Villas to resorts. Private-island mansions, floating homes, and boutique island hotels — the full range the archipelago now calls for.

What We Design

From a single private island to a themed resort, our scope spans the archipelago:

Private-island villas and mansions: whole-island homes with sea views on every side, private beaches, and a masterplan that reads the island as one estate.

Floating and underwater homes: interiors for the floating villas of the Heart of Europe, where an underwater bedroom opens onto a coral garden.

Island resorts and boutique hotels: Mediterranean and Riviera-inspired retreats in the register of Portofino and the Côte d'Azur.

Over-water terraces and decks: teak decks, a shaded majlis, and infinity pools that dissolve into the Gulf.

Island landscape: salt-tolerant planting, coral-friendly shorelines, and gardens engineered for a marine setting.

How We Work

An island project succeeds on logistics as much as design, since every material arrives by water. We plan the build around that from day one.

Site and access study: we assess the island, its shoreline, and how the build will be supplied and reached.

Concept and 3D design: the villa, the views, and the landscape rendered as one, approved before work begins.

Documentation: drawings and marine-grade material schedules for a precise, weather-ready build.

Supervision and delivery: our team coordinates the barge logistics and stays on site through the fit-out.

Handover: the island home completed, dressed, and ready to receive by boat or helicopter.

Choose Your Style

The islands invite a coastal grandeur. Our work spans:

Mediterranean Riviera: Portofino pastels, stone, and shuttered elegance for a European-themed island.

Contemporary Coastal: clean volumes, glass, and pale stone framing the sea.

Tropical Resort: teak, thatch, and lush planting for a barefoot-luxury retreat.

Modern Arabic: mashrabiya and warm stone, the Gulf tradition set against the water.

Underwater Modern: the Floating Seahorse register — glass, coral views, and a bedroom beneath the waterline.

Where We Design

The Heart of Europe. Villas, floating homes, and resorts across the Sweden, Germany, Monaco, and Portofino islands.

Amali Island. Ultra-exclusive beachfront mansions on one of the archipelago's most private enclaves.

The continents. Private islands across the Europe, Asia, and Americas clusters of the world map.

Across the wider coast. Our studio also designs waterfront homes on Palm Jumeirah and throughout Dubai and the UAE.
