Humble Design Cleveland Partners with EDEN to make duplex units into a home for two families

EDEN is thrilled to welcome two families home! We recently completed our new housing for homeless families on Cleveland’s east side. This duplex contains two units, each with three bedrooms. The duplex is now home to two families with children who have experienced homelessness. They were referred by Coordinated Entry, the front door to emergency shelters and housing programs within Cuyahoga County's Continuum of Care.

Each unit is two stories with 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths with LVT flooring throughout. The living room is spacious with large windows and a ceiling fan. Each of the three bedrooms have large windows, a ceiling fan, and a large closet. All new appliances are included. Heating/cooling is by central air. The duplex is certified under LEED NGBS standards, demonstrating leadership in energy efficiency and design. Ample parking is available behind the building.

EDEN was beyond excited to renew our partnership with Humble Design Cleveland, whose design staff and volunteers worked to outfit the homes with furnishings and customize them for each family. Last Wednesday, a mom and her twins were given a fresh start in a new home specially designed with a sanctuary for her and lots of space for her busy twin boys (Unit B). On Friday, a mom of three—including an infant born less than a week before move-in—was jubilant as she guided her little ones around their cozy and nurturing new surroundings (Unit A).

We are so grateful to all of our partners and supporters. This is what it is all about!
