ARCHITECTURE

Architecture as a dream material

The dry stone walls that dominate the Cycladic landscape were converted to the main synthetic architectural tool which border the undercave indoor spaces of the suites as well the undercave –protected from north wind- outdoor space. Their rhythmical perforation creates a concatenation of frames to the view and a variform “dialogue” of the interior with the outdoor environment’s space, which as the roofs of total construction, is planted with local vegetation and other comestible bushes (thyme, rigani etc. )Planted areas are interrupted at points by the private swimming pools that pop up from the undercave courtyards and by the minimal cement mortar plates essential for walking and sitting.
