This architectural project, located on the southern coast of Crete, harmonizes with its natural surroundings by incorporating the unique topography featuring valleys and olive groves. It comprises four 45 m2 suites designed with privacy and unobstructed sea views in mind. The suites are built into the landscape, creating a seamless connection with the environment while preserving existing olive trees. The white facades reflect the light and highlight the valleys’ contours, all while offering residents a tranquil escape that emphasizes the beauty of the region's dry climate and rocky structures.
The design of the suites reflects the region’s topography, with four distinct valleys cut into the landscape, ensuring that each suite maintains both privacy and expansive views.
Emphasizing the integration with nature, the project preserves existing olive trees while embedding the buildings within the landscape, enhancing the visual continuity of the site.
The architecture leverages the dry, hot climate of southern Crete, creating a dialogue with the surrounding environment that is both respectful and innovative.
Each suite features a unique perspective of the gully and the sea, allowing residents to experience the natural beauty of Crete while ensuring a secluded living space.
