The design features a ground-level house composed of different levels on a plot located in the western part of Paros called Kamari. The land posed challenges due to its inclination, which led to the house being divided into two main areas. The overall approach was to create several volumes, each at various levels, to achieve optimal integration with the landscape.
The elevations are defined by the “interior facades” and “exterior facades,” which are free-standing walls connected by pergolas to the main house volumes. This arrangement creates a barrier for privacy as well as protection from sun and wind for the residents. Voids between the built volumes facilitate inner courtyards and outdoor house extensions, doubling the usable space.
Integrating the volumes into the land was a key aspect of the design, achieved by excavating one side of the house volume fully into the ground. The project was developed in collaboration with Diederik Van Renger, 2025.
