A generous lobby interior combines blackened wood surfaces, bamboo ceilings, and expansive glazing that frames the surrounding mountains. A suspended fireplace and modular seating establish a calm, communal atmosphere, where material warmth offsets the clarity of the architectural lines.

A Summerhouse in Antiparos Reframes Cycladic Building Traditions with Modern Rigour

Architecture Matters

An exposed brick wall forms a textured backdrop for a low storage unit and a dining setup with vintage chairs. A figurative artwork introduces colour and irony, while warm natural light highlights the dialogue between raw masonry and carefully curated mid-century furnishings.

Workspaces

Viewed through a dark, out-of-focus window frame, the landscape is reduced to a living painting. The contrast between the shadowy interior and the sunlit valley—dotted with tiny chalets and vast vertical cliffs—highlights a design philosophy centered on spatial perspective, turning the natural world into the hotel’s most significant decorative element.

The interplay of light and texture is captured through a large arched window, casting a soft glow on a burgundy built-in bench. The polished, sculptural coffee bars sit centrally, their metallic curves contrasting with the rigid, carved geometry of the dark wood paneling and the clean, off-white flooring.

Coffee or Tea?

A brutalist concrete pillar serves as a stoic anchor amidst the bookstore's fluid, modular design. To the left, a light-wood pegboard partition on wheels suggests a nomadic versatility, while to the right, a series of intricately carved, dark traditional screens adds a layer of historic gravity. The composition celebrates the intersection of raw materiality and refined craftsmanship.

The Art of Retail

In a surrealist arrangement, two diamond-edged scarab brooches from Lito Fine Jewelry’s Cosmic Guardians collection rest upon a matte white, coral-like ceramic sculpture. The interplay between the jewelry’s metallic brilliance and the porous, organic texture of the porcelain creates a dreamlike atmosphere. The lighting casts soft shadows, emphasizing the sculptural depth and the vivid green iridescence of the beetle forms.
