Unique greek traditional design in this house located in Doli, Mani, Greece designed by LOCI ARCHITECTS.

This was a newly renovated property and the commission was therefore only for the landscaping of the garden area and the design of a guest annexe bedroom with an en-suite shower room. The garden is orientated to the south with stunning views and therefore the design integrated both a covered veranda and a freestanding pavilion with a bamboo roof to provide shade and prolonged access to the views for outdoor summer life. The materials and construction are traditional to the area with 50cm thick stone walls, timber windows and ceramic roof tiles. Materials were often purchased from derelict buildings and integrated into the house to create the desired aesthetic.

Vacation house with a courtyard

This project in Mani involved the landscape design and the design of a guest annexe bedroom with an en-suite shower room. As the garden offered stunning views of the area, the aim was to design a covered veranda and a freestanding pavilion with a bamboo roof, by adding also scenographical elements to the space. Mint greens offer a contemporary yet vintage look, connecting harmonically different materials together. Through our design we liked the space to be personal, reflecting through choice of objects and materials the personality and the habits of the user.
