House in Mani, Greece by Aiolou Architects
Unique greek traditional design in this house located in Mani, Greece designed by Aiolou Architects.
House in Doli – Mani, Greece. 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.
Traditional wooden sofa, reclaimed and refurbished.
White washed floor and open timber roof with traditional bamboo finish internally.
Raised sleeping area.
Bratsa marble counter top and ochre coloured waterproof plaster finish to the walls.
Internal stair with whitewashed timber treads.
Free standing timber pavilion.

Aesthetically speaking, beautiful. Functionally speaking, looks extremely cold and impractical.

The house feels closer to nature and reflects the simplicity of the architecture
