Katalagari Vacation Units
In collaboration with - Stamatiou Homes
Project area: 200m2
Program: Four Vacation Units
Status: Schematic Design
A serene and immersive retreat, where architecture and nature coalesce to offer a unique vacation experience. The masterplan, comprising four strategically isolated units, is meticulously crafted to harmonize with the natural surroundings and maximize captivating views. The curvilinear landscape design, enriched with indigenous planting, serves as a visual and spatial buffer, creating a sense of privacy and tranquility for each unit. The strategic offsetting of the units not only enhances individual privacy but also optimizes distances, ensuring unobstructed view corridors to the sea from the North and panoramic mountain views to the East.
The frontal terraces, oriented towards the North, are designed to maximize the enjoyment of the stunning landscape. This expansive area features a large covered lounge, complete with a pool, barbecue space, full-size outdoor dining area, an outdoor lounge, and sunbeds. Inspired by South Asia architecture and landscaping, fused with the classic Greek lounge atmosphere, this space becomes a lush oasis that seamlessly integrates with the natural beauty of the site. Positioning and all other site features are purposefully designed to avoid the existing olive trees.
The design is not just about aesthetics; it's about creating a holistic and immersive experience for guests. The incorporation of elements from South Asian and Greek design traditions adds a unique and distinctive character to the project, setting it apart in the competitive local tourism market. Katalagari Vacation Units redefine the concept of vacation living, offering a lush haven where design, nature, and relaxation converge to create an unique getaway.
