CONCEPT

The White Rock Villa celebrates spectacular views of the Aegean and the nearby islands Syros, Tinos, and Delos. This 8-bedroom Villa is amphitheatrically embedded within the plot’s slope, remaining distinctly visible thanks to a white-plastered wall that gently embraces the hillside and opens towards the view.

The villa is split in three different levels connected by an outdoor stair path. The access of the plot is at its highest level, opening to a path that first meets the entrance to the main house and a large outdoor space as well as an independent guest suite with bathroom. The outdoor space of this level includes a shaded area and the infinity pool both overlooking the Aegean Sea. The use of a pergola intends to create a space that would allow guests to enjoy the outdoor spaces throughout the day and at the same time being protected by the sun and summer winds. This area hosts an open kitchen, bar, dining and living area by the pool. The swimming pool follows the white curved wall enhancing the sense of fluidity.

The white-washed stone wall building of the highest level accommodates the main house that contains the common areas – living room, dining room, kitchen, WC, auxiliary kitchen area, storage area, as well as four luxury suites with private bathroom.

Following the natural slope of the terrain, the stair path leads to a lower level with an outdoor lounge area with fireplace and another private guest suite with bathroom.

The lowest level and the most secluded area of the plot hosts three subterranean, luxury suites. Each suite has a private bathroom and enjoys the private swimming pool with the uninterrupted views of the sea and the sunset.

The use of traditional materials such as lime-wash, stone and wood combined by a minimalist aesthetic, unveils the island’s heritage through a modern approach. The interiors are characterized by an earthy color palette.

The villa blends into the hillside thanks to the extensive green roofs and the vegetation that harmoniously creates an integrated house into the landscape. The curved shapes, both in the building area and the surrounding configurations, the use of the local stone and materials in natural shades contribute to minimizing the imprint of the building in the landscape.
