Hotel In Pefkari, Thasos

The new 3 star hotel is in a total area of 1.400 m2 and situated in Pefkari, a small village in the island of Thasos, Greece. It consists of a basement with storage areas and preparation rooms, a ground floor with lobby, dining areas, kitchen and five rooms, and an upper level where the rest of the rooms are developed.

OFFICETWENTYFIVEARCHITECTS intended to design a building less monolithic that follows the natural form of the site. The sloped roofs are alternating with flat ones while white pergolas offer shading in the exterior configurations. Large modern glass windows with lattice shades are consistent with this philosophy. Local materials are also used, such as local stone and some wooden elements in lattice and sun protection blinds.

The not passable roof is covered with white gravel while cement mortars and large ceramic tiles cover the floors of the surrounding area. The color is given through the materials of special constructions such as wooden blinds sunscreen, glass and metals in shades of gray, as well as stone, as mentioned above.

This project refers to the design of a ground floor private residence with surrounding fencing, in the farm area of Epanomi (municipality of Thermaikos) which has a total area of 11557.50 sq.m. The ground floor house has been designed and developed based on the topographical details of the area . The building has visual engravings on the southwest, its entrance is located on the northeast and evolves around a outdoor living room. More specifically, the exterior seating area consists of a semi-outdoor area with a pergola, which includes the entrance to the house.

The main living spaces are located in the northwest part of the property. There is the kitchen with the dining room and the living room, as well as two bedrooms and a laundry space. To the southeast there are three guest bedrooms, one with a private bathroom and two with a shared one.

The external staircase located on the main patio leads to an outdoor seating area, which is designed on the roof, with a pergola. On the exterior space of the building one more pergola creates a shading system that serves the outdoor parking space. The outdoor space also hosts a hot tub, in connection to the master bedroom.

The central and connecting element of the composition is the atrium, from which there is access to the all the interior spaces. The design offers privacy where it is needed with large openings to the surrounding view.
