Summer Houses In Parthenon, Chalkidiki, Greece
It is a complex of five houses which are situated in a plot at the limits of the listed area of Parthenonas, a traditional village in a mountain over Marmaras port, Chalkidiki. Because of the uniqueness of the area there are certain regulations and restrictions on the use of materials and the design as well. The use of local stone and wood matches with the forest which surrounds the area. Semi-open areas have been created to offer resting spaces so that the residents could observe the sunset and the Aegean Sea. The living room is on the first floor on every house, where as the bedrooms are located on the ground floor. In this project we have been totally inspired by the unique beauty of Parthenonas.

PARTHENONAS |
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.
