Some Feathers / concept
Created in response to its serene yet dramatic setting, right on the edge of the Aegean Sea, "Some Feathers" proudly represent the evolution of agrotourism.
A sanctuary consisting of five partially underground residences echoing the natural topography. Only imprint of human touch is a series of minimalistic wooden canopies, lightly floating above the surrounding olive grove. Subtle thresholds blur interior and exterior, offering an engaging, nature-connected experience despite the minimalist form.
Designed with biodegradable materials and adhering closely to passive design principles, "Some Feathers" blend sustainability and serenity at the heart of this remarkable location.
