The plot has an area of 1.8 acres and is set to "Patatakia" of municipal road Prassa - Skalani, in County of Heraklion.
The house, an area of 200sqm approximately, is the permanent residence of the family. The scale and proportions of the local architecture acted as a strong reference to the composition of the volumes of the new building, in a modern way and without any effort imitation. Thus, the lean volumes synthesized together to create the residence, adding both aesthetic changes with their sizes and form. The semi-outdoor spaces and terraces, in addition to their functional role, complete the modeling of tumors.
The location of the building on the plot took for granted both the shape of the land and existing zoning laws and restrictions and also the relationship of the building with orientation and views. The building has north-south orientation. Centrally, the entrance hall is the element of union of two-story south of the north ground floor, creating a pleasing visual game of sizes and proportions.
On the ground floor created the living rooms. The core part is the living room with large windows that provide unobstructed views of the sea and rich natural lighting inside. In the southern two-storey section are the kitchen, dining room and guest house with a WC. The first floor houses the bedrooms of children and the couple designed towards ensuring relevant desired independence of the bedroom of the couple.
The architectural design reflects the personality and responds to the needs and desires of owners, while a net into blocks space that stimulates the senses created, preserving the personal touch of the architect.
The house was built with modern building materials (reinforced concrete and bricks) and invested with various materials to create a cosy, warm and functional space for the family. Internally were used tiles and granite slabs on the floor, while the exterior is formed with block and tiles for the floor and stone for the construction of retaining walls. The wood was used to create the hipped roof in the living room and metal for the construction of parapets.
