Olive Hill in Paros, Greece is a residential project carefully embedded within an existing olive grove, where architecture and landscape are treated as a unified composition. The design responds directly to the site’s natural topography, allowing the built volumes to settle gently into the terrain while preserving the integrity and character of the land. Rather than imposing a dominant form, the project embraces a quiet architectural language that prioritizes continuity with its surroundings.

In an untouched natural setting, mirroring the principles observed in the Natura area on Milos Island, the imperative is for the building to blend seamlessly into its surroundings.

Back to the roots

Mykonos Architects created a story that awakens the Mykonian poetry and its roots, to give the client a pure and sensory experience. Deeply rooted in tradition and the present, this project offers an optimistic and authentic identity to Mykonos and itself.

The initial house, situated between an olive grove, forms part of an exclusive development consisting of four distinct plots. This thoughtfully designed complex will not only offer residential spaces but will also incorporate a purpose-built facility for a yoga retreat. The integration of the retreat within the natural landscape aims to create a harmonious environment, blending tranquility with wellness. The entire project is envisioned to provide a holistic experience, promoting well-being through its architecture and natural landscape.

Τhe villa aims to manifest modern architectural lines inspired by traditional elements, establishing a profound connection with nature and the imposing presence of water. The overarching mission is to create a residence that successfully reconciles artisanal craftsmanship with cutting-edge technologies, crafting an environment that exudes both purity and modern comfort.
