PARION OPUS_ SYNTHESIS OF PARIAN HOSPITALITY
The deliverable was to transform an abandoned concrete structure that initially housing a summer residence into a boutique hospitality nested within an authentic Parian neighbourhood. Materiality and textural variety unfold using a modernist approach to architecture and design, while a combination of carefully selected semi tropical plants and Mediterranean herbs allow the landscape to add drama and a poetic interplay of light and shadows
The laid back yet stylistic atmosphere of the 6 suites is developed by tailor made design applied to wooden constructions and bespoke furniture. Advanced and innovative materials that promote resilience in surfaces and ceramic slabs for wall cladding and flooring follow the designers’ methodology that promotes homogeneity and flow with the use of an utmost curated material choice
All the rooms extend into private terraces with stone jacuzzis and teak daybeds, that create a floating effect above the water. The scene is developed theatrically at night thanks to linear led lighting that enables the furniture volumes to float above the floors and the warm light temperature at 3000Kelvin to create a contemporary and warm atmosphere
The white Entrance to the building is completely abstract and linear contracting the black Basaltic pool volume featuring a pit fire on top of it; just to add the warmth of fire over the coolness of water. The pool deck pergola offers day beds and a lounge area to allow for relaxation and enjoying the hotel’s culinary marvels using organic products from carefully selected Greek producers
