On a plot of land outside the settlement in the broader area of Apokoronas, we were asked to design a new four-bedroom holiday residence, maximizing the allowable building area. This residence is intended for the owners’ summer vacations, a young couple, and will be used for short-term rentals during the rest of the year.
