All started with the client’s desire to create a villa inspired by a series of science fiction cult cinema. This is what makes this project extraordinary, the possibility to rethink the way we see a house. Learning the philosophy behind this cult series led us into a journey of self-development based on Chinese traditional Taoísm.

A villa that embodies the essence of modern minimalism, where every shape is a cube and every material serves a purpose. The striking contrast between the gray and red stone exteriors gives the home a sleek yet warm appearance, blending perfectly with its natural surroundings. Shallow water pools add a sense of tranquility.

Designed by Thetacon, this subterranean Corfu residence blends seamlessly with its rocky, sloped terrain. Inspired by the traditional dry-stone walls supporting the land, the structure features two fluid, stone-clad volumes that appear to emerge naturally from the earth.
