Located on a rocky slope on the Mediterranean coast, the Viglostasi house is Block722's latest design and, from a distance, looks like a traditional island house. The client was inspired to build his own resort in the secluded natural surroundings of the Cycladic Island of Syros after exploring different islands and reviewing some of Block722's past projects.

Inspired by the dwellings of the Greek islands, the design cleverly borrows from the living types of the Aegean coast - low volumes, simple facades or structural buildings, which are usually distributed in various areas of the hill and facing the sea. This fits perfectly with Block722's expertise in understated, gentle architecture, minimalist forms, natural materials and the use of neutral colors.

The client wanted a spacious, comfortable and quiet space to live, entertain and entertain, and fully reflect the slow pace of life on the island. As a result, the 500 m2 complex consists of a low and orthogonal volume relationship, arranged around the internal Spaces and paths of terraces, gardens and courtyards.

The main body of the building contains a master bedroom and a second bedroom, as well as a flowing open-plan living space. In addition, two rooms provide an additional functional complement, connected to the main space by utilities and views. The central outdoor "plaza" connects all the Spaces, making it the center of the building, leading to the infinity pool, where you can directly enjoy the natural landscape.

The building blocks are arranged in an orderly manner on a differentiated terrain, using steep gradients to provide different views of the outdoor landscape. The proper arrangement of stone, wood and furnishings makes the complex more homely in the vast Greek landscape. Light, natural tones, Palladiano flooring, traditional shutters and pergolas, gardens planted with local species and a green roof further enhance the atmosphere.
