Gundari was conceived to blend seamlessly with its context—not only through its physical expression, including minimalist forms and carefully selected materials, but also through its alignment with the island’s slow rhythm of life. It offers guests the luxury of time, mindfulness, and deep relaxation.
The client’s brief called for an eco-resort: a hospitality complex fully attuned to its surroundings, with a light environmental footprint that respects the Cycladic island’s breathtaking landscape and cultural heritage.

The challenge of this project was to create a resort combining the local construction detailing and style with the requirements of a modern building, while taking into consideration its gorgeous natural setting. With this in mind, great care was taken in locating its entrance, its roads and its buildings so that this first class resort could offer its customers amazing views of the peninsula.

Grace Santorini Hotel
Design: Divercity & Mplusm

Grace Santorini Hotel in Greece
Reviving vernacular architecture in a place like Imerovigli is less about replicating its most recognisable forms and more about re-engaging with the logic that produced them in the first place—climate, geology, construction scarcity, and social use.
In Santorini, the “vernacular” is often reduced to a visual shorthand: whitewashed cubic volumes, blue accents, and the occasional vaulted roof. But those vaults were never aesthetic signatures; they were structural responses to limited timber, seismic conditions, and the need to carve habitable space into volcanic rock. When contemporary developments simply reproduce vaults at scale, they risk turning a once-adaptive system into scenography.

Design: K-STUDIO

Barbouni Beach Restaurant
Barbouni is a beach restaurant of approximately 300sqm area. The architects were asked to create a contemporary refuge from the strong sun and wind, protected from the winter waves. The structure needed to be in harmony with the sea-front location and make the most of the views of the horizon and sunset.

Design: polyanna paraskeva & associates

The Cocoon is inspired by the memory of the cocoon, as the space that carries life, with soft shapes that surround, contain and protect life. Fluid forms and carved underground spaces with green roofs surround a basin, from which organic forms emerge.

Elounda Beach Resort
Located on a spectacular sea front site on the Greek island of Crete, Elounda Beach is one of the world’s leading hotels. The scale of the site is at once both vast and intimate offering uninterrupted views across the Aegean Sea to the horizon yet still benefiting from the sheltering nature of the embracing bay.
