Ridge house Antiparos
In the Cycladic
island of Antiparos this house is situated on the northwestern ridge of a
promontory overlooking the Paros-Antiparos straits. The area is locally known
as ‘Vigles’ meaning ‘vantage points’. The volumes of the house form an
extension of the slope with their profile dictated by the ridgeline. The roof
allows an uninterrupted promenade with multiple vantage points to take in the
panorama of the Archipelago. In turn the staggered volumes shape the
introverted space of the main courtyard which is the focal point of daily life
in the summer months. Protected from the northern winds and with shaded corners
this space is an inversion of the magnificent scale of the Archipelago. The
experience of the site shifts between the two constituent elements of the
Archipelago, between sky and horizon.
