Τhe dwelling is located In a land with fruit trees reaching the sea, at
the old mouth of Kerinitis river. The Corinthian gulf in the north with Evritania
in the opposite bank, the gorges of the Peloponnese in the south, with the
trapezoidal top Rouskio be raised among them, are the elements among the north
wind and the mainsail from the west, that have defined
the building design.
The house grows linearly in the north-south axis. It is a stone formation deposited by the torrent
streams.
Is a regular, solid
resting on land that was converted from a stone volume after subtractions, sections and surface removals.
The owner’s
love for climbing and exploring affected the management
of the volume as amonolithic element, using stone on all external surfaces and the patency / approach of
the roof.
The eastern
and southern side of the volume is punctured, leaving the winter light to
penetrate. The openings of the south are sun protected with cantilevered canopies, depending on the
openings’ height. The continuous wall to the West is interrupted by a patio,
illuminating the public spaces of the house. The outdoor dining area at the
southwest courtyard, covered with a roof-strut, is wind protected, accepting
also the warm sun of winter. The north arcade, that consists the building ending
to the seaside, is the place for summer rest.
The house expands
into three levels on a vertical axis to the coast, escalating amphitheatrically,
overlooking the sea. The public functions of the residence are
placed in a large, stone shelter, which constitutes the lower part of
the building. It consists of two levels, separating with a small
elevation the kitchen from the dining room. Connected at the
narrowest point in the second part, the private, situated half floor higher,
in a separate two-storey stone volume, started buried in earth and rise up. In
the highest level are placed the three bedrooms and below the ground level are
the guest house and the utility rooms, using independent entrances.
With the
opening of the new road Corinth-Patras was great quantity
of spare stone, which was used for covering the whole building,
pieced together in dry wall. The wood dominates in interior domestic spaces and
outdoor halls the paneling made with sheets of anodized aluminum, in the
color offrames.
