Kostas R. House

The vacation house outside Athens is placed on a linear plot, framed on two sides by shifted neighboring houses that are to be built. The masterplan dictates the principle of the design

;the diagonal positioning of the 3 houses is revealed in the form of a cut on the first floor which moves backwards and turns towards the sea view. Each side gains a distinct type of semi-open space. A generous, triangular, shaded veranda towards the view. And a semi-enclosed, protected space in the Japanese tradition hovering above the garden on the other.
