Set on a privileged location that overlooks the sandy beach of Lia, Frida is one of two sister villas that can be rented separately or together to accommodate larger parties. This luxurious 5 bedroom residence affords spectacular views that extend all the way to the distant bay of Kalafatis. Although not a literal reproduction, the house recalls the vernacular design with its stark white walls and curved edges that soften its clean-lined geometry. The landscape has been left untouched, to integrate the property to its harsh yet poetic surroundings. Known for his contemporary lines, the architect acknowledges the location yet takes a more contemporary view. The outdoor area is perfectly attuned to the view yet deliberately designed. Polished concrete floorings contrast beautifully with the soothing emerald waters of the infinity swimming pool. The exceptionally large lounge and dining area is sheltered from the natural elements, yet offers panoramic views of the Aegean expanse. There is nothing as conventional as a simple front door to take you into the house, just an arched portal that opens to the heart of the house. The veranda lies just beyond, visible through large openings that offer a first glimpse of the sea. The Mykonian aesthetics dictate the basic vocabulary of the house’s interior. Stark white surfaces and clean lines reflect the bold geometry of the exterior. The palette is natural, in soothing tones of beige, brown and grey. Simple yet elegant, the living room features high wooden ceilings and designer furnishings that are accentuated by the lack of ornamentation. The stylish dining area is served by a well-appointed kitchen. The bedrooms are bright and airy, with natural light piercing in through tall windows that blur the distinction between inside and out. The minimal decoration is complimented by a few antique pieces that grant a sophisticated touch. Great attention has been given to every detail, with designer beds and carefully selected upholstery creating an ultimately relaxing feel. There is also a separate guest house with two bedrooms that is ideal to accommodate your guests. (MHTE: 1173K92000979201)
