Residence Renovation in Mykonos

Renovation, Research and Design

Constance House

For The KS Project architectural practice, renovating a house in Mykonos always poses as a creative challenge. With our main design principle being bridging the past and the future in every project while respecting the history and tradition of the existing residence and the location it is connected to, as well as a deep love for modern architectural innovations, we always aim high in creating spaces that not only tell stories, but match today’s needs and lifestyle too.

So, inspired by the beautiful area of Matogianni where the property is located, and the personal preferences and functional requirements of the owner, our architectural team undertook the design, configuration, renovation and oversight of the work for this residence.

As part of the remodeling, we decided to maintain the quite useful pre-existing architectural layout of the two floors. However, several small-scale modifications and improvements were required to meet the requirements of a fully functional modern house. Simultaneously, we developed an entirely new open-plan layout of the spaces, in close cooperation with the owner and bearing in mind his lifestyle and the functional demands he presented to us.

In terms of interior design, natural materials prevail, combined with the selection of soft colors exuding serenity and warmth. Regarding the lighting, we took a new approach, highlighting the space and its aesthetics to the maximum. The astute utilization of natural light, the “marriage” of the area’s traditional Cycladic elements with a modern minimal tone – which in essence has always been a characteristic feature of the island’s architecture – as well as the design that places man and his needs at the center of every space, create a residence that evokes warm and welcoming feelings from its visitors.

This balance was achieved through the way we typically approach and implement projects of similar nature at The KS Project. With offices in Athens and Mykonos, our architectural practice maintains a constant collaboration with a dynamic team of architects, civil engineers, mechanical engineers and electrical engineers, brought together to ensure the optimal execution of each project, always in conjunction with experienced builders and specialized crews. Meanwhile, our deep love for architecture, our experience of more than a decade in the field, the careful selection of partners of all specialties, as well as the continuous monitoring of international design trends, allow us to give a distinct identity and style to each project we undertake.
