Located in the traditional Corfiot olive groves, this design takes inspiration from the island’s rich heritage and stunning views. Built on a rocky hillside, the building opens up to the sky and sea, using a grid pattern on the facades that connects with the natural surroundings. The result is composed by the building, the horizon and the blue sea.

The design builds on separating the structural parts from the non-structural ones, giving the building a clean and simple look. Large windows and canvas shades let in plenty of natural light and air, creating a strong connection with the outdoors. The transparency of the design allows the building to blend into its setting, bringing together the horizon and the sea, along with the clear structure and simple facades that put the focus on natural beauty.

Using materials that respect local traditions, the building features half-timbered plaster, concrete slabs and walls made from local stone, along with light gray iron windows. By combining modern design with traditional craftsmanship, Aether House creates a peaceful and timeless retreat, celebrating a continuous dialogue between architecture, nature, and the island’s history.
