Between city and nature, isolation and extroversion, we are invited to create comfortable and safe living conditions in a completely hostile rural environment. The owners’ love for outdoor living and their desire to visit nature often determined the typology of the house. A design approach that includes the typology of the traditional Cypriot rural house has been adopted as the beginning of the concept, i.e. the private family life enclosed within its own boundaries with inner courtyards being the basic structural elements of the residence.
