X house
ANTIPAROS/GREECE
X house valorizes and accentuates its natural context through the structural organization of its inherent characteristics. In this direction a reinterpretation of elements of traditional Cycladic architecture, referring to the management of the interrelation between the natural and structured environment is attempted. These elements relate to the gradually experienced multiple degrees of private and public as well as closed and open space.The location of the house in the valley aims at the optimization of the view and orientation.The principal gesture consists in a local expansion of the valley. The principal functions of the house are organized around a central core-atrium that constitutes the centre of activities.
