A Modern Sanctuary in Dionysos: Redefining Residential Elegance with Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Integration

A&M ARCHITECTS as Architects

Nestled in a serene neighborhood of Dionysos, an old residence has been reborn with a contemporary flair, seamlessly blending functionality with harmony. The redesign prioritizes the connection between interior spaces and the surrounding environment, guided by a collaborative effort between the homeowner and the architectural team.

Externally, the residence is defined by its crisp lines and earthy tones. Small balconies have been replaced by expansive terraces offering views of the pool and the surrounding natural landscape. A thoughtful combination of natural materials, such as wood and stone, paired with subtle contrasts in window frames and roofing tiles, creates a façade that integrates effortlessly into its setting.

The home’s layout is centered around the need for unobstructed views, which dictated the spatial arrangement. On the ground floor, private areas include a striking lobby with a circular reception table and a sculptural staircase that immediately captures attention. The master bedroom, exuding grandeur, features a high ceiling and concealed lighting, while the children’s rooms inject color and character with wallpapers reflecting their imaginations.

On the first floor, the living and entertaining areas are bathed in light thanks to large openings and skylights that invite nature indoors. The dining area takes center stage with a commanding view of the mountain, complemented by a minimalist kitchen with a large white stone island that becomes a family gathering point. The spacious living room extends out to the terrace, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow ideal for relaxation. The owner’s study, designed around the view with wooden elements, serves as a refined space for meetings and work.

Art and carefully selected decorative elements infuse the home with warmth and personality. The lighting and furnishings complete the ambiance, while the well-designed outdoor spaces, with their pathways and lighting, offer a retreat for relaxation, making it a perfect escape from urban hustle.
