Two Residences in Porto Hydra

Within the unique settlement of Porto Hydra, two neighbouring houses from the 1980s unified their outdoor spaces and were fully renovated as holiday homes for two close families.

Because the houses are used during the summer months, the work was carried out in stages: it began in 2022 with the outdoor spaces, the renovation of the first house was completed in 2023 and that of the second in 2024.

The owners’ main requirement for both houses was the addition of guest accommodation. The only way to achieve this was to reduce the living areas on the ground floors, since the upper floors were already well laid out.

As for the outdoor design, between the two houses we created a shaded area that can be used by all residents, while keeping the more private outdoor seating areas outside each kitchen.

The new outdoor flooring in Sinai marble was laid primarily within the boundaries of one house and over a smaller part of the other.
