Introduction
We are glad to welcome you to Inspiration House -- a place brimming with creativity to craft your cherished memories. While minimalism is often misconceived as mere material purging, our philosophy is rooted in simplicity and our focus extends to abundance: more time, more creativity, more experiences, more satisfaction, more freedom, leading us to conceive the concept behind Inspiration House. Thus, our recipe hinges on your own unique ingredients, your energy, your memories, and we ardently believe youll share your exceptional, unpretentious experience with us.
Design
Spanning 180 m2, Inspiration House is a ground floor property comfortably accommodating up to 6 guests in its 3 en-suite bedrooms. The choice of materials aligns with the minimalist mood, as engineered plaster walls, hand-crafted made-to-order wooden furnishings, industrial design, and forged cement floors and surfaces come together to shape this exceptional space. Enhancing the ambiance of the space, discreet LED light strips beneath the furniture, coupled with strategically limited ceiling lighting, contribute to a more inviting and energizing atmosphere. The continuity of the forged cement floors inside and outside the house, along with the large sliding frames, serves to reinforce this design direction. Our architectural vision was to create an uncluttered yet meticulously detailed space, preserving its fundamental essence. Our triumph lies in transcending material possessions, making way for lifes true treasures: cherished moments shared with loved ones. Indulge in an escape to our adults-only villa, where sophistication meets tranquility, offering breathtaking views and exclusive amenities and revel in the stunning vistas of Souda Bay and the mesmerizing sunset views in the horizon.
