Oliva Residences in Lefkada

Successive levels

Close to the Sivota settlement, three luxury holiday residences are developed on a verdant hillside, each one situated on a different level to ensure privacy and provide uninterrupted views of the sea.

Spatial Organization

The largest ground-floor residence is situated at the top level, featuring three en-suite bedrooms and a spacious open-plan area that includes the living, dining, and kitchen. A loft spanning across two of the bedrooms, contains an additional en-suite bedroom, accessible via an internal staircase. The two smaller residences are organized in a similar interior layout and are positioned successively on lower levels.

Landscape Design

The exterior spaces include a series of relaxation areas, such as a swimming pool, lounge, dining as well as barbeque area. A long pathway created by consecutive retaining walls provides access to all the residences. Finally, the three buildings are designed as undercut structures, achieving perfect integration and harmony with the surrounding natural landscape.

Material Palette

Natural stone, plaster coating, a ceiling made of exposed concrete and dark wood are the dominant materials of the design. Finally, a series of vertical louvres act as sliding screens, controlling the natural light entering each residence.
