Residence in Konia | Paphos, Cyprus

Intermediate transparency

The two-story residence was designed for a four-member family, with the aim of creating a modern, minimal, and functional space that integrates harmoniously into the Mediterranean landscape. The composition is based on clean geometric volumes and horizontal lines, with a strong emphasis on transparency and continuity between interior and exterior spaces. The combination of white surfaces, wood, and metal creates an ensemble of understated elegance and tranquility.

Design Philosophy

The residence offers a contemporary way of living that focuses on functionality and continuous contact with the natural environment. The architectural approach combines simplicity with the quality of light and space, creating a residential whole that meets the family’s needs.

Spatial Organization

The ground floor is organized around a central living area, where the living room and dining room are directly connected to the large terraces and garden. The kitchen, in contact with the main space, is supported by utility areas and connects to a covered veranda that hosts an outdoor barbecue. The interior layout follows the logic of an open plan, allowing for visual continuity and the flow of natural light. On the upper floor, three bedrooms and their corresponding bathrooms ensure the necessary privacy for the family members.

Materials and Lighting

Inside, natural textures and earthy tones dominate. The wooden flooring, leather furniture, and metal details in the staircase highlight the minimalist aesthetic and convey a sense of warmth. The subtle integration of lighting enhances the simplicity of the form and accentuates the clarity of the lines.
