Greece's islands all have their own character, and GERNER GERNER PLUS has designed this home on Crete according to the specific context in which it sits. The home has mountains behind it and the seaside in front, and it takes advantage of that idyllic setting with a combination of color, view, and structuration.
GERNER GERNER PLUS's home is designed with two main volumes connected to one another by a small walkway and staircase. The villa is so arranged such that it offers any resident a 180-degree panorama of the Lybian Sea. One of the buildings is designed for guests while the other is for the homeowners, but the sloping layout gives all parties access to the environment.
