With a breathtaking view of the Aegean Sea, Asprolithos Villa was designed to reflect the simplicity and aesthetic of traditional Greek design. Constructed of locally sourced stone, each of the three villas has been whitewashed to maximise the reflection of light and heat. Each of the villas is connected to the other by large outdoor communal areas, surrounded by a contrasting raw stone wall. Inside, the 40 square metre spaces have been divided into zones by raising the living area, and recessing parts of the kitchen. The villa's built-in sofa allows the area around it to function as additional storage, while also doubling as a small desk. Throughout the villa, the focus is always looking out towards the sea. Creating a calm relaxing environment as you move from zone to zone.

@danquaylesitsspeltpotatoe8307 2 года назад

"pool" you mean small bath!

@somanyquestions3180 2 года назад

This is beautiful, but like many others, I was a bit disconcerted by the lack of bathroom privacy. Looking at the floor plans and the shot of the bathroom at 4:51, I think the toilet is actually in a separate niche behind the shower, and also has a door. Not sure why this wasn't made clearer in the video, though. "Can I poop in peace?" is pretty high on my list of criteria for good appartment design.

@michelleandreya7208 2 года назад

"Can I poop in peace?"🙏🏿 😄😄

@brakbrak9966 2 года назад

Yes you can see the toilet with the doors on a plan

@princessadora 2 года назад

there is a vanity across from the shower and toilet. she said it in the same segment (its next to the shower you can see the toilet window)

@aloeee 2 года назад

exactly even the steam from the shower would fill up the room anytime you use it. The only way I could see this design used is for a solitary person who didn't plan on having any guests bc the design simply doesn't allow for proper function beyond providing the basic necessities

@MTMF.london 3 месяца назад

@@aloeee This is a summer house, not a full time residence and probably for a single person or at most a couple. I like the fact that is provides no more than the basics to relax and enjoy the place.

@doctordonnanoble 2 года назад

Everything is open storage in this home, you would have to be a hardcore minimalist to maintain its feeling of openness, and to keep it from looking super messy in general. I think in this case it's definitely a home designed for aesthetics over practicality. Absolutely beautiful as a summer cottage for a few days though.

@aishanibhattacharya391 2 года назад

exactly. having people over would be a bit of a problem, even if its purpose is as a summer house. too much open-ness is appreciable in some houses, especially if there are still subtle separation. It has a great lighting and setup sure, but the open concept here is a bit of a bummer.

@cs2181 2 года назад

It's clearly a hotel room...

@treelo11 2 года назад

It's not a home. It's for summer getaways etc. It's very hard to get water supply to those islands unless you're a big hotel etc. No one would live there long term.

@pedrohenriquemora2797 2 года назад

Exactly. Perfect for a hotel room. I would very much like to be hosted there. In that case, the kitchen could be a storage place for the guests instead.

@cocoacoolness 2 года назад

Yes exactly, there isn't even any kind of pantry or place to store food. Just a small fridge and a couple of small cupboards under the sink and stove.

@Tze52 2 года назад

Open shower right next to the bed, towel rack before the sink, the pull out bed on wheels...just a few things I question

@jenkenj 2 года назад

I 100% agree, while it's visually beautiful it seems there was more focus on form over function here

@strawberrydialectics 2 года назад

visually its beautiful, but its strange that it can sleep potentially 6 people, but there is zero privacy for the bathroom, and no storage. you basically force people to have each of their travel bags laying out everywhere, cluttering up walkways. i would have given the closet and bathroom a folding wooden shutter door. the closet inset looks lovely open like this in the video, but practically, visitors will have more things to store. i would have made the bed lift up to have storage inside/underneath. i'd replace the wall sconces with ceiling lamps and added another open shelf over the sink, chuck the stools & add another 2 cabinets, leave out one shelf over the fridge to make the fridge a little bigger. last, i would have added a semi-transparent white curtain dividing the bed space and the lounge space.

@carolinefalvey683 2 года назад

You haven't understood the design at all....folding doors & curtains...!.. Its beautifully designed for its purpose to sleep 4 people in a minimalist environment.

@strawberrydialectics 2 года назад

@@carolinefalvey683 so only minimalist people will stay here? once there are actual guests who bring their travel bags & need to poop & shower like humans, not everyone will necessarily appreciate the open bathroom & cluttering up the space because theres nowhere to put their bags. even for just 2 people, i'd rather have some privacy in the bathroom..

@shibolinemress8913 2 года назад

@Silaqui21 2 года назад

Well, it obviously is pretty, but what about functionality? Many people in the comments pointed out lack of privacy in the bathroom and lack of closed storage. What concerns me is that almost no sitting space offers back support. The only one that does is the sofa in the living room, but only if you consider leaning on a bare wall a back support.

@penitent2401 Год назад

Only 1 bedroom so it's only for a single person or a couple. Curtains around the windows solve the privacy. As for the rest, theres a bit of room for your own customisations, bit of shelving or cushions here and there.

@guambyguambelle1864 2 года назад

I think as a summer home, it's perfect! As long as you are careful who's able to view your shower, the openness means great ventilation, right? I doubt these tiny spaces were built for people bringing tons of stuff. Is there plenty of markets nearby to get daily foods and drinks? Simplicity can be so radiant and relaxing! 💞

@fulvias.8463 2 года назад

@sbffsbrarbrr 2 года назад

This seems more a hotel room than a villa, and even most hotel rooms have a small closet and a door to the bathroom. The kitchen might be too basic for an extended stay, especially since the location looks a bit remote. I do like the outdoor space but don't think this would be my first choice if staying in the area.

@merrymaid2890 2 года назад

Exactly. I am not a sleek minimalist. I want colors, pattens and lots of personality. I myself live in a small studio apartment that I have decorated in an eclectic way with a mix of the 70’s and a Scandinavian style, with red, orange and yellow as my base colors. Men, women, children tell me that it is cozy or hygge. I love these videos but I still would like more individuality, craziness and less impersonal minimalism.

@Arylith 2 года назад

@vampiresiren2 2 года назад

Built in storage in the bed and other couch would have been practical. Storage shelves in the kitchen and more power point would have made it perfect. It feels very open but more clever storage would have made it perfect

@eeenyc5959 2 года назад

Artsy, Eye pleasing, Minimalistic.,... But I had used furniture like this in the past. You can never get very comfortable or cozy. No backs on the chairs. No deep cushioning on the sofas, no comfy backs to the beds. Even the outdoors, no cozy recliners, lounge chairs. Just thin cushions or none. It just not pleasing to the overall experience besides visually.

@JoannaGryzewska 2 года назад

I think it would be helpful to let viewers know if the space was designed with Airbnb in mind - that changes perspective. Nothing looks comfortable in this space. It might be ok for a weekend with your family but not a long-term stay. The desk has no room for your knees under (and it's too high with this chair), so it's pretty useless. The counter and chairs in the kitchen are weirdly placed - one person is watching the wall while the other enjoys the view through the window. The opened shower might create an unnecessary wet floor all around the space after someone takes a shower and someone else wants to use toiled (not saying that it might be intimidating to shower there at all). However, it's still better than showering over the toilet seat, which is common in Greece.

This is easily one of my top fav. The deco is very minimalist and so clean but yet manage to not look too empty and dystopian thanks to the tasteful use of wood, timber materials that helps give natural contrast to the predominantly white coloured interior. Love the curvy radius applied to many parts of the interior too, gives it fluidic flow throughout the space. Also loves the white raw rock texture of the exterior wall, looks so rich and beautiful. The best of all is the cat's cameo appearances 😺 Kudos to the designers, this is very inspiring, I love it ⭐
