Octopus is a new residence located in the Ramos area on Serifos Island. The property includes the main house and three reconstructed buildings, known as ‘cells’ or ‘pens’, which date back to before 1955. The main house consists of four contiguous volumes, which together form a living room, dining room, kitchen, office, two bedrooms, and two bathrooms.
A large, covered terrace with a pergola is situated on the east side (front) of the residence, while the west (rear) side features a ‘closed’ curved-walled courtyard. The three reconstructed buildings are repurposed into hospitality spaces designed for friends and guests.
The materials used throughout the property are uncoated stone walls and colored earth-toned pressed putty, enhancing the natural and rustic feel of the design. The pergolas are made of chestnut wood and reed, blending with the surrounding environment.
