Aegean Shelter in Mykonos

Aegean Shelter is a peaceful, grounded residence in Mykonos, shaped by natural textures, vaulted forms, and a soft, minimal palette. The house includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, and a kitchen—all unified by light, rhythm, and handcrafted calm. A refined balance of tradition and modernity defines its intimate yet sculptural interior.

Aegean Shelter is a 120 m² residence that translates the essence of Cycladic living into an interior of sculpted warmth and quiet precision. Located in Mykonos, the house offers a calm domestic landscape defined by arched openings, natural materials, and a restrained yet expressive architectural language.
Designed by K-S Project, under the direction of Konstantina Sygkyridi, the project reimagines local typologies through soft geometries and tactile surfaces. Our studio contributed to the visual representation and refinement of interior elements, highlighting the project’s material clarity and sense of atmosphere.
The layout includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, and a living room. Arches are used as both structural and poetic devices, gently dividing functions while maintaining an open, flowing spatial continuity. Vaulted alcoves, soft corners, and integrated shelving create a layered sense of depth and comfort throughout the interior.
Materials remain close to the earth: lime plaster, warm wood, matte ceramics, and stone finishes form a palette that is cohesive, elemental, and honest. Ceiling beams and custom built-in furniture lend a crafted sensibility, with each surface thoughtfully resolved to create a subtle visual rhythm.
Lighting is intentionally gentle—whether through woven pendants or recessed spotlights—creating intimacy without intrusion. Natural light, meanwhile, is carefully guided into the space, enhancing textures and sculpting volumes.
