A House With A View In Zakynthos

- Clara Renner
On 2.5 acres of smooth slope in the northeast Island of Zakynthos, Greece sits a high-altitude 275 square-meter house with awed views from each room.
The mind behind the project, architect Katerina Valsamaki, focused on integrating the house with its landscape – low vegetation, vineyards, and olive trees – making it a wish to retire earlier. Bordering the domicile is a low-traffic road to the west and the clear Ionian sea on the east; with the simpatico touch of sliding glass panels, it’s easy to unify with the tranquil surroundings.
