The proposed resort settlement in Kato Petali, Sifnos, Greece, provides modern hospitality while respecting the existing village and enhancing the amenities and shared spaces available to its residents. New paths and spaces extend the wandering organic circulation network of Kato Petali. The use of stone and other natural materials and the massing strategies resonate with the island's traditional architecture so that the old and the new blend seamlessly.
The line between public and personal spaces is intentionally blurred to create a calibrated sense of intimacy. Prominently situated between the proposed residences and the old village a new village square is lined with mixed-use buildings. By collaborating with local artisans and businesses, the resort aims to promote cultural exchange and economic growth within the village
