Kalamaki Villa is situated on a foothill near the coast on the west side of the Messinian Gulf in Greece. Designed by MGXM Architects, this luxurious villa blends seamlessly with its natural surroundings.

Architectural Layout

The villa consists of two volumes connected by a patio, which functions as a living area during the summer. The long swimming pool extends from this space, creating a visual link between the villa and the sea. As you enter, you are greeted with a view of the infinity pool, a strip of sea, and the Taygetus Mountain beyond.

Use of Materials

The harmonious design is emphasized by the consistent use of materials. The same marble paves the square before the entrance and the patio, surrounds the pool, and culminates in a waterfall at the pool’s end towards the sea. Natural materials from the Peloponnese, such as marble and stone, are used throughout the building. The walls, dominated by supreme white, reflect light and highlight the contrast between different materials.

Interior Design

The main residence has two stories. The ground level features living areas, while the first floor houses a comfortable bedroom. Large openings on both levels maintain an open space feeling throughout the interior. On the first floor, the master bedroom’s en suite bathroom is designed as a wooden cube, centrally placed in the bedroom and visible along the ascending staircase.

In summary, Kalamaki Villa by MGXM Architects is a luxurious retreat that beautifully integrates with its natural setting. The thoughtful use of materials and open design create a serene and harmonious living space.
