Located at the edge of a small village in the Aegean region of Türkiye, the project site is on a hillside overlooking the Aegean. The design aims to establish a continuity with the traditional stone houses of the village and the fabric they’ve organically formed over the years.

Each house is strategically placed to have an uninterrupted view of the valley and the sea while maintaining the minimum distance set by the local zoning codes. The seemingly scattered and random placement of the houses aim to establish the aforementioned continuity with the village fabric.

Houses are not based on a traditional type. All four are different in size, but are based on basic functional units, living area, bedroom and courtyard that become the massing blocks for each house. Gardens, courtyards and roof terraces are seamlessly connected with the interiors. Here, daily life is equal parts indoor and outdoor.
