The newly constructed Villa Magna in Panormos combines the living, entertaining and artistic ambiance of Mykonos and is a perfect amalgamation of the Mykonian minimalism and the luxurious amenities of the modern world. It is set amidst a generous plot of land that affords sweeping vistas of the Panormos bay, at a premium location, only a few steps away from the famous Panormos bay and beach. This all season contemporary housing project lies in a 14.000 square meter plot and is distinguished by its spacious open-plan design, its meticulously landscaped environment and its diversified outdoor spaces that have been configured into defined zones of art and greenery. The boundaries are blurred between the interior and exterior living spaces and the guests feel a sequence of discrete experiences that can be enjoyed throughout the year as the house has been constructed on the mentality of a four season house. The attention in detail and the quality of the materials can be seen throughout the property.
The main entranceway of the house unfolds into a procession. The whole passageway is covered with a natural grey poured rock crystal stone derived from the combination of granite, marble and quartz and it is planted along its full length with a selection of plants and trees. The materials, the collection objects and the choice of greenery that are used throughout this rhythmic sequence always refer to Greek nature and history. Along the first area of the passageway there are two pairs of old marble millstones of different sizes that have been matched with two old marble built wells on each side, all free standing sculptures. Following that first sculpture installation, there are four old marble sinks with matching marble decorative backdrops placed on the traditional Mykonian stone wall. Besides the old marble sinks, four specially designed lighted canopies featuring climbing plants and accommodating two old marble benches and two plexi-glass benches have been installed creating four intimate protected shady corners. In between the four canopies, six old large clay pots have been specially modified to receive fire installations to provide a mystic ambiance at night time. The eye catches a bright red cast-iron Vienneseantique staircase sculpture that emerges in the background creating an antithesis between the greenery and its red color. This courtyard is meant to be also used as the cocktail area of any event held at the residence. Music from the hidden sound speakers imitating rocks, running water from the old marble sinks creating a fountain-like feeling, special lighting of the sculptures, the canopies and all elements create a feng-shui acoustics experience.
Luxurious Features:

space.
The life-size chess lounge area features white and black pones that have been placed on black and white marble rectangles creating a gaming and playful atmosphere. The guests can play a game of chess or sit at the lounge area and enjoy the view.

ceiling composed of 150 custom-made wood panels of different shapes, reminiscent of the Greek sea, enhanced by the RGB subdued lighting providing red,
blue and green colors and over 16 million different hues. The main staircase, suspended from the ceiling, serves as a sultry sculpture and achieves an air of
transparency and lightness connecting all floors. It is the ethereal bone structure of the house as it is created by 3.500 white pebbles and of 400 fusing
crystals imitating the shape of the pebbles which are weaved together by thread based on their shapes.

enhanced by the antique marble fireplace with the Caryatids details. Next to the fireplace is the actual merge of the exterior and interior of the house where

interior and natural views and sunlight are welcomed into the house.

safe Marseilles deposit, a mirror TV with a decorative old marble corner detail and an egg sculpture complete the artistic view of the living room. In the
