This project concerns the renovation of two existing small apartments and the addition of a semi-outdoor space to an existing building on a hill next to the sea just outside the city of Chania. The small, north-facing openings were noticeably enlarged, and together with the corner glazing, they now provide a 260-degree view from inside the apartments, and the new south-facing openings contributed to their natural air conditioning. The new glass parapet around the perimeter intensifies the clear view of the sea even from the southern bedroom, which is separated from the living room by a movable wooden wall.
