Just outside the area Livadia Kissamou, in an arid and wild landscape where the air and the sea have rounded rocks and convert large boulders into pebbles, there, 50m from the sea, a house was built in the place of an existing building- ruin that was there since 1900.

The aim was to integrate it into the landscape, and the adoption of methods of construction of old buildings in the area, so as, in its final form, to achieve an accommodation fully integrated like 'grew' from the earth.
