Summer Story Single Family House
Summer Story Single Family House
Summer Story is a single family house in Roustika, Crete, at the foot of the Lefka Ori mountains. The house was built for a French couple to host a large extended family in summer. A large stone arched entrance leads to an enclosed courtyard and recalls the Venetian buildings of the island. Local stone and ocher were used, and the windows, doors and shutters are made of wood. The built in furniture was made by local craftsmen. Traditional Cretan forms are joined with a contemporary approach, so the house appears to have always been there.
