The Southwand House by K-Studio reimagines the stone tower vernacular of Messinia with refined concrete forms and linear modernism. Local quarried stone walls intersect crisp horizontal slabs, offering a sculptural take on traditional Greek architecture. The structure feels rooted in place yet contemporary in execution, with material contrasts emphasizing shadow, texture, and rhythm across the façade.

Designed for coastal living, the residence features breezy terraces, framed sea views, and a palette of tactile finishes that flow from outside to in. Pale concrete, plaster, and exposed stone carry through the interior, enhancing the dialogue between tradition and modernity. Southwand House creates a serene retreat that honors its landscape through form and proportion—merging memory, material, and modern architectural clarity.
