At Block722, we envisioned Eco Villa at Gundari Resort, Folegandros as a dialogue between land, architecture, and memory. Perched on the cliffs, the villa merges with the island’s raw beauty through local stone, plaster, wood, willow, and olive trees. We designed sheltered courtyards and terraces that invite both gathering and solitude, always in harmony with the natural environment. Our goal was to reflect the unhurried rhythm of Folegandros—to create a retreat that feels timeless, serene, and deeply rooted in place.
