Project Pantaleon · Lefkada

A house around
an open room.

A Venetian-inspired villa in development, with a double-height living space and a view toward the Ionian islands.

Step inside
Pantaleon exterior concept: a terracotta-roofed villa with a tall central arched window, a stone loggia and a pool.
Original exterior concept supplied by the project.

The arrangement

One balcony.
One shared volume.

The upper bedrooms sit behind a single transverse internal balcony. In front of it, the living space opens through two storeys to the tall central window.

The bedroom glazing faces across that open room, allowing a sightline through the main window toward the sea and islands. The internal balcony is approximately 6.37 metres long and one metre deep.

Dimensioned design concept. Materials, furnishings and the island outlook are illustrative. The staircase follows the upper plan; its position awaits reconciliation between the drawings.

The room at the centre

Light across
two levels.

An Ionian vocabulary

Colour, texture and shade.

Stone and plaster

Pale, textured surfaces to carry the daylight into the room.

Terracotta and timber

The warmth of the exterior roof carried into the proposed interior palette.

Fine ironwork

A light visual boundary across the balcony, keeping the shared volume legible.

Current status

In development.

Pantaleon is not open and has no announced opening date. The exterior image and interior film explore the proposed design. Othisis will publish confirmed decisions, methods and results as the project moves forward.
