KAI HOUSE
a villa inspired by the Mediterranean spirit

The interior which aims for a harmonious dialogue between raw structural honesty and refined, warm finishes, fostering a seamless relationship with the natural surroundings.

Interior design of the 300 m² KAI House in a Mediterranean setting was conceived to maximize connection with the surrounding nature. Partly embedded in the ground with a green roof, the house blends exterior and interior through selected floor finishes and the integration of original stone blocks found on site.

A carefully chosen stone monolith, extracted during excavation, serves as the support for the kitchen island and was positioned during the initial shell phase. The rooms’ airiness is accentuated by high ceilings and open sightlines created by the architectural layout, a quality maintained in the interior furnishing.
Structural elements such as exposed concrete ceilings and numerous raw concrete walls were preserved and intentionally contrasted with the warmth of wooden wall cladding and furniture fronts. The design follows a minimalist approach, emphasizing high-quality materials and a thoughtfully curated color palette.

The project includes extensive custom-made furniture alongside pieces from notable design brands (Prostoria, Grupa, Bolia). Thoughtfully designed lighting enhances a variety of atmospheric scenes. An individualized approach to each room is reinforced by a precise concept for creating and positioning more than thirty original artworks designed specifically for this interior, highlighting the project’s contemporary character and uniqueness.

Upon entering, the house opens naturally onto the terrace, pool and sea, creating a sense of space and connection with the surroundings. Kai House offers everything expected of a contemporary private retreat: a swimming pool, sauna, compact fitness studio, half basketball court, outdoor kitchen and barbecue area.

Olive trees, citrus trees, aromatic herbs, the interplay of natural light and shadow, and views of the horizon further enhance the character of the setting. This seamless connection between architecture and landscape creates a place that not only offers guests a comfortable stay, but also invites them to slow down, unwind and fully immerse themselves in the Mediterranean surroundings.
