Botanica Hills Homes
Ancient influences, eco-friendly modernity, harmony with nature
Greece has a history of distinctive and beautiful styles of architecture, including Venetian, neo-classical, Greco-Roman and simple stone construction.
Venetian influence: Houses normally have simple lines and beautiful proportions that fit naturally into Mediterranean country and waterside landscapes. A seemingly timeless design that works well with small and larger houses. Crete has many examples across the island.
Neo-classical: Refined lines and proportions, but tending to be better suited to large properties. Frequently with columns, capitals, friezes. Influences drawn from ancient Greek and Roman architecture.
Traditional stone: Generally works best with smaller houses but carries a construction cost premium. It is often preferable to use some stone facings and use liberally in the house surrounds rather than making entire stone buildings.
Classic Mediterranean: In more recent times Greece has also absorbed some of the classic Mediterranean villa style found through Italy, Spain and France.
You will find touches of all these have influenced Botanica Hills architecture. Or if you buy a plot for bespoke construction, our architects can work with your thinking.
Please note: Botanica Hills has conditions controlling some aspects of style and colours, etc to preserve the overall visual integrity of the environment.
Even though style might echo the past, we base everything around the most modern standards of construction, ecological soundness, functionality and quality of finish.
Most importantly, when you wake in a Botanica Hills home you feel part of nature itself.
