A two-story mansion with unusual geometric outlines has been built in Cyprus for a large family. It is about this house that we can say that «the form covers the content». A dynamic facade with a variety of curves distinguishes the building from other similar houses.

Architectural firm Tsikkinis Architecture Studio has completed work on a private home called Laiki Lefkothea, located in sunny Cyprus. The house stands out from the crowd for its unusual shape. Beams resemble a kind of shell, «protecting» house and tenants from external stimuli.

Natural materials (wood and stone) are used for both the facade and interior decoration. Different mix of textures, color palette of white, gray and brown shades create a calm and cozy atmosphere in the house. The interior is made in the style «minimalism», but tasteful. On the ground floor there is an open space of the hotel and kitchen with a dining room opening onto a terrace. And upstairs there are bedrooms.
