Bobotis + Bobotis Architects have designed a villa overlooking Fokos Bay in Mykonos, blending modern luxury with the island’s natural beauty. Set on a cliff, Casa Gaia offers breathtaking 270-degree views of the Aegean Sea. The villa’s design flows with the island’s landscape, featuring a terracotta-tiled terrace that effortlessly connects indoor and outdoor spaces. Each room is positioned to maximize views, filled with natural light and earthy tones. The house spans three levels. The top floor is a private haven with a master bedroom, swimming pool, outdoor bar and fire pit. The mid-level includes two bedrooms, a kitchen, a living room, an outdoor kitchen and a yoga space. The lower level houses more bedrooms, a communal lap pool, outdoor showers, a cinema room, a bar, and staff quarters. The villa’s facade uses local stone and smooth lime coating, chosen for its durability and natural look. Corten steel door frames add a rustic touch that echoes the surrounding landscape. The expansive outdoor terrace, with a wooden pergola and straw-thatched roof, merges seamlessly with the living areas. Inside, archways create a fluid transition between rooms, while custom wooden details and earthy materials give the interiors a warm, Mediterranean feel. The master bedroom lies at the heart of the villa, featuring a freestanding green marble shower and panoramic sea views. A vaulted ceiling enhances the sense of space, making it a serene retreat within the villa.
About
Bobotis+Bobotis Architects is a private architectural practice, based in Athens, founded by Theofanis Bobotis and Lukas Bobotis, with a portfolio spanning both the public and private sectors, in Greece and abroad, ranging from residential to commercial to cultural projects.
No matter its size, we treat every project—from the smallest to the largest—with equal importance. Our clients’ satisfaction is invaluable to us and we pride ourselves on fulfilling their brief and requirements by delivering high-quality, cost-effective solutions on budget and on time . We favour energy-efficient and sustainable design built in respect of the environment.
By its very nature, architecture is a field that is constantly evolving, as it is driven forward alongside rapidly developing technical progress. As such, we are continually motivated to design adaptable buildings that can respond to and support changing needs, environmental factors and human relations. Inspired by new materials and functionality, we incorporate the latest technology and most innovative materials available in construction to create a contemporary architectural expression as we design, create and bring to life the concepts we have conceived on paper. Each stage of the process requires critical questioning and aesthetic choices that combine to create an overall result that is both timeless and a reflection of its era.
We provide design and supervision services, with notable projects including the interior renovation of Athens International Airport , designing and working on the new terminal for Thessaloniki Airport , two completed archaeological museums in Patras and Crete and freight centres in Greece and Italy. In addition to airports, museums and commercial spaces, we also work on residential projects, office buildings, banks, sports facilities, shopping centres, retail chains, convention centres, urban planning, yacht design and more.
