Panorama Residence harmonizes with it’s natural surroundings.
Located in the suburbs of Patras, Greece, Panorama Residence by Façade focuses on integrating the panoramic landscape and surrounding garden into its design. The project involved redesigning both the interior and exterior based on the location’s natural qualities, existing structure, and resident needs.
The residence, structured on three levels, emphasizes optimal circulation while taking full advantage of views and natural light. The middle level, or ground floor, serves as the core of the residence, hosting daytime and overnight functions. The building’s characteristic geometry and transparency enhance views of the Gulf of Patras, the Panachaiko mountain range, and the redesigned garden.
Façade Studio integrates natural elements with modern design.
The garden, designed by Façade architectural studio with biophilic principles, offers a leisurely strolling experience. Following the architectural resolution, linear plantings at the entrance gradually transition into free-flowing arrangements across the estate’s levels. The perimeter zone features native bushes blending with surrounding olive groves, while a network of paths leads to two large grassy clearings for activities and recreation. These areas are surrounded by Mediterranean plants, creating a sustainable, year-round landscape of botanical interest.
