Panagia residence

Basic principle of our company is to create structures that are monitored in detail from the first step both in construction and in economics, through producing complete construction plans and making the corresponding budget.
Panagia Project As with all our projects, here too, the main concern was to create a structure that meets the requirements of economy, functionality, and especially safety, remaining in compliance with all the requirements of modern building regulations. Our aim from the outset was to meet the needs of the customer, without being able to overlook the environment in which the residence was going to be developed. This meant adapting the architecture of the project on the traditional architecture of the island and respect the natural environment in which the project was developed. Moreover, there were few challenges we had to face, such as the difficult weather conditions during the winter months and water scarcity that exists within the summer. These challenges, of course, gave us the opportunity to study and apply relevant intelligence solutions mentioned below. 1 .
B) Location Were Antiparos is a small holiday paradise in the Cyclades Islands of Greece. The calm cycladic landscape, with the scattered churches, the famous cave and the Enetic castle, is ideal for sightseeing. The variety of the coast, where golden sand beaches give way to small remote bays with blue-green waters, offers magical moments. The island of Antiparos is located southwest of Paros, from which is divided by a shallow channel, of approximately 4n.m. wide, and 4,2m deep. The island covers an area of 35sq.klm, and because of its long shape it has 57klm of beautiful coasts. (from http://www.antiparos-isl.com ) As shown in the figures that follow, the project of Panagia is located in short distance south of Antiparos.
