Aelia House
Living room of Aelia House with linen seating and open doors to the sea

Indoor spaces

Rooms that keep the light out until you want it

Lime-washed plaster, cool floors, linen everywhere. The interiors were made to be lived in with wet feet and sandy hands.

Interiors

The house is one continuous room that occasionally becomes several. Curved plaster softens every corner, oak and rattan carry the warmth, and the palette never leaves sand, chalk and olive. Nothing is precious; everything is good.
