Set high above Ano Rigklia in Western Mani, eks is a contemporary micro-settlement of independent stone residences, offering a unique view into the true character of Mani. Its privileged position and expansive glazed façades open each residence towards the sea, the mountain and the horizon, turning the view into an essential part of everyday experience.
Inspired by the materials of the place and closely tied to the restrained character of Mani, eks feels less as though it was placed here and more as though it emerged from the landscape itself. Privacy, autonomy and architectural clarity come together in a retreat conceived as something more than accommodation: a deeply personal experience, born from the place that gave it form.
At eks, you don't simply stay in Mani. You live through it.
A 45 sq.m. two-storey house for up to four guests, where living opens towards the Messinian Gulf and rest turns towards the mountain. Stone, double-height space and full-height glass shape the interior, while a private terrace and mini pool with jacuzzi extend everyday life outdoors.
Two people, a shared vision and a connection to Mani. The story of eks unfolds in six chapters, tracing how an idea becomes a place and a way of welcoming others. From the first stone to the shared table, each chapter reveals something of the life taking shape here.
