MOCNA winner at LIV Hospitality Awards

We are delighted that Mandarin Oriental Costa Navarino has been awarded Architectural Design of the Year at the LIV Hospitality Design Awards 2025.

Recognized in the categories Resort – Luxury and Landscape Design, the project stood out to the jury for its clear architectural vision, its sensitive integration into the Messinian landscape, and its commitment to sustainability as a core design principle.

This distinction is the result of a close collaboration with Tombazis & Associates Architects, Coopers Hill and Greenways, whose shared approach shaped a seamless dialogue between built form and terrain.

A new layer for Dexamenes

Quiet reinvention has become part of the essence of Dexamenes, as the hotel evolves in modest gestures — extending itself layer by layer, season by season.

Delicately sprouting from its robust concrete base, a new chapter in accommodation unfolds with an immediate connection to the horizon. Eight new rooms are nestled within a lightweight canopy that hovers above the solid tanks, tracing the line of the building without overwhelming it. Slender components dematerialize the presence of the new level, honoring the original ethos while offering a fresh perspective — and a quiet sense of uplift.

Explore the story of continuation of Dexamenes on designboom.

Right Here, Right Now | Friday Matters by K-Studio & ODASSIEN with Piers Taylor

Friday Matters is a forum that brings design conversations out of the studio and into a convivial, interactive setting — blending the rigor of a lecture, the intimacy of a gathering, and the energy of a Friday night out.

Last October, we invited the design community at Castor Place, where our guest Piers Taylor walked us through his research on context, locality, and the vernacular in architecture, while interactive curiosities from top creatives ignited a playful exploration of culture, and creativity.
