Τhis is the latest project of entrepreneur, Georgios C. Carabellas, founder and
creative director of TR2 THE KOLONAKI EDITION concept store.
This is his home. In his Island.
A wondrous 400m garden with perennial palm and fig trees and four old
“kantounes”-small shacks- built in different eras, with the first one dating back to
1900, becomes one of the interior projects of Mr. Carabellas.
Using only local craftsmen, aiming to preserve the character of the houses, the
designer creates a total private residence which includes a Master House and two
Guest Houses (all of them en suite) and the Kitchen. A vintage iron reclaimed door
is the entrance to a world apart, a house located at the foremost peak of the
“Chora” (the central village) with breathtaking view across the Aegean Sea and yet a
five minutes walk from the central square.
Spaces that have clear aesthetics and ooze eclecticism. Design items collected from
the entrepreneur’s extended travels, from flea markets in London, South France
and Morocco, bring a boho-chic and multicultural aura to the traditional minimal
atmosphere of the house, bridging ideally the old with the new.
The white leather Chesterfield sofa, the PRISMATIC Vitra coffee table, the 17th
century wooden opium bed from Afghanistan, the Parentesi Lamp by A Castiglioni,
the typical skyrian “sfa” in both guest rooms, a small attic on which the bed was
traditionally placed, the Phillip Starck gnomes next to the wooden Byzantine
thrones, the SMEG products in the kitchen, the Flaminia bathroom equipment and
THE WHITE COMPANY LONDON linen collection, as well as the iconic TR2 items
designed by Georgios C. Carabellas make bold design statements in
TR2 THE ROOMS.
Long laid-back breakfasts with homemade marmalades, bio local products and
freshly baked bread from the village’s best bakery and the famous pies of Mrs. Kali,
Complimentary welcoming drinks on the veranda with delicious Skyrian treats
and the mouth-watering “Faltaina's” homemade ice cream. Lunches or dinners with
a selective menu can be served upon request.
At TR2 THE ROOMS you can find for you leisure: lifestyle coffee table books, poetry
and literature selected from the owner’s private library. The TR2 THE ROOMS
recherche iPod playlist, a music compilation created by TR2 experts especially for
TR2 THE ROOMS. The TR2 THE ROOMS FILM FESTIVAL , featuring our favorite all
time classic summery movies, free pop corns included! “Tavli “/ back gammon and
board games. Free Wi-Fi and last but not least your very own TR2 GONE TO THE
BEACH KIT.
An undiscovered island less than a thirty minutes flight from Athens is waiting to
be explored. Half green with lush forests and pine trees touching the water, half
bare with the occasional thyme bushes and almost extra terrestrial rock formations.
Deserted beaches even in August. Day trips or private lessons with sailboats. A
great culture well known all over the world. The unique skyrian Ponnies ready for
horse -back riding. One of the most tasty cuisine all over the Aegean sea.
For the days to come, this is your Island. This is your home.
