The design of Blue Paradise studios was a challenge, the main goal was to blend historical elegance with modern functionality. A fusion of tradition and innovation, it offers a luxurious and sustainable retreat in the heart of the Ionian Sea (Kefalonia Island). Inspired by the Venetian heritage of the Ionian Islands and the Greek style, the building preserves its architectural elements—arches, balustrades, and decorative cornices—while embracing contemporary aesthetics and sustainability.

The hotel's color palette is inspired by the natural hues, aligning perfectly with the Blue Paradise identity. Shades of blue, reminiscent of the sky and sea, blend harmoniously with earthy tones inspired by sand and rock formations.

Natural materials such as marble, granite, rattan and solid wood create a minimal, timeless atmosphere, while the hotel's plan prioritizes comfort and functionality. The rooms offer flexible configurations to suit diverse needs, from solo travelers to families. A standout feature is the attic apartments, providing panoramic sea views and a private retreat for long-term guests.

Sustainability was integral to the project, with energy-efficient technologies, solar panels, and smart climate control minimizing environmental impact. Thoughtful material selection ensures durability, while the hotel's orientation maximizes natural light and ventilation. The surrounding landscape, featuring local and tropical plants, reinforces harmony between architecture and nature.
