SCORPIOS / K-STUDIO / ANNABELL KUTUCU / MICHAEL SCHICKINGER

Scorpios is an holistic place. It has been developed by a cross disciplinary design team led by Michael Schickinger of Lambs and Lions as the visionaire and creative director of the project. 

 

Inspired by Michael`s vision, we worked closely with him and Annabell Kutucu, decorator, to develop Scorpios` master plan and architectural language.

 

The design result is an atmospheric experience that celebrates beach culture and transcends across the various design disciplines to present a total experience that submerges the visitor from the master plan to its every little detail.

 

We tried to infuse Scorpios with much of the traditional materials and construction techniques found in cycladic architecture to root it in its site and context.  It was then peppered with collected objects found by Michael and Annabell whilst traveling.

 

Mykonos is a multi-faceted island, celebrating the contrast between its many layers. 

Starting with its natural setting it is a place that revels in acute juxtapositions with its hot, bold rocky landscape and its refreshing deep, blue seas, Mykonos is a place of contrasts.

 

You can party 24 hours a day; you can eat out at exclusive restaurants and enjoy shopping; you can focus on water sports or have quieter time relaxing in more secluded locations surrounded by the beautiful rocky landscape. Even when summer is in full swing one can find a slice of the island that caters for their needs. 

We wanted Scorpios to be a stage that invites all aspects of Mykonos life but always with a focus on leisure. The design is inspired by natural materials that set a laid back, down to earth and comfortable back drop for all the different activities that will take place there. A place that simultaneously excites the senses and calms the soul.
