Located among the green meadows and the island reeds, next to the famous Kolympithres beach, Parilio – “the sun’s aura” – gets its name from the bright, sunlike optical illusion, often on a luminous ring or halo, caused by sunlight passing through ice crystals in the upper atmosphere. Parilio hotel architecture strives for the creation of a fundamental design reality and highlights the need for a return to the traditional principles of Cycladic architecture where studied simplicity is the protagonist.
The design is influenced by the traditional houses of Paros and inspired by the fortress – like monasteries that one encounters on the island.
