RESIDENTIAL ARCHITECTS IN MANI AND THE PELOPONNESE, GREECE
LOCI Architects is a residential architecture studio working across Mani, the Peloponnese and Athens, Greece. Inspired by the concept of genius loci — the distinctive “spirit of place” described by Christian Norberg-Schulz — our work seeks to create meaningful homes that respond to landscape, climate and culture.
Founded by architect Jamie Anderson, formerly of Aiolou Architects, the studio continues a long-standing vision: to design contemporary yet deeply contextual architecture rooted in the Greek landscape. From coastal homes in Mani to hillside residences in the Peloponnese, we design spaces that feel both timeless and personal.
We work with clients from Greece and abroad who are building new homes, renovating traditional properties or investing in holiday residences. Our services include architectural design, planning and permit guidance, project management and interior design — offering a complete and carefully considered process from concept to completion.
Every project begins with understanding the land: its terrain, materials, light, history and atmosphere. We believe that architecture in Mani and the Peloponnese must respond to its powerful landscape, local building traditions and climate conditions. By combining contemporary design thinking with respect for local character, we create homes that belong.
Whether you are planning to build a house in Mani, renovate a property in the Peloponnese or develop a residential project in Greece, we guide you through the process with clarity, creativity and professional integrity.
EARTH, STONE AND WOOD: ARCHITECTURE IN MANI
Our design solutions are rooted in the landscape of Mani and the wider Peloponnese, responding carefully to the surrounding land, stone, light and Mediterranean climate. At the same time, we incorporate contemporary thinking in interiors, materials and furnishings, creating homes that feel both timeless and current.
We design with simplicity, allowing architectural and styling elements to play their own role as subtle highlights within a personalised scenography. Each residential project in Mani or elsewhere in Greece is shaped around the lifestyle of its owners — whether that means cooking and gathering around an outdoor kitchen, relaxing in shaded terraces, or inviting friends for long summer evenings.
We believe homes should feel personal and intuitive from the start. By combining architectural clarity with carefully selected materials — contemporary yet sometimes vintage — we create spaces that feel grounded in place while offering a refined and comfortable way of living.
EVERY SINGLE
DETAIL
DETAIL
We work closely with selected shops and architectural salvage yards in Athens and across the Peloponnese to source beautiful historic elements that can be re-used and thoughtfully incorporated into our residential projects in Mani and beyond. These range from reclaimed timber floors and hand-crafted doors to marble basins, clay vessels and carefully chosen pieces of furniture.
Our extensive and continually evolving library of finishes and materials allows us to respond precisely to each site and client. Over time, we have built trusted relationships with specialist suppliers in furnishings, appliances and textiles throughout Greece, enabling us to deliver homes that feel both grounded in place and refined in detail.
