Scorpios Bodrum is settled on a 75-thousand square meter peninsula resembling a small Aegean village with its scale and amenities. The master plan includes eleven individual island villas and resort features such as a village square, reception, cabanas for sport and leisure treatments, beach decks, retail areas, and f&b facilities. The project sits on the footprints of the previous villa settlements preserving nature as much as possible. Taking inspiration from Aegean old towns and their relation to land and nature, 80 centimeters-thick masonry stone walls are the constituent architectural element used throughout the project. The level of craftsmanship, selecting and collecting the stones from the site seeks to praise ‘genius loci’. The island villas are also simple yet modern interpretations of the traditional Bodrum houses, with cube-shaped exterior walls exploding on every side, providing spacious interiors and ensuring complete privacy from their surroundings simultaneously.
