The colors of the Mediterranean

Pedrali furnishes the Collini Suites & Villas resort in Mykonos with its outdoor collections that enhance the project as well as the landscape

A stone’s throw from paradise. This is the impression made by Collini Suites & Villas, an exclusive resort in Fanari, Mykonos, with a breathtaking view of the crystalline blue Aegean Sea. Designed by Sofia Apergi and Matina Karava of AirTec studio, the complex is full of Mediterranean touches, including natural colors and materials peeking out from both the outer perimeter and the interiors.

Signs of Italian inspiration are everywhere, from the resort’s overt ode to the ideal lifestyle of Italy, to the culinary experience in its restaurant “Il Segreto” where yet another Italian brand – furniture designer Pedrali – is showcased.

The simple, airy, and relaxing dining area opens onto a panoramic terrace and is enhanced by the subtle presence of comfortable Tribeca chairs by CMP Design (the stool version at the bar, the armchairs in the dining area) to go with the Inox tables.

All is in a delicate pastel pink that is a perfect match for the warm, dreamlike surroundings. By its nature, the Tribeca collection creates a soothing sense of familiarity, inspired by comforting echoes of the past, with its modern take on the classic 1960s patio chair made of steel with woven back and seat.
