Please take into account the particularity of the traditional Skyrian architecture The houses of Skyros are typical island houses with special layout and excellent space economy.
The Red Windows to Blue Sky is a large Skyrian house and this is evident from the distribution of space on the 2 floors of the house and its special features such as wall fitted wardrobes and showcases.
However, the architecture of the house follows the Skyrian architectural tradition . The spaces, although large for the data of the island's houses , do not cease to follow the economy scale of the interior spaces.
This means that visitors with quite large body shape may need to be careful in specific areas, such as bedroom II WC, or the wooden internal staircase.
We have posted plenty of photos to help you better understand the space.
We also have tried to keep the space in its original form, leaving the time to keep the marks of history on it.
