On The Rocks, Santorini: Living on the Edge of the Caldera

Perched high on the cliffs of Imerovigli, On The Rocks is swathed in soothing calmness and Santorini romance. Ideal for couples, the boutique hotel boasts uber chic interiors and wanderlust-worthy vistas over the dazzling Aegean Sea.

Fusing traditional Cycladic architecture with contemporary details, each room is a romantic whitewashed enclave of flawless design and high-end amenities. Partially carved into the ingenious rock, the suites hide magical touches like a private dip pool or an indoor Jacuzzi for two.

Among the hotel’s highlights are its splendid sunset views, which can be best admired from the exclusive pool bar whilst enjoying a lovely cocktail or a light alfresco meal.

My work is focused on the illustration field using drawing as the main resource to develop my projects. Currently, I am part of a traditional graphic arts collective and studio known as “Taller Trez” and I also work as a freelancer in the editorial world.

With my work, I represent the matters of life that amaze me. I intend to explain through images what I consider important and sometimes simple of this universe in which we live, dream and die, and without actually know it, my obsessions, emotions, and frustrations have become the engine to keep finding new tools and processes to communicate that view of the world.

You Can Swim to Your Room at this Mayan Inspired Design Hotel on Isla Holbox

A unique, eco-chic hotel on Mexico’s laidback Isla Holbox, Punta Caliza impresses with its stunning architecture, inspired by the Mayan structures across the Yucatan Peninsula.

It comprises a cluster of thatched-roof buildings made of red cedar and gleaming white limestone, wrapping around a triangular milky-emerald pool. Interiors are lofty and minimalistically outfitted to not distract attention from the magnificent structural design, and each wood-clad room has its own private plunge pool flowing into the main canal.
