February 2017
The Galini Breeze project was delivered to its owners and they are ready to welcome their guests!
Here is what Marc & Monique, the owners say for this cooperation “”Back in 2015, we selected Action Constructing as our partner for the conception of our long-dreamed small-scale holiday resort and private villa, after a pitch we organized between 4 competitive companies. The core team of Manolis, George, Lilly definitely won this pitch because they really understood our briefing, and delivered an astonishing architectural concept for the 4 studios that both touched our emotional as our business requirements. They combine a can-do mentality with a sound understanding of our western-European building standards and preferences in details of materials and applications. During the building process we appreciated the frequent communication, and of course the strive for quality of Manolis and his team, to guarantee a valuable result for their customers. Delivered early 2017 – in time! – , we are happy living here and running Galini Breeze successfully now. As this is greatly due to the fruitful cooperation with Action Constructing, we highly recommend them for likewise projects!” See more from Galini Breeze at https://galinibreeze.com/
March 2017
In March the architectural team of Action designed the unique and luxury project of villa Belvedere. The project is designed for a plot in South Crete with amazing view. Belvedere in Italian means the balcony, and/or the summer house with the unique view (bello – vedere). We chose this name for the project the first time we visited it, to walk it through and survey it. It was like a balcony there. What a unique plot we thought. Really, not only a challenge, but an opportunity, too. A challenge for the Construction and an opportunity for Architecture and design.
April 2017
In April 2017, the vision of villa Lily in Xirosterni found its owners. This 2-storey stone villa was designed by our team for a plot in Xirosterni, Apokoronas, in the middle of Cretan Nature and with great views to Souda Bay. A warm and kind family from Belgium loved this project and after a few meetings the contract was signed and we started preparing for developing this traditional stone villa.

Few days after signing the contract for villa Lily, in May, the commencement of a new project in Xirosterni village in Chania took place.

The smart technology, which will be installed, involves the control and automation of lighting, heating , air conditioning (HVAC), and security, as well as home appliances such as washer/dryers, ovens or refrigerators/freezers.
