Ktima Naxos aims to deliver a truly unique accommodation experience that sets it apart, offering an array of unparalleled and unforgettable moments exclusively found within its embrace.
Hotel Typology
The first stage of our Services, which includes the Research & the Typology Study, helped the Hotel Owners take their final decisions regarding the hotel's Typology (type of property, room types, grounds, etc) and its main Features and Facilities, aiming to increase the hotel's ADR as well as its sales potentials from its various departments and services.
Hotel Experiences
During the Hotel Concept Development process, we specified the main idea and the narrative of the new hotel, which will allow it to stand out from the competition. At the same time, we specified all the new hotel's experiences, services, and operation model, in order to help the architectural and design teams to capture all the requirements for its final design.
Hotel Branding & Implementation
In order to have a fuller image of the Concept, we have created an initial branding for the new hotel that captures its feel and essence, and which must be taken into account during the design process. At the same time, we presented a series of indicative applications and implementations of the branding, in order to convey in a more tangible way the feeling that will be exuded during the hotel's visual communication.
Name Description
Our suggestion for the hotel’s brand name reflects the general experience and facilities that guests can find in a vineyard on an estate. The word “Ktima” is purely Greek and refers to the experience we would like to create for the hotel customers, while at the same time, it familiarizes foreign guests with the Greek word for “estate.” It is also important that the destination is part of the brand name, as this way, visitors become aware of the hotel’s exact location.
Logo Description
The Ktima Naxos logo is inspired by the hotel's layout. Specifically, the logo design represents the structure of the building, with the two-story houses forming an arch on the outer wall of the lower level. In addition, the split in the original shape depicts that the hotel spans two estates. The colors are drawn from the rocky Cycladic landscape of Naxos.
Hotel Design
For the completion of the project, Destsetters collaborates with esteemed Architectural and Design teams, in the context of the thorough application of the concept to the overall experience, the correct specification of the anticipated operational needs, and the new hotel's commercial potentials. The Architectural & Design teams are selected by the investors/project owners and play an active part in the overall decisions regarding the development of the new property.
