As no cars are allowed here, visitors must either walk or take a donkey or a boat to get to the white pebble beaches and are encouraged by the island to reconnect with themselves and with nature. 
The origins of the collection
Hydra Collection on GlamFusion was designed in response to the innovation needs of interior spaces that focus on wellness: spaces that offer mental and physical wellbeing inspired by the classical notion of salus per aquam (i.e. health through water). The increasing demand for spas, indoor pools and wellbeing spaces in hotels and beauty sanctuaries underlines the important role of water and the benefits it brings. Even the bathrooms in our homes have been elevated from pleasurable salle d’eau to sophisticated private sanctuaries, where personal care is experienced as a daily ritual of indulging and pampering.

The Hydra Collection on GlamFusion is a stylish and functional addition to spaces that are in contact with water, resulting in sensorial experiences that achieve physical and mental equilibrium.
Patterns and colour palette
The collection comprises 21 wallcoverings that combine abstract geometric patterns, inspired by Hydra’s architecture and hidden corners, with plant designs that evoke the island’s native flora. The patterns recall the island’s irregular, winding streets with their terracotta-roof houses, shadows cast across their fronts, and the eye-catching boats anchored in its harbour. Oversize leaves and large dragon tree plants are combined with unusual herbs and wild flowers.

The colour palette encompasses the colours of the landscape, in a range of rich hues. Its cool natural tones include deep turquoises (like the Aegean sea that laps against the coast) and brilliant blues, which emerge from the steep rocky cliffs and splash waves of colour across the horizon.

The collection’s bright whites are inspired by the island’s houses, the greys by its cobbled back-streets, and the golden hues by its soft sands, while bold orange evokes fiery sunsets, and terracotta and beige hint at tiled roofs and dirt tracks. An infinite array of hues that invigorates and refreshes any space dedicated to the wellbeing of the body and the mind.
