The Galazia Akti Resort sits in a vast area of 30.000m2 including 600m2 structure right on the beach that serves as a restaurant, lounge area. Additional facilities were included such as a beach bar, playground, changing rooms, ... . The first issue the architects was choosing materials that would endure the weather conditions and deciding what kind of structure would be appropriate in a beach environment without altering the scenery. The initial research of the architects focused
in finding a structural element that would characterize and unify the intervention. A lightweight structure made of natural materials that would change and adjust in order to fulfill different purposes.

The “Notos Com” company decided to rennovate end extend the office department building in Athens.The first building was built in 1998 and was composed by three floors and divided in two parts, a small for offices and a big part for storage functions.
The aim of the project was to bring all the employers of Notos Com company in the same building transforming it in a real headquarters.The new building uses all the existing building for offices and juxtapose a volume with director offices and the main entrance of the building. In
addiction all the surrounding space are renovated with parking and green areas.
The new addition was made by a metal structure and coverd by marble tiles instead the old building was kept in concrete and plaster as it was, just changing the openings in a way to give a modern ritme to the facade.

The three level building, property of Jewish Community of Thessaloniki, initially accomodated offices on the floors and commercial shop on the groundfloor and underground levels.In 1947-1953 a two floor addition and a new facade where built in Tsimiski Str., with a new groundfloor with the “Hirsch Gallery” passing trough the building between Tsimiski and Mitropoleos Str.The proposal was based on two principles: to preserve the historical and the aesthetic continuity of Tsimiski Str. by using modern methods and materials, without destroying the “personality” of the existing building. For that reason a transparent and discreet surface was constructed, which works as a background, in order to bring forth the existing building. At the same time and in order to separate the new intervention from the preserved building a smooth and transparent surface is created, one step backwards compared to the metal grid, which cover the double storey new addition.
The design solution, the metallic surface, chosen for Tsimiski Stret facade also runs across the building. This element operates as a canvas on one side and as a key element on the other side that determines the facade and respect the adjacent historical building housing Electra Palace Hotel. The chosen element is a metal mesh and the outer
wall of the addition, ambient lighting is installed, to give transparency and lightness to the floors added.
The facade on Mitropoleos Str., has a slight inclination in order to give the whole building the space to “breath”.Notos Galleries department Stores in partnership with Public stores financed the project and a new department store “Notos Galleries” and a “Public” store opened in September 2010.The idea of the gallery also operates vertically, makind the department store commercial floors visible and directly accessible to the passer by. A central atrium which hat escalators and elevators connecting all levels is created in the middle of Hirsch arcade. New uses and restaurant and cafes were added on the mezzanine floor, in order to help the building become once again a meeting point for the people of the city. The visual contact and the functional connection with all the levels, with the gallery, and the added uses, gives a richer experience to the old concept of Hirsch Gallery.

The project area lies in the heart of the historical center of Naples, in a strategic area for the presence of historical memory and the flow of tourists, cultural and business taking place inside. A place so important to the area in question makes a key point to solve the complex maze of the city of Naples.Leveraging on what are the real potential already present in the area, the project aims to reactivate this part of the city now degraded, but that already contains in itself all the elements for its rebirth. Everything is already there. To these existing systems will be added to the project, linked to the campus that is already a reality in the historical center of Naples through the creation of student residences with their services.The presence of students and the provision of new services linked to it, wants to become the engine for the reactivation of this specific part of the city involving the entire block with a view to upgrading overall, a sort of social housing that will also affect residents and will offer new services to the entire city.In order to activate this revitalization is necessary to act on the reconnection of the various systems in the area and currently not interconnected among themselves. A reconnection which aims to bring a reactivation of the ground floor that will involve the entire block, creating an internal practicability of the same, crossing over transversely at the input of the future forum of cultures, with the reopening of an old way of passage at the Courts of the church of Santa Maria della Sanità .The creation of this step is crucial for the realization of an important stopping place becoming the heart of the reactivation of the ground floors of all Vico
Maffei which in time will present itself as a sort of elongated square along which you will trigger a whole range of business functions and crafts.The strategy of reactivation of the groundfloor will go hand in hand with the redevelopment of the nearby ruins and building replacement that will provide the critical mass of the project, the more massive volume in which they’re going to put most of the functions related to the student residence, creating the main link with the second level of the project, that will take place on the roof.The project will act therefore basically on two levels : the ground floors and roofs, by introducing new volumes of the latter, in order to ensure a continuous practicability of the same. The volumes of the project will occupy the interstitial spaces and the entire block will contain not only new homes but also a further set of functions to service not only the student but the entire block in such a way as to ensure the activation of the distances of the project.The design of the facade thus obtained is placed in a neutral manner with respect to the rhythmic beat of the windows of the buildings twentieth century , relating directly with the tightness of the tufa walls of the ruins found on vico Maffei. The facade can be sealed and on it does not recognize ritmature other than those imposed by the scanning of the wooden panels , or completely open, and even in this configuration does not present ritmature other than those imposed by ceiling fixtures . The most probable configuration will be the one in which the random opening and closing of the wooden panels will create a shadow play both inside and outside without any specific plan .

The renovation starts from the concept that the core of the house without direct illumination should host, in a gray “box”, the service functions such as bathrooms, laundry and technical machines and all around in direct contact with the external facade, so to have direct illumination, all the rooms.The main rooms in the front having the view of the sea and in the back the bedrooms.

Museum of Underwater Antiquities
The grain storage station, which is located within the area of the Cultural Zone - Cultural Coast of Letioneia coast of Piraeus Port Authority, will house the Museum of Underwater Antiquities, which will host the history of Greek shipping and the eternal relationship of the Greek people to the sea. The museum is situated inside an industrial building which functioned as a grain storage station from 1936 to 2009. The supply process and operation of the silo station inspires and sets the ground for the organization, function and programming of the Museum of Underwater Antiquities.
The grain storage station and disposal turns into a building for hosting, conservation and exhibition of archaeological findings. Thus the natural food storage, turns into a source of culture, history and knowledge. The core element in the design of the building is the exhibition of Underwater Antiquities, deployed inside the very heart of the building, in the area of storage cellswhile the rest of the building’s functions “hover” around
that. The building’s volumeremains as introvert as it was,sustaining though a narrative approach around the main exhibit, which happens to be a model of the hull of an ancient Greek trireme (Olympus).
The open public space surrounding the building is equally crucial to the completion of the design proposal for the museum. The programming of the functions, hosted throughout the open space, that form the functional structure is based on 3 key elements. The first one, that is the basic tool for organizing public space, is flora. The second one is the memory that perforates historically the site. Finally the third elementis the provision for cycling, which is the main function sited that consolidates and delivers the coastal Ietioneias coastal front to the city of Drapetsona.

The main goal of the project is to achieve the reorganization of the surrounding spaces without modifying but enhancing it by giving back to the city centre a value that the old municipal building had removed obscuring the view of the lake.
It also seeks to restore the ideal contact that there was in the past between the government of the community and the community itself, giving visibility to what is happening in the town hall
proposing a typology based on morphological and spatial patterns of the places of the politics of Greek and Roman culture.

Eleftheria Square is placed in the edge of the historical center of Thessaloniki, close to one of the most vivid living areas facing the Thermaikos gulf.The design of the Square constitutes an experiential urban place with a highlighted identity both in the day and nighttime, in which the visitor comes up with different experiences and scenarios from time to time. The architectural design juxtaposes the strict monumental with the free organic, the artificial with the natural, the hard with the soft and the clumping with the liquid.The square is being designed as a huge ‘vessels’ that gathers the whole life of the city. Bounded, under the shade of trees, arranged linearly elongated living free form benches which offer an unobstructed view of the front of the city, the sea, the sky and the square itself.The square gradually degraded from the perimetric roads and the whole creates a tendency of introversion and isolation from the surrounding environment while leading passers in the “clearing” inside. At the same time, the downgrade compared to the Nikis Avenue allows direct contact with the sea passing under the bridge.The square ‘vessels’ has a double role. Simultaneously, functions both as a population gathering and as a natural rainwater collector. This precious water is stored, filtered and then attributed back to the visitors for unique esthetic experiences and for watering the greenery. The square has the ability to store as much water
as needed to flood the square till sea level and form this way the natural continuation of the sea that seems to invade the square, inviting viewers visitors to watch it as it fills and empty itself. It is worth noting that in 1870, that began the demolition of the seaside fortifications of the city in an effort to modernize the Ottoman Empire, the sea reached the middle of the square.In the center of the square to the bottom level (-2.20) is situated the Jewish Memorial as a reference to the Jewish community that in the mid-16th century was so important to make Thessaloniki be the Jewish center of East-Europe, where persecuted Jews from all over Europe came to live a normal life. On April 9th, 1941 when the first military convoy of Germans came to Thessaloniki began persecutions. All Jewish men aged 18 to 45 were ordered to appear in Liberty Square to be mobilized for forced labor. The day, from 6000 to 7000 of them gathered together under the hot sun until afternoon, surrounded by soldiers with automatic weapons. Within ten weeks 12% of those who were led there, had died. In an attempt to highlight the historicity of the square is implemented this space “monument”. Simultaneously, the monument was placed on the ideal link with the Jewish Museum across Rogoti street.

During my personal practice we have done also some furnitures and design products.A table, a chair anad a lamp, not precisely a set, but all of them able to fit together in a modern composition.
K1 chair was the first, composed by three boards that combined between them without the use of glue or screws stand in his beauty and have the possibility to be stored in a small space.The second was CORSET lamp. Inspired by the
corset, like a dress for the bulb, realized in ceramic and leather strings.The last, FASCIA table made of wood and steel in a minimal design, apparently simple but with the requirements of really good details.
