Calm oasis
The 58m2 apartment is part of a well-known and award-winning residential complex in the area of Metaxourgeio.
Design Philosophy
Given the area’s bustling environment, the design adopts the concept of a “calm island,” shaping the complex as a tranquil retreat. The interiors are designed to offer both emotional and physical security, while the open-plan layout creates striking visual connections to the inner courtyard, enhancing the contrast between the vibrant city and the serene artificial “oasis”. As a result, this architectural approach reinforces the timelessness and purity that define the complex.
Functional Components
The kitchen becomes the apartment’s focal point, intended to transform cooking into a social experience rather than a solitary task for its future users. A series of wooden cabinets provide essential storage, while a central island serves as the room’s centerpiece.
Materials & Color Palette
The design features minimal shapes and geometries, complemented by vibrant colors and natural materials with rich textures, including exposed concrete, marine plywood, metal, and mosaic tiles. Walls are painted in bright colors, while construction details such as geometric recesses that serve as handles are highlighted with orange tones.
