Multidimensional texture

A ground-floor restaurant in the historic center of Thessaloniki is repurposed into a short-term rental residence.

Design Philosophy

The primary goal was to maximize the space’s attractiveness and functionality to appeal to the widest possible range of potential users. The design features a versatile, open-plan layout, ideal for hosting parties and other events. The main focus was the design of the residence’s facade, with particular emphasis on maintaining privacy while ensuring the natural flow of light and air. This was achieved through the use of glass bricks and metal electric frames.

Interior Layout

In the bedroom area, sliding metal partitions with glass were employed to define the individual spaces, allowing natural light to penetrate while maintaining flexibility. These materials enable the creation of an adaptable environment that meets users’ needs without compromising brightness or connectivity. Additionally, the use of curtains allows for shading when desired and creates a sense of warmth and intimacy, giving users control over lighting and privacy.

Material Palette

The combination of different materials brought a strong personality and playful character to the space. Elements such as marble, unique textures, and metal details were blended with transparent materials like glass bricks, offering multi-dimensional textures and vibrant colors. The result is a dynamic and original space that provides visitors with a unique aesthetic experience and distinctive atmosphere.
