Greek Apartment, Great Ideas
2010
This apartment located in Thessaloniki, Greece,was designed by .27 Architects to meet the owners’ specific needs. The furniture, walls, floors and ceilings often perform double duties here. For example, the wall and ceiling around the bed satisfies the owners’ desire for a four-poster bed while at the same time providing more storage space. The wood floor is placed 40 cm on top of the original marble floor to provide room for storage, lighting, etc underneath. I love the book storage solution – who ever thought of storing books in the floor!
As with many recently completed architectural projects, I think it needs a bit more warmth, but that’s probably because it hasn’t been lived in yet. Overall this space is very thought-provoking.
