Social CenterImmigrants’ and refugees’ support unit system.

Social CenterImmigrants’and

system.

The proposal aims to provide direct support to immigrants and refugees through a unit system that will accom-modate relevent functions (feeding, housing, health and legal services). The creation of a shared, semi-public space, designed to function as the core of everyday life of the users, is also consid-ered necessary. These functions should be dispersed in city neighborhoods wherever it is needed. An emphasis is also given on the standardization, the temporality and the adaptability of the proposal so that it can easily be imple-mented in different areas. For this purpose, containers are used as the basic spatial and structural system’s subunit. So after some structural inter-ventions (f.e. removing side panels), the containers are used by being joined together and compose some specific types of spatial units. The area of Metax-ourghio is chosen as an area to test our proposal and it is there that some plots of lands that can accommodate func-tions of the system are selected. The basic principles of the system’s adapta-tion in a plot area are: a) the use of the plot’s defining wall by the development of a linear "wing" which follows the dominant direction of the plot. b) the establishment of a basic shared open space ("the level") and other semi-public or more introverted spaces. Finally, the adaptation of the system in different kinds of plots is further investigated through some examples.

Technical DrawingConcrete and steel details

Technical Drawing

Concrete and steel today are probably the most widely used construction materials in the world. Here is a sample of constructional details of buildings. Examining the structural system, the exterior surface and the interior space. Development of the bear struc-ture, the lower floor, exterior walls, floors and roofing. Analysis of con-struction elements. Concrete and steel constructions, coatings, indoor and outdoor staircases and ramps, frames shaping and details.

Villa BordeauxRem Koolhaasconstruction and analysis

Bordeaux Vi lla

Making the Villa’s Bordeaux model and analyzing architect’s compositional principles, helped me to interrogate the means of expression which Koolhaas-used in this project. Starting from the broader question of reviewing and interpreting the architecture which surrounds us in our cities and also in books and journals, I tried to understand the way architects use various means of expression, to get on to the practices they adopt to adjust forms and materials to the compositional principles and concepts they have in mind.

Through this analytical exercise I was able to reconsider the meaning of ‘beauty’ in architecture, to discuss scale and symmetry, balance and rhythm, regulating lines and golden sections.

We shall reflect on architecture as a language and a mean of communica-tion. We shall also explore the relation between architecture and the genius loci. We shall try to focus on the materi-als, to touch them and feel their smell; to investigate the crossroads of light and shadow, and the association of colors. We shall talk on composition in terms of strategy and syntax. In fact, we must concentrate on the wide range of options which go beyond the structural necessity and the simple functional service in order to provide architectural forms with the quality that seems to evoke an aesthetic, although in explica-ble, yet deep satisfaction.

TransformationsWorkshop aboutair/sound/light + architecture

Transformations

In this seven-day computation-al workshop, design teams will experience a diverse range of

digital fabrication systems from CNC routers to 3D printers.

The workshop aims to bring out the dynamic qualities of the seemingly inanimate urban surroundings, such as urban paths, sense of orientation,

topography, and bridge these with the animate qualities of the human body. During this

process, I had the opportunity to experience the historical,

contemporary, and geograph-ical diversity of Athens during studio trips, while challenging

the conventional design approach in order to break

the dichotomy between the building and the urban realm.

Capable of responding to external stimuli, the proposed

structure applied the concepts of motion and real-time reac-

tion to various parameters, such as wind, sun or sound.

Change of north-east facade view Change of north-east facade view

A new plot of land created from the join of two smaller ones, gave

the oportunity to treat the previ-ous “blind” north-east facade of the existing indystrial building as

one new facade. Large openings in the north-east

facade, allows the easy transpor-tation of the products and man-

ages to provide sufficient lighting into the interior of the building.

Plenty survies of architectural sheells into 2D design. Experience of interior design-ing of several types of build-ings: houses for different types and numbers of users, small shops, protected- listed- traditional buildings.

Under-standing the relation between parts and whole. Volume and void in the urban tissue, blocks, public and private space, streets and communi-cation axes, urban green spaces.

Renovation of a small studioRenovation studiosmall a ofIn one of the most densely populated neighbor-hoods of Athens, a young couple called us for the renova-tion of their apartment. Intervening mainly in the interior of the 41 m2 studio, and second-arily on the facade of the ground floor. Our architec-tural actions have to do with the con-struction of a small loft and a metallic ladder, which acts as a regulator for the other spaces: the living room, the office and the kitchen are formed around the metal struc-ture.

Participation at the “p_public 2O14” festival, under the auspices of the Architects Associa-tion of Chania.

This project took place in an open public space, encouraging the user’s active partic-ipation. Also, this installation tried to define and to design methods of active public spaces, in order to exchange ideas and to structure the public space of "us".

The purpose of the model was to

create a suitable space for an unreal

animal. The “house” was based

in forms and structures that can

be met in nature, but under a

substructing approach and in

an artistic opera-tion.

The project was exposed in NTUA’s
