The newly designed restaurant, Pitulka Eatery by Triopton Architects in Victoria Athens, adds a modern touch to the area with a sensibility to materials, culture and lifestyle. Defined as the “ancient pie”, the word Pitulka is one of the first reports to a Greek pie, approximately 7000 years ago.
The 200 sq.m. residence is located at Melissia, on a plot of land with a north-south mild slope. It is placed at the highest elevation of the plot, so there can be ample free space for a garden and the view to the majestic scenery can remain unobstructed. The large openings follow the linear volumes and amplify their elegance, starting a balanced dialogue between the architectural design and the scenery, while giving the end-user a feeling of freedom, unifying the interior with the exterior.
The residence is located in Ancient Korinthos. Taking into consideration the importance of the broader archaeological area, an excavation of 12×12 meters initially took place in the southern part of the site, determining the opening gestures of the project.

Invisibility is essentially a question of transparency.
In 1963 Colin Rowe in his article Transparency: Literal and Phenomenal set the framework: \”At the beginning of any inquiry into transparency, a basic distinction must perhaps be established. Transparency may be an inherent quality of substance- as in a wire mesh or glass curtain wall, or it may be an inherent quality of organization\”. As an organization quality \”transparency means a simultaneous perception of different spatial locations\”.
The complex occupies a whole city block (8.350m2) and consists of seven functionally autonomous but formally continuous buildings. It is situated in Maroussi, an Athenian suburb rapidly transforming into a business and residential metropolitan hub. The three storey volume unfolds over a slightly sloping site totaling an area of 6.500m2, and comprises of 70 apartments, communal spaces and underground parking lots.
The project is a private residence for two families in Varkiza, an athenian suburb in southern Attica, by the sea. It is a three-story building positioned at the rear of a 440 sq.m. plot.

The brief we were given called for an exclusive Japanese restaurant and bar in the northern suburbs of Athens. Within the extensive, open-plan space we needed to combine a sushi bar, a cocktail bar and seated dining areas with chic, polished design that would take diners seamlessly from intimate evening dining to more upbeat, late-night socialising.
JewelBOX is a multi use building in Kifisia, Athens, Greece designed by architects Panos Nikolaidis & Errica Protestou.
The jewelBOX accommodates two contradictory concepts. A monolithic mask, the building’s exterior versus a fluid interior. The mask reveals the ground floor volume through an ornamental iron gate. A black rectangular column redirects the visitor towards its two sections.
