The project is about the architectural design of a residence with a working space in Nea Ionia. The house is divided in three levels. The main entrance is on the second level, where the living spaces are located, i.e. the double height living-room, the dinning room and the kitchen. The home office is also placed here, directly connected to the rest of the house, but still having a separate entrance to ensure the professional privacy needed. The master bedroom is on the level above, with a linear corridor overlooking the living-room below, ending up to the terrace. The rest of the bedrooms are located to the ground-floor level, having their own independent small living space. The ground-floor opens up to the southern part of the lot with the pool, and to the smaller, private, enclosed northern courtyard. The large openings and the façade geometry, have a direct reference to the modern movement’s architecture. The ground floor facades, are coated with white plaster and act as a base for the main volume of the house which is a cube of exposed concrete.
