Freatida, 2024
The design reflects a pursuit of unity—spatial, material, and atmospheric. Each element, from the marble flooring to the walnut woodwork and fluted glass, contributes to a timeless and tactile composition. Inspired by the sandy hues and coastal light of Freatida, the palette bridges the natural and the crafted, creating an interior that feels both grounded and ethereal.
Earth-toned Sinai marble forms the base of the interior, its subtle texture echoing the surrounding beach landscape. High marble skirtings, bespoke wood elements, and soft off-white walls frame the spaces, while touches of green marble and dark metal add depth and contrast. With views toward the sea and abundant natural light, the residence celebrates both function and aesthetic sophistication.
Stisichorou, 2023
The design pays homage to the 1940s architectural heritage of K. Kitsikis while introducing subtle modern gestures. Through precision, craftsmanship, and restraint, the project becomes a quiet transformation—where memory, material, and modern function coexist in harmony.
Wood is the dominant material, shaping both space and movement. Natural oak flooring, crafted by skilled artisans, extends throughout the apartment, bordered by a discreet perimeter edging reminiscent of 1940s interiors. Custom furniture pieces in white tones, punctuated by black Bauhaus-inspired details, blend heritage and modernity. The lighting, fixtures, and switches reinterpret historical motifs in a contemporary aesthetic language.
The essence of the space unfolds through touch and light. Surfaces breathe with texture; fabrics soften edges; light reveals form and depth. Every material choice becomes part of a larger composition—one that invites calmness, intimacy, and a lasting sense of presence.
