Located on the top floor of a 1975 apartment building, in close proximity to Pedion tou Areos, this 77 m² apartment was transformed into a contemporary urban retreat that redefines the relationship between living, natural light, and the Athenian landscape.

The architectural intervention involved a complete renovation and reconfiguration of the existing layout, together with a redesign of the building envelope through new openings that enhance natural light and strengthen the connection between the interior and exterior spaces. The generous terrace, offering unobstructed views across the Athens basin, became a central point of reference for the design, transforming the city skyline into an integral part of everyday life.

The architectural approach was based on creating a calm and timeless backdrop against which textures, materials, and natural light could emerge. White surfaces and continuous epoxy flooring in soft grey-beige tones form a neutral canvas, reinforcing a sense of continuity and spatial fluidity. Within this framework, custom-built elements and integrated furniture discreetly yet decisively organize the apartment, combining functionality, storage, and spatial definition.

The colour palette draws inspiration from nature, with selected shades of green introducing character and depth to the living spaces, while natural materials and earthy textures bring warmth and a sense of intimacy. The changing light throughout the day reveals different qualities within the materials and surfaces, giving the interior an atmosphere that continuously evolves.

In the bathroom, a newly introduced skylight allows daylight to penetrate deep into the space, highlighting the simplicity of the material palette and transforming an everyday function into an almost ritualistic experience.
