The architects, studio Petokraka, in close relationship with the client, developed custom-designed structures and objects, from staircases, partitions, and cabinetry to lighting and furniture pieces.
The interior architecture project spanned for more than five years. The design was developed in parallel to the building construction and included the work on the ever-evolving layout adaptation alongside the diligent development of details synchronously with the on-site progress.
The spatial programme consists of a living room with an elevated open study area and a kitchen with dining on the groundfloor, a multifunctional space with workshop and a guest room in the semi-basement, and bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms on the first floor.
