CONTEMPORARY HAUSSMANNIAN APARTMENT

Client: Private

Location: Thessaloniki, GreeceStatus: Concept Design
Lead architect: Aspasia Taka
Design team: Maria Avramidou

In an imposing building of the historic center of Thessaloniki the fully renovated apartment 170sqm is located. The idea of preserving and enhancing the historicity of the space prevails in the design. A modern environment is developed with a timeless character that refers to the past and French design. Plaster and wood paneling create the environment where modern lighting and design objects are placed. The choice of wooden floor dominates the space and defines the circulation. Its alternation with tiles defines the wet spaces and the change of use. A vestibule separates the movements, while around it the movement is allowed throughout the apartment, with hidden passages. The apartment consists of the open plan living room and kitchen with flexibility. The private spaces of the apartment are developed behind the common areas and have the necessary privacy.
