This is a top floor apartment (53m2) in the southern suburbs of Athens with interesting views to the West and of the coastal area of Faliron bay. The new layout re-arranged the sequence of spaces in the rectangular shape of the floor-plan. The everyday functional areas of the flat were positioned in front of the view, while the newly delineated bedroom was placed in an autonomous space at the other end of the flat, a feature absent in the previous layout.
The introduction of a continuous wooden panel throughout the apartment creates an interesting physical experience and delineates the unseen functional areas of the home. Part of the kitchen, the storage rooms, the bathroom, and the bedroom of the house are located within this wooden panel. The operation of the bathroom was divided into two parts. The shower is accessible only through the sleeping area and a WC is located on the corridor connecting the entrance with the everyday space of the dwelling.
The anarchic cityscape that becomes visible through the building’s openings contrasts with the calm lines of the interior.
