With open horizons: A special house in Athens that balances …
A building designed in elliptical led to a beautiful form and at the same time demanding architecture. The space describes the people it houses, which is why the interior designers worked on transforming the large, open space into a familiar and warm environment. The result is a quiet home that is not afraid to experiment and exceed the norms in decoration, while at the same time remaining disciplined and dynamic.
On the ground floor, the dining room, the living room, the TV room and the kitchen are lined up lengthwise, one after the other. Once the visitor crosses the threshold, he is in the living room and sees the metal sculpture frame created especially for the space, intending to alternate the modern with the classic throughout the house. The curvature of the walls and the abundant natural light that enters through the huge windows and reflects on the glass constructions – like the internal staircase – are defining elements of the scenery.
The living room is double, in semicircular form. The dark “Moon System” sofa designed by Zaha Hadid for B&B Italia marries with round coffee tables in a complementary relationship. The super modern sofa system is combined with more classic armchairs so that the house suits every psychosynthesis.
The bespoke library adds depth to the space, while the warm gray walls with spectacular lighting and hidden lighting ensure a subtle change of atmosphere as night falls. The cozy dining area was furnished with two dining rooms, ideal for small or large gatherings, and was completed with a wonderful lamp.
The house is largely inspired by the works of art that make up the personal collection of its occupants. Apart from the obvious works that adorn the space, the layout itself is mainly artistic, rather than architectural. There is no lack of sophisticated elements of eccentricity, such as the “Pig” table designed by the Front for the Moooi house and the visual and semantic comparison of the works.
The logic of contrasts also characterizes the lower level of the house, which houses the games room and the private gym, but also the familiar spaces of the floor.
