This delightful white contemporary home is located in Ekali, an Athens suburb, and it was designed by the Greek architect Thanos Athanasopoulos. The residence it’s a single family house and comes with a few quite amazing features and a stylish design making it a true showcase of modern living.
The architecture of this home was developed in relationship with the environment and the large use of glass ensures great views of the beautiful surrounding landscape and also of the chic pool, while allowing natural light inside.
The building is covered by a pitched double curved roof which is glad with conventional ceramic roof tiles. The roof-tile cladding cascades down the surface of the north wall, creating a rainscreen that contributes to the environmental performance of the house and gives the impression of a seamless protective blanked. That’s original!
The architect wanted to create an appropriate architectural identity in a suburban context where traditional imagery and contemporary desires are fused and confused.
