Apollonio Private Residence Renovation

This private residence unit forms part of the Apollonio residential settlement designed, starting in 1969, by renowned Greek modernist architect Constantinos Doxiadis. With a surface area of about 500 sq.m. on three floors, exterior courtyards and terraces and a private pool, it consists of one of the largest units of the settlement. The residence sits directly by the sea, south facing the eastern Attica coastline and provides compelling sea views.

This aesthetic and unswerving choice of materials informed the renovation of the interior spaces and exterior courtyards too: floors are fair-faced concrete or mortar cement, as are all bathroom surfaces, walls are all pristine white and the introduction of a variety of natural oak interior surfaces and built-in structures is intended to bring a sense of warmth to an otherwise crisp environment. The new layout only aims to provide larger private rooms on the first floor and open-space main indoor and outdoor living areas at ground floor, in order to magnify the impact of the views and the entering natural light or breeze throughout the house.
