Oil Press In Kamares, Aigio
An oil press company located in Kamares, near Aigio in northern Peloponnese required an addition to their existing building to house their offices and an area to promote and exhibit their products.
The design of the addition expanded on the existing building’s architecture for consistancy with the new building. The two buildings were connected with a metal roof structure. Stone was proposed for the exterior along the walls of the ground level exhibition area.
The interior design attempted a balance between tradition and modern design aesthetic. The cement screed floor is complemented by the wooden ceiling and visible metal beams and the wooden furniture with dark non wooden parts. The walls are white making the whole interior colour palette consist of black, grey, white and the colour of wood.

This project refers to the design of a ground floor private residence with surrounding fencing, in the farm area of Epanomi (municipality of Thermaikos) which has a total area of 11557.50 sq.m. The ground floor house has been designed and developed based on the topographical details of the area . The building has visual engravings on the southwest, its entrance is located on the northeast and evolves around a outdoor living room. More specifically, the exterior seating area consists of a semi-outdoor area with a pergola, which includes the entrance to the house.
The main living spaces are located in the northwest part of the property. There is the kitchen with the dining room and the living room, as well as two bedrooms and a laundry space. To the southeast there are three guest bedrooms, one with a private bathroom and two with a shared one.
The external staircase located on the main patio leads to an outdoor seating area, which is designed on the roof, with a pergola. On the exterior space of the building one more pergola creates a shading system that serves the outdoor parking space. The outdoor space also hosts a hot tub, in connection to the master bedroom.
The central and connecting element of the composition is the atrium, from which there is access to the all the interior spaces. The design offers privacy where it is needed with large openings to the surrounding view.
