Private Residence In Oraiokastro, Greece
The site is located in Oraiokastro, part of Thessaloniki regional unit, Greece. The private residence consists of a basement with playroom, parking and storage areas and the ground floor with the main functions of the house. The architecture and geometry of the residence is simple. In relation to form, the basic design principle of the house is its organization morphologically and functionally into three rectangular volumes that are connected to each other. The one volume hosts the living areas, the other one the sleeping areas and the intermediate one provides the vertical movement between the levels.
The main color of the house is white while anthracite was chosen for details such as recesses / semi-outdoors and aluminum frames. The roof is covered with gravel and partially with low planting.

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.
