Georgaki St. Apartment

Set in one of the most central of Thessaloniki’s neighborhoods, the apartment occupies the second floor of the building with an area approx.  55 m². The strategic position of the apartment due to its urban context in articulation with domestic space issues prompted the project to focus in the following principles:

• Spatial and functional re-adaptation in order to make use of the maximum floor area and the natural daylight;
• Concentration of equipment and storage into functional walls and cores, in order to free up space;
• Unification and distinct limitation of the uses, especially in the living room area with the timber paneling system on the wall;

The custom made timber paneling systems wears a genius hidden mechanism which gives the impression that the doors are floating on the wall. Mutable in its usage conditions, it allows various interactions and different hierarchies between spaces.
