HOUSE In Klisohori Edessa GREECE

The project concerns the design of a private residence for a four-member family in Klisohori, a suburb about 2km from the center of the city of Edessa, on the northwestern region of Greece. Klisohori is located in a mountainous region, so the land on that area is steep. The plot’s slope is more than 30% offering spectacular views to the mountains’ waterfalls and the city of Edessa. During the design process we decided to base the house on the highest level, so that it could offer the best views to the city.The approaching road is on the highest spot of the plot. Τhe house is designed in three levels but only the highest one is visible from the road. The living room and the kitchen are on the third floor. The view is unobstructed from every corner of this floor. There is also a car lift which leads the cars to the parking area which is on the first level. A guest room and some store rooms are located next to the parking area. The bedrooms are on the middle level and they have access to the garden. We are planning to use materials like concrete, glass and stone from the plot. Our intention is to reuse materials from the area, so that the building could continue the history of this place.
