[second sister] 👭👩🏻

In the heart of Kypseli, Second Sister explores the dialogue between memory and renewal.

Εvery detail was designed to strengthen the dialogue between old and new. Original parquet floors were meticulously restored, preserving the warmth and craftsmanship of the apartment's past. Existing vintage furniture was carefully selected and integrated into the new composition, allowing every object to retain its story while finding a renewed purpose.

A restrained material palette of natural oak, painted timber, brass, marble, and textured fabrics creates a quiet background where heritage elements can stand out. Custom kitchen cabinetry, contemporary lighting, handcrafted details, and carefully restored decorative doors coexist without competing, creating an interior that feels both timeless and unmistakably contemporary.

Color plays a central role in shaping the atmosphere. Deep forest green, terracotta, and ochre define individual rooms while establishing a continuous narrative throughout the apartment. Rather than separating spaces, each color frames a different chapter of the same story.

For us, details are never decorative additions—they are the language through which architecture expresses care, memory, and permanence. They transform renovation from a technical exercise into an act of preservation, allowing a home to evolve without losing its identity.

[second sister] 👭🏻👩🏻

In the heart of Kypseli, second sister is our second project that explores the dialogue between memory and renewal.

Rather than erasing the apartment's history, the project embraces it. Original herringbone oak floors, decorative doors, vintage furniture pieces, and inherited objects were carefully restored and reintroduced into a new architectural framework. The intervention focused on creating clarity, functionality, and contemporary comfort while preserving the atmosphere that had accumulated over decades of everyday life.

A rich palette of deep greens, terracotta reds, warm timber tones, and soft whites establishes a sequence of distinct yet interconnected rooms. Each space carries its own character, while the apartment unfolds as a continuous narrative through framed views, aligned openings, and carefully composed perspectives. Existing furniture and artworks become protagonists within the new design, allowing the interior to feel both familiar and transformed.

The project reflects our belief that renovation is not about replacing the past, but about giving it a new role. Through subtle interventions, restored details, and contemporary additions, Second Sister becomes an apartment where different generations coexist, where memory remains visible, yet everyday life belongs entirely to the present.

A home shaped by silence, light, and horizon. Set gently within the landscape, this residence balances clean geometric lines with raw, tactile materials. Stone walls rise from the earth, grounding the structure, while expansive openings dissolve the boundary between inside and out. The living spaces unfold around a calm, open core, where light moves freely throughout the day, creating a constant dialogue between architecture and nature.

The layout is designed for both privacy and connection—intimate rooms are carefully tucked away, while the main living area extends outward to shaded terraces and outdoor seating. Here, everyday life flows seamlessly into the surrounding environment, framed by soft vegetation and distant views. Subtle details, natural textures, and a restrained palette enhance the sense of calm.

This is not just a house, but a quiet retreat—an architectural gesture that embraces simplicity, atmosphere, and the beauty of living slowly within the landscape.

[chilling timelessly] 🌶️🕰️ - Chilling timelessly reflects our approach to architectural intervention when working with a timeless Athenian apartment - a space shaped by its era, proportions, and urban context.

The owners of this second-hand apartmentay to engage in one of our most meaningful ways of working: carefully unraveling the existing structure and reinterpreting it through a contemporary architectural lens. Rather than imposing a new identity, the design process focused on understanding the apartment’s original character and enhancing it with subtle, deliberate interventions.

​Working within the constraints of the building itself, we chose to highlight the architectural era of the apartment, typical of an Athenian block of flats, while introducing modern - day comfort, improved functionality, and refined material choices. The result is a balanced dialogue between past and present - where original spatial qualities coexist with contemporary living standards.

​This project is an example of how apartment renovation in Athens can respect architectural heritage while responding to today’s needs, proving that timeless design is not about nostalgia, but about continuity and thoughtful evolution.

[The whisperers of the quiet strip] 😚😙😗 the air creature

Rising above the abandoned airstrip, the Air Creature functions as an elevated birdwatching tower and wildlife observation platform within the Icelandic wetland landscape.

The structure is conceived as a simple vertical lookout that allows visitors to experience the environment directly — exposed to wind, light, and the sounds of the lagoon. Rather than isolating people from nature, the tower intensifies the connection between architecture, landscape, and wildlife observation.

At the top, a perforated metallic enclosure acts as an acoustic device that captures and amplifies the calls of migratory birds. The tower becomes both a birdwatching observation tower and a listening instrument for the surrounding ecosystem.

Clad in charred black timber with warm red interiors, the structure frames panoramic views of the lagoon while creating a quiet space for environmental awareness and birdwatching.

Here, architecture becomes a minimal intervention — a platform to observe the Icelandic landscape, migratory birds, and the fragile wetland ecosystem.

The Whisperers of the Quiet Strip

The wonderful team: ,

Participation in the YAC – Young Architects Competitions | Abandoned Airport international competition with our proposal - “The Whisperers of the Quiet Strip.”

Set in Djúpivogur, Iceland, the project reimagines the abandoned airstrip not as leftover infrastructure - but as a living threshold between land, water, and sky.

Three architectural presences inhabit the lagoon:
– The Water Creature
– The Air Creature
– The Ground Creature

Not objects. Not monuments. But quiet vessels of observation. Constructed from marine-grade concrete and charred black timber, with warm red interiors carved to host families and professionals alike, the structures create immersive spaces for birdwatching, environmental awareness, and collective experience.

Very happy to be part of the project 😎😎

Τοποθετημένη μέσα στο ακατέργαστο και αναβαθμιδωτό έδαφος της Σίφνου, αυτή η κατοικία αναδύεται ως μια ήσυχη συνέχεια του τοπίου του νησιού και όχι ως μια επιβολή ....

[carved into] 🛠️🗿

This tiny home project explores how contemporary architecture can remain silent and powerful at the same time. Gently placed on the hillside above Faros, Sifnos, the house follows the natural terrain and existing stone formations, becoming part of the Cycladic landscape rather than an object imposed on it. The intention was not to dominate the site, but to allow the building to settle naturally into its context, responding to scale, climate, and topography.

The architectural design was led by Flora Koraki , in collaboration with Thodoris Tousas and his practice.

Overall development and ex*****on of the project (project management) were undertaken by Space Dreams, ensuring that architecture, construction, and site conditions worked together as a unified system.
