SINGLE FAMILY HOUSE

Located in the northern suburbs of Athens city center, this three-storey single house (with basement), designed for a family of five, reflects the lavish personalities of its owners by blending bold Art Deco elements with an overall sense of serenity. The house emits in its entirety a highly sophisticated aura which results from a thoroughly detailed design process in combination with a carefully curated selection of materials. The imposing double height entrance space combined with the black door edging and the Nero Marquina marble floor create a sense of grandiose, indicative of the overall feeling that the house radiates. The residence is organized around a prominent spiral staircase which spans from minus one level as a marble volume until the ground floor and continues up to second floor covered only in wood. All the interiors have oak flooring except for the bathrooms which are covered with various marble elements. Wood is used in various ways all over the house, e.g., as wall covering, imparting a sense of warmth and calmness. One of the standout design features is the meticulously crafted walk-in closet in the master bedroom with bespoke finishes and delicate accents. The house also includes a home-office area which is discreetly camouflaged within the master bedroom as a mirrored volume behind a partition wall. The ground floor encompasses the communal spaces of the house, including the kitchen, the dining area, a living room with a bronzed-lined bar and a second family living room with adjacent access to the exterior swimming pool area. The upper two floors comprise the bedrooms of the family, while the basement accommodates parking spaces, additional ancillary spaces and the gym.
