ATHENS LAWYERS ASSOCIATION BUILDING, (3RD PRIZE)

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The project consists of a multi purpose building for the Athens Lawyers Association.

The organizing principles of the project derive from the building surfaces. From the public level of the street, a single material band organizes the whole structure, creating a surface of multiple directions where walls connect with floor, rotate and meet, producing a state of a perpetuate surface evolving vertically developing the required spaces, according to the building program, in a gesture connecting the building functions to the surrounding urban space.

The project aims at the development of an “intimate” balance between the scale of the city and that of the building.
