architecture - design: …
…searching the expression of space through its characteristics, its details and balancing elements,
following the needs, the wishes and the personality of its user…
1. OUR PHILOSOPHY
The philosophy of our Architectural Design Office ‘‘GEORGOPOULOS-TSELIOU’’, is based on three principles,
function, aesthetics of the form and economy of the construction, principles that we try to combine and create a building cell that will serve the needs of each different user. Our primary consideration in the designing process is orientation and natural lighting of the building, a consideration which serves the three principles mentioned above maintaining the sustainability of space.
Basic aim and philosophy of our studio is through an integrated designing process, always in co-operation with the client and according to his needs, to support the project up to the construction phase and to finish it in the best aesthetically and technically way, so that it is corresponding to the contemporary designing needs and economy of the construction with eco-friendly materials and construction processes.
APARTMENT BUILDING, VOTANIKOS, ATHENS (2009) On the corner of a city block, in a central neighborhood of Athens, facing Acropolis, this six-storey apartment building has a strongly minimal character.
On this project attention was paid on modern facades with energy efficient windows and aluminum shades, white colors on the balconies in front of the gray-brown main body of the building
and an interesting skyline, with view of the Acropolis from the upper floor. It consists of eight levels, connecting with a staircase and a lift:
on the basement level we have parking and other ancillary storage spaces, on the ground floor level we have common areas (main entrance, staircase, lift), on the first floor we have two apartments, on the next three floors we have three apartments (one on each floor) and on the 5th and 6th floor we have a maisonnette.

PRIVATE RESIDENCE, KIFISSIA, ATTICA (2009) Situated on a flat land plot of a suburban area, this roofed house combines the owner’s influences from Austrian architecture with neoclassical morphology of the late18th century’s
Greek architecture.
Details -such as symmetrical organized facades, plaster frames around the windows and colors- are interacting with the environment of Attika’s northern suburbs.
It consists of two levels, connecting with a staircase:
on the basement level we have the garage and ancillary storage spaces and
on the ground floor level, we have the living room, the dinning room, the kitchen, a master bedroom with bathroom and wardrobe, one smaller bedroom, one more bathroom and a
laundry room.

HOUSING COMPLEX, GERAKAS, ATTICA (2007) On the corner of a city block, in a quiet neighborhood of an Athenian suburb,
this housing complex was conceived lying and outspreading its wings against the urban horizon. A variety of colors emphasize the sharp corners of the skyline and the heavy stone panels hold on the ground the mass of the building.
It consists of two maisonnettes (with basement floor, ground floor and 1st floor each one) and an apartment building (with basement floor, ground floor with two flats, 1st floor with two flats and 2nd floor with two flats too).

PRIVATE RESIDENCE, ADAMES, KIFISSIA, ATTICA (2004) Situated on a flat land plot of a suburban area, this house with a small swimming pool on the backyard has a stocky, heavy character, combing different forms on a minimal mass.
The light interior design (curved suspended ceilings, wavy fire place, spotlights, glass details on the lift) is balancing with the external austerity. It consists of three levels, connecting with a staircase and a lift:
on the basement level we have the garage and ancillary living and storage spaces, on the ground floor level, with the pool in the backyard, we have the living room, the dinning room, the kitchen and a wc
and on the upper floor we have a master bedroom with bathroom and wardrobe, two smaller bedrooms with their own bathrooms and a laundry room.

Two buildings of the same morphology trying to brake the monotony of the urban environment playing
with volumes, colors, shapes and symbols. The blue sky resists against the earthy colors on a playful
contrast.

VARIOUS APARTMENT BUILDINGS IN ATHENS (2000 - 2010) In a neutral urban environment among indifferent buildings in deprived urban areas these two apartment buildings follow the low cost neighboring constructions
trying to brake the monotony through façade’s elements such as shape of balkonies and colors.
SITE PLANNING FOR A HOUSING COMPLEX, PORTO HYDRA VILLAGE, ARGOLIDA, GREECE (2001) On a large coastal residential area, famously known for its private villas and holiday homes used for vacation throughout the year and built around a canal network,
the challenge was in maximizing the sea view for the properties on the backside of the village
and maintaining the users’ interest for the village and its traditional natural and built environment.

VACATION HOUSES IN HOUSING COMPLEX, PORTO HYDRA VILLAGE, ARGOLIDA, GREECE (2001) On a famous vacation area, developed by a real estate company, the challenge was to make everyone feel that he has a unique and tailor-made property,
keeping on the other hand the lower costs of a typical construction.
Thus, the flexibility of house typology was a priority in combination with the traditional forms and materials of the village’s architecture.

The Site
COFFEE & PASTRY SHOP, LOUTRAKI, GREECE (PROJECT, 2010) On an interesting site, an indifferent space seeks for a new idea to became livable again.
We wanted to create a pleasant space for leisure, serving families on their vacation time next to the sea.
The concept was to eliminate the presence of the building’s structural elements by transforming them to natural elements, such as tree trunks and foliage.
Extended surfaces of glazed panels and new wavy forms with sand and plantation serve this purpose too.
The Old Structure
“THE SAND WAVE PROJECT” (MULTI-FUNCTIONAL COMPLEX), DOHA, QATAR (PROJECT, 2009) In a highly competitive market, a concept about a mega-project linked to the sea.
Its consists of a shipyard and an exhibition centre for mega yachts, a marine mall, a hotel, a marina and a water park.
The large scale of the project on a natural salty and sandy environment led to the idea of a wavy structure following the coast line on one hand and the dunes on the other.
