Text description provided by the architects. This private residence in Psychiko, an affluent suburb of Athens, was designed for maximum freedom of movement and flexibility. The house is divided into three distinct zones: a stone core inspired by the defensive rock of the Acropolis, an amphitheatrical upper floor, imagined as a pair of binoculars framing the expansive city views, and a transparent living area that occupies the space between them. Each zone is connected through a notional ribbon running through the site.
