ARCHI_ TECTURAL PROJECTS

Architecture School Type: Academic Project-Design Studio 7 Year:2018 Location: Thessaloniki, Greece Instructors: Ioannidis Konstantinos, Tellios Anastasios Team: Reci Orioni, Valsamaki Anastasia, Xarisis Grigoris

The main purpose of the new architecture school is to strengthen the connnection between the city life and the university, for it to become an active public space and at the same time bring people close to the field of architecture. The composition consists of a central volume -with the basic university functions-and two sub-volumes with the secondary functions. In between the buildings, two semi-exterior spaces are created in order to serve the circulation better. The key role of these transitional spaces lies with the fact that all functions are structured around them while at the same time they integrate the university to the urban fabric of the city, operating as public spaces, used by the citizens

The workshops are integrated in open, wide and high volumes, favored by the south orientation so that they are bright throughout the day. Their placement on the NS axis isolates them from the traffic noise of the Egnatia road while offering them a view of the

university’s open-space design. Their structure inside the building is staggered, according to the year of study and the needs of privacy, while their internal configuration varies, in order to offer different arrangement alternatives according to the students’ needs.

What’s next? Archifutures/ Authfutures The museum deals with the future. Through the prism of the architectural heritage in the museum, we are faced daily with the knowledge of how past thinking about the future has shaped contemporary reality. The spaces we live in are shaped by historical and contemporary architecture whilst at the same time being constantly subjected to thinking, planning and developing of projects of the future. Through a metabolist process our campus and its structure are being conctantly reread. Taking that into consideration, we are increasingly believing that “the distinction between the past, present, future is an outdated illusion”. We ‘re interested in a museum that emerges from history, the present and the future and sets no question of priorities related to time. We ‘re interested in recreatable architecture in vernacular forms. A museum that came from the reinterpretation of our campus and which could expand and shrink according to need as a system.

The image of the Campus of Aristotle University, can be easily read as a bundle of buildings, similar to the image of a building block in the centre of Thessaloniki, however its particles bring hidden architectural qualities. The renegotiation of the process through which a particle is reproduced and creates a system of extensions, as well as its death process,has been our research themes. We have attempted to propose a new process for an expandable and declining architecture, such as the architecture of the Campus, in a metabolic way.

The new architectural particles reinntroduce old qualities of the campus’ architecture while having dynamic relations between them, in the sense that they constitute a cohesive tissue that can potentially expand across the surface of the area, simultaneously changing itself, but also incorporating parasitic elements.This integration aims to create alternative reading proposals for the architecture of the system, of the its buildings and on a smaller scale, of the narrative itself. In the museum space, historical narrative translates into a spiral path with a unanimous address, but through additions, it is possible to transfer from the historical past to the workshops that knowledge of the historical past produces modern ideas.Through the building system, some uses are separated, giving space for reflection on the structure of the building program.

..about the exhibition

The parasitic unit, multiplied on the exterior of the building, shapes the articulated, detachable structures. On the inside, the unit is used in the main collection area, in order to create the path that follows the narrative. As a symbol of the future possibilities, multiple alternatives and transformations, the parasitic unit integrates into the narrative the concept of “re-definition of the past by the future” but also the possible influence of our apprehension for the present by our future aspirations. The unit is used as a display for the exhibits of the main colection (the past) interacting closely with them. At the same time its placement interfere with the space, transforming the natural flow of movement and assigninng multiple alternative ways of seeing the exhibition as well as multiple different approaches to the narrative. 3 different paths get created that way, each of them connecting past, future and present, inviting the visitor himself to follow his own path and interfere with the “narrative” depending on his choices. Certain exhibits are using the parasitic units that form the paths as displays. In this way the units themselves that create the paths towards the present and the future interfere with the narrative of the past.

TinderPark Type: Academic Project-Design Studio 8 Year:2019 Location: Thessaloniki, Greece Instructors: Malakasioti Angeliki Team: Karatza Konstantina, Valsamaki Anastasia

The project got presented in a video format of 03:12’. Tinder is one of the fastest growig apps of the last years, creating opportunities for millions of people to connect. Along with them, a whole cultural phenomenon appeared, with a whole new generation growing up knowing that tinder is one more tool to meet and connect. There, countless discussions are happening, concerning the concept of love, relationships and new social norms. So what better app to turn into reality? Tinder is new, fresh, smart. Time to make it bigger. The tinder logo is the start of the conceptual creation of the park. The organic curves are torn apart to create three different forms. These specific forms are used inside the park to create a freeform mass of buildings that allow for multiple different moves and a variety of uses. A new version of the app updated to make it possible to find matches in real life, according to one’s moves and interests. A 24-hour schedule of events present all the possible places where someone can meet people, depending on his/her interests.

04 The aim of the project is to understand the currating proccess of an art exhibition. The space chosen as an exhibition space is the gymnastics space of the campus, concept that relates to

33 the theme of the exhibition. The equipment of the space is used as decoration or as display equipment for the exhibits, in order to create the proper ambience to the area.

Landscape-in-between: a neighborhood, a river and some backyards

Type: Academic Project-Design Studio 9 Year:2021 Location: Thessaloniki, Greece Instructors: Papadopoulou Anastasia Team: Arvaniti Aliki, Ganiari Alexandra

Somewhere in-between the overpopulated urban fabric at the Toumpa area, the parasitic growth of the vegetal world, the stream Polygnotos and the material scraps of human interference in the landscape, we are aiming at designing a linear park, expanding along the stream’s flow. Considering the management of the landscape in terms of redevelopment, the idea followed is the one of “as found”. The design emphasize two flowing sequences in direct interaction with the stream. A visual path communicates with the proposal for a path siuitable for promenade. Both result from the need to give prominence to the points of interest of the reseaarch area. Consequently a material, visual and conceptual continuation of the narrative gets created. The urban equipment is placed accordingly, decompressing in various ponts the walk. Each point of interest gets discerned in categories accordingly with the kind of communication needed in the landscape. The story consists of 6 episodes.

episode 1: the entrance

episode 2: the stream

episode 4: serrenity into the forest

episode 6: one sunny sunday morning

Residential buildings account for 2/3 of the energy consumed in the construction sector or 30% of French energy consumption. To reduce this expenditure, it is necessary to call for new, less energy-intensive tools. Beyond the obvious and indispensable solar contribution, water pipes are tools for temperature regulation that can be used by putting rooms between them, or even dwellings between them, and allow by thermal solidarity to offer each user to “Heat his neighbour”. In addition, it appears that dwellings, regardless of their insulation, orientation or occupancy conditions, are often maintained at a constant and uniform temperature. This was therefore the starting point for a reflection on the daily and seasonal occupancy cycles, and the thermal needs adapted to each stage of these cycles. Thus, in this project, each element at each scale is linked to its environment but also to the neighbouring elements according mainly to the advantageous thermal exchanges they offer each other. In the living cell, the sun but also the damp, self-heating rooms, thermally dialogue with the living rooms that need more heat. From a physical boundary between two rooms, the wall becomes an exchange interface. For this reason, the qualities of the earth, in the form of rags or adobe, allow to create this dialogue, thanks to its conductivity, but also to its inertia that allows to synchronize the thermal cycles of the inhabitants with those of their natural or built environment. Assemblies in one building, the exchange takes place no longer only within the cells but also between them. In addition, a new dialogue with the environment is established, allowing the use of the sun not only as a heating tool but also as a ventilation tool, thanks to differences in pressure allowed by the assembly and orientation of the cells. The project finally proposes to rethink the concept of residential thermal comfort, to adapt it to the cycles that surround it, inhabit and compose it, whether human or material, and to integrate it into the project no longer as a vague binding consideration but as a compositional tool to create relationships, again, human or material.

Art and the city: un-mappings Type: Academic Project Year:2020 Location: Thessaloniki, Greece Instructors: Kalara Konstantina Team: Tsaousidou, Xrysa

Focusing on Aristotelous area in Thessaloniki, the series try to comment the extreme social differences that are seen there.

59 Mixing the past with the present, figures of magazines from the 60’s -that depict the ideal of “housewives” and high-society well-dressed women- are combined with present photographs of the Kapani, a traditional market of Aristotelous. As a final result, the woman of the past enters the market of today,

commenting on the relationship between man and woman, her position in society as well as the internal contradictions that appear in society itself.

_SUMMER WORKSHOPS

Live the water/ In-natural water

Type: Summer Workshop by Archistart Year:2018 Location: Lecce, Italy Instructors: Nunzia De Comite , Nicola Martielli Team: Kraiem Ahmed Yassine , Leila Berrached , Simone Bianco , Maria Racioppi , Yuliia Svichynska Link: https://www.archistart.net/news/lecce-coastal-regeneration-topics/

The proposition of the project ‘in-natural water’ is to create different areas for sports and relaxing while respecting the natural harmony of ‘Torre Chianca‘ Basin.

65 The Observatory gives the opportunity to contemplate the view of both the lake and the beach.

The modular platform can be used in different ways like floating all around the lake and connecting the other stations.

Conceptual models of Camden Market

10 The project attempted to capture the Camden market through conceptual and abstract models, which were trying to carry out the entire market experience.The tool created was named Framing Machine. It is a wooden object that the user needs to place on the shoulder and use it as a telescope that

allows him to adapt and greatly differentiate what is seen through it. With the use of the tool, one could wander around the entire exhibition of models made and notice them by focusing on different qualities they have, isolating their elements and concealing details,creating different frames for each user according to the way he choses to experience the exhibition.

Form Follows Fiction: an Architectural Narrativity Guide

Type: Graduate Thesis Year:2021 Location:Thessaloniki, Greece Instructors: Kalara Konstantina Links: http://ikee.lib.auth.gr/record/329042 https://issuu.com/2046875/docs/__________-_________compressed

Our daily interaction with the built space, consists of a series of experiences that get realized due to very specific properties attributed to him. The representation of these experiences, before the creation of the architectural building or in cases of theoretical-conceptual projects, is achieved by using tools that mediate between architectural design and reality. These tools seek, with the appropriate element composition, to better communicate a certain amount of “encoded” meanings and qualities of architecture, in order to get them understood by the public without the direct, real-time interaction with the architectural work. By paralleling these experiences with a narrative, it is noted that the placement of action and characters in the representation, enriches and creates just the needed bridge of communication with reality. Therefore, the exploitation of narrative techniques, in the architectural representation, has the ability to transform the information that it communicates to new elements that are better understood by the public and achieve to stimulate interest and interaction more effectively than typical architectural plans. Where are these tools are identified, how they operate and what results do they carry? The present thesis examines how, the experiences we collect due to our interaction with the built space achieve to get represented. It lays out the tools that mediate between reality and architectural design. It explains how these tools aim at communicating better all these “encoded” and hidden meanings architecture has. It is practically a guide for the apprehension and use of narrative in architectural representation.
