DESIGN PM & BIM PROJECTS FOR CONSTRUCTION // GCC EXPERIENCE The below pages show the key responsibilities of TDA members in Design, BIM & Project Management projects in Doha, Qatar from 2015 to 2020

EDUCATION CITY FUTURE SCHOOLS (ECFS) | 2018 -2020 Positions: • Design Manager (Christina Giannoulaki) Under J&P AVAX • Head of Architectural Design (Prodromos Vasileiadis) Under SALFO Client: Supreme Committee Project Description: ECFS was a design and build project that was developed inside the perimeter of the Education City Stadium (ECS) plot during the construction phase of the latter. In the same master plan of the Education City Stadium (ECS), Qatar Foundation decided to include two education facilities of 18.900sqm that will accommodate a STEM (QAST) and Progressive (ACADEMYATI) school. The main contractor of the project was JPAC (Joint Venture of J&P Qatar and Conspel). The designers of the first stages (Consept and Schematic) was the Whight and Co firm, who won the architectural competition that was organized from JPAC on behalf of Qatar Foundation and Supreme Committee on January 2018. After Schematic design stages JPAC commissioned the design to SALFO Qatar. The main principle of the schools’ architectural design was a complete integration of the building volumes in an already developed master plan, matching the architectural language of the ECS that was already under construction. Also, the spatial configuration of the schools had to be suitable to accommodate a demanding progressive educational curriculum that is based to flexibility and multifunctional workshops. The integration was achieved mainly by a clever formation of two main school buildings at the South and North side of the plot by following the curves of the main pedestrian walkway that leads to the Stadium. The layouts of the schools were developed by the connection of the separate volumes dedicated to the different school grades and their distinct functions. The independent volumes were connected with double height atriums and gathering alleys/ spaces. Externally at each school, the unifying element that brings all the separate volumes together, is a steel Canopy perforated with a mashrabiya pattern. The buildings are reinforced concrete structures with blockworks. Their external envelope has been formed on the facade with stony cavity walls that alternate with curtain walls and on the top by a steel structure of Mashrabiya Canopy. Responsibilities: • Define and Deliver design packages as per contractual requirements • Coordination of different stakeholders resolving coordination issues regarding common interfaces • Interface with Construction manager for resolving constructability challenges through design. • Interface with Client ‘s Project Manager for further alignments of the design to the Client preference. • Reporting of Design Progress and Results. • Presents new Proposals and changes during design and built process • Ensure compliance of the design with International standards and Construction Codes (QCS) • Production and deliverable of IFC Architectural submissions and Shop drawings • Responsible for official correspondence for negotiations of contractual conflicts regarding design requirements. 4

EDUCATION CITY STADIUM (ECS) | 2016 -2020 Positions: BIM Project Manager (Christina Giannoulaki) Under J&P AVAX Client: Supreme Committee Project Description: Education City Stadium is a FIFA football stadium of 45.350 seats and GFA of 196,227 sqm, built for the World Cup 2022 in Qatar.

Prepared: Christina Giannoulaki– BIM PM

The building is located in a prestigious education area of Doha (Education City), in Al Rayyan area among many University Campuses of Education City with the purpose to be used for their athletic programs after the 2022 World Cup. This strategy led to a unique design of a steel demountable upper tier that will be removed and allow the transformation of the upper levels of the Stadium bowl in order to accommodate administration offices and open sports deck with associated auxiliary rooms for the athletic activities of the universities. This phase that called legacy stage will be initiated after the Word cup of 2022. The detail and construction design were commissioned to Pattern Architects and Burro Happold who maintain the initial TD of Fenwick Iribarren architects by developing effective value engineering strategies through an optimization of the building envelope and interior design. Overall, the inner structure of the stadium was constructed by reinforced concrete apart from the bowl that is made of pre-cast concrete and the demountable tier that was built independently by a removable steel structure. A steel external envelope wraps around the building mass from the external podium to the dripline edge above the field of play. Whilst independent cladding systems, the roof and façade consisted of triangulated panels by metal fabric and aluminium sheets, were connected seamlessly to create a singular cohesive form realising the Diamond aesthetic of the initial design. The design of all disciplines was developed through BIM that led to an effective coordination and fast production of construction documentation that boosted the speed of the construction. Responsibilities: • Development and implementation of BIM workflows and methodology. • Design review in conjunction with BIM deliverables. • Design coordination, clash analysis of the architectural BIM models and its related interfaces, reporting and utilization. • Ensure full compliance of international BIM standards. • Parametric Design and optimization of complex structures (Curtain Walls and Roofs). • Coordination of different stakeholders resolving coordination issues regarding common interfaces. • Interface with Client‘s BIM Manager for monitoring design progress and interface coordination. • Interface with BIM Constructability Manager for related meetings and constructability conflicts. • Lead team of BIM Operator/BIM Modelers to produce a specific BIM trade or BIM group trades • Ensure the proper preparation and production of Shop drawings. • Coordination, managing and editing BIM documentation (BIM PMP, BIM manual). 5

The HIOC is a design proposal in a city with a rapid development, increasing population and demands. LAVA Berlin proposed an interweaving design approach for a mixed program of office, hotel, plaza and retail. The result brings together both vertical and horizontal elements to the site. This can be seen as a new symbolic icon representing a rich history of the China. The horizontal development is a constant dialogue between interior public spaces that offer entertainment and retail facilities in a mall, with the outdoor public spaces of two inter-

This will have a buzz of activity. Following the path toward the hotel lifts, guests will pass through areas of moderate integration and good levels of activity. The most spatially segregated area of the plan is behind the hotel lifts, which will be quiet most of the time, with very low levels of activity. The plan focuses activity toward the entrance and tranquil zones toward night areas / access to the rooms on the upper levels.

MIXED USE COMPLEX IN AL KINANA DOHA | QATAR | PRELIMINARY STUDY Architectural Design Under SALFO

Gross Area 50.000 sqm

The project refers to a mixed-use development located in an urban plot of 15.000 sqm. The development combines residential spaces, retail, offices and a small clinic in a total of 50.000 GFA area. The concept of the proposal can be described as “Gardens overviewing the street / street looking at the gardens” and aims to develop a new vocabulary of urban design within a mixed use plot. More than just another building in the city, the proposal constitutes a new approach to the transcendence between the public space and private areas, as it aims at welcoming the pedestrian circulation from the main street in front of the plot, while providing a public square to the plot itself as well as to the surrounding plots.

Status Unrealized

As the plot comprises of a mixeduse typology, the public realm is welcomed inside, but filtered through layers of open spaces to ensure the privacy required for the residential areas. The retail is extended to cover the ground floor, open and inviting customers, thus expanding in total area and revenue. The residential building volumes overlook both the internal park and the surrounding roads. Privacy is provided to the apartments by the use of moving blinds and planted terraces.

The architectural vocabulary that is used emphasizes on a sense of lightness and openness, a constant movement of the people and the image of the building, resulting in a series of different façade scenarios throughout The ‘TERRACED GARDENS” is composed by a juxtapo- the day.

The ramp-park can be easily walked up to the between the exterior and interior spaces. first level of the retail, attracting customers to the shops, and continue afterwards as a private access to the pool area of the residential buildings. Beautiful softscape arrangements and careful selection of plants contribute to the creation of a segmented park in the heart of the building block. Resting at the top of the cascaded green area, the pool enjoys views to the plaza below and to the street.

CULTURAL CENTER AND THEATER IN THE MUNICIPALITY OF AMPELOKIPOI THESSALONIKI | COMMISSION Participated as Polytopon in collaboration with: Nikos Kalogirou, Vicky Eutaxa, Dimitris Simonis, Telis Vasileiadis, Niovi Karamitrou The cultural center in the Municipality of Ampelokipi was constructed on a site of an 871.55 sq. m. surface with the total constructed area reaching 2091.72 sq. m. The building program comprises a theater hall with a capacity of 300 seats with all necessary required facilities, a library, dance and gym rooms, offices, and an underground car parking. A main element of the concept was to reserve all ground floor area as a community public space, maximizing its use as an access to the garden at the back of the site. Given this decision the theater hall, of a larger surface, was located at the upper levels with stage area projecting as an overhanging volume dominating the street facade while the recessed floor levels give the building an urban character on the streetscape. An arcade is formed by the columns supporting the auditorium underlining the public character of the cultural center. This arrangement of the different functions diminishes the scale of the building volumes on the street facade giving the impression of a lighter structure with fine proportions.

facade the staircase is underlined as a continuous vertical element with horizontal openings enhancing the intermediate landing levels of the staircase. Above, the suspended metal volume of the theater hall, with an outwards inclined facade, is dressed with wooden panels. The overall architectural composition results from the functional arrangement cited above, aiming at the creation of a singular and original public building that could function as a landmark in an area of low-quality conventional buildings. The overall composition demonstrates a contemporary architectural approach with a sensitive handling of abstract plain surfaces, while the structural system of the building remains apparent. The distribution of the building‘s functions is evident in the main facade of the cultural center and there is a latent reference to the local traditional architecture with the open courtyard, the massive base of the building and the prevailing presence of the metal overhanging volume dressed in wood. The building was carried out on a low budget of 4000000 Euros.

ADDITION TO THE MUNICIPAL THEATRE OF PLOVDIV PLOVDIV 2007 | BULGARIA| PRELIMINARY STUDY Architectural Study As Polytopon

While the restoration of the Plovdiv Opera House was in progress, a study was commissioned to assess the capacity of the existing building to expand providing additional administration areas, office areas and F&B areas. The concept of the architectural study, was to create a distinctive structure that would contradict in terms of materials, volumes and shapes the “rigid” Opera House, in order to allow the proportionally small expansion to “pop up”. The additional volume was designed as an inverted U that mounts the Opera house and consists of 2 separate small buildings, that could operate according to the needs of the Opera building administration, and platform (bridge) of nearly 30m span that connects the 2 buildings. The platform would be utilized as an F&B area that overlooks the Opera building and provides views of the city.

ferent uses as well as the major constraints of this project, were mainly imposed by the site, which is defined by two different public roads. One is a highway with heavy traffic and the other is a quiet, common residential road.

The part of the building which is adjoined with the highway (Bouliagmeni Street) was designed to reflect an intense public character. Being formed by separated elongated volumes along the highway, this part of the building

emphasizes the road’s dynamic movements. Therefore, the linear, transparent part of the building accommodates the commercial uses. The adjoining part at the residential road has a more static and solid presence.

One zone includes all the public areas of the complex, amenities and some guestrooms mostly for short term periods. The other zone is more isolated, has a more lush softscape, a very large swimming pool and surrounding area that provides a pleasant and healthy environment for long term stay. The project was assigned by a Real Estate company in an effort to investigate the capacity of the site to accommodate a luxurious resort, which could be utilized either as a luxury resort/spa hotel or a welfare facility for senior age group guests. The site is located very close to the natural thermal springs of lake Kaiafa and the historical site of Olympia, while the plot is divided into two by a stream which was a decisive parameter that led the architectural design to create 2 different volumes.

Gross Area 320 sqm

The House is located in an urban developing part in the city of Thessaloniki, and designed with a sound sense of urbanity. The design is based on the concept of an optimum synthesis of a family house with a yard in a dense and restricted environment. The proportionally long and narrow plot raises a number of constraints and results effectively in the volumetric modelling of the house. The regulations in force include the alignment with the adjacent buildings, the maximum height, the placing of the house in the plot and the relationship with the borders. Expanding in 4 stories high and a

semi-basement which exploits the slopes of the plot, the architectural programme coincides the residential needs of the family with a professional working place for the owner and a parking place. The handling of all parameters also takes into account the formation of vital green areas in the plot. The volumetric articulation is underlined by the use of a specific range of materials which highlight the construction features of the building. The overall approach aims at delivering an outstanding spot in the area yet maintaining a sense of an autonomous single family house.

The main aim of the design is to have the front volume of the building look to the sea in the north east direction, to provide to all of the apartments a view to the sea. The back volume has a more static role making the appropriate “counterpoint” to the front volume of the building which is more open.

URBAN STRIPES BUILDING KOUKAKI | ATHENS | GREECE Design Authoring Under KLAB

Gross Area 1000 sqm

Status Constructed

In the area of the centre of Athens named Koukaki, two major architectural modernistic build examples exist. The first is the Fix building by Takis Zenetos and the new museum of Acropolis by Tchumi. “Urban stripes” uses elements of both buildings in producing a new facade

for an apartment building. The generic typology of a “polykatoikia” facade that exist in linearity of their balconies and the same position of the windows in every floor comes in severe conflict with the seeming randomness of the linearity of the windows that create the facade.

According to construction law the two last floors of the buildings in Athens should shrink back an appropriate distance which is useful for the natural lighting of the road. This requirement is always a challenge for the architects in order to create an interesting volumetric approach which can also conform to the regulation.

the path is the basement of the house which also makes up the base for the main building with the basic exterior living space and the pool. All the main spaces of the building have a view to the sea.

Furthermore, the back-North side of the building and the north east are protected, as the whole building at these two sides is embraced with a solid concrete wall with small holes for light and air in order for the spaces to be protected from direct sunlight and

strong winds. In that zone the vertical movements are placed, with the stair and the lift that connects the three levels of the house. The movement zone that connects the three levels of the house by a stair and a lift, is placed in this area.

BEACH HOUSE VILLA MUSCAT | OMAN Architectural Design Under SALFO

Gross Area 400 sqm

The location of this study is in a resort area in proximity to Muscat. The Client envisioned a villa that would resemble to a Greek island house with an infinity pool. The objectives that the architectural design had to overcome referred mainly to the handling of the ratio of the introvert and extrovert elements so that the Greek and the Arabic house could meet, despite some major differences that they have. Therefore, all the rooms are placed on the upper floor which is in recess and protected from the unfamiliar gaze, while the living room and common areas are placed on the lower level in a continuity with the pool deck, resembling a Greek island resort house.

Status Unrealized

The volumes have references to the Greek traditional architecture of Cyclades, the edges of the walls are smooth, similar to the Arabic and Cycladic architecture, the natural stone has been proposed for the lower zone, while the upper zone has the off white/sand color which is very familiar to the middle eastern architecture. At the same time some very distinctive modern elements are introduced, such as a large cantilever and wide full height sliding glass windows at the living room area that when open expand the living room area towards the outside/pool deck area.

Gross Area 250 sqm

Drafi is a small residential area at the foot of the Penteli mountain, and pertains to the east of Attiki. In this magnificent natural environment, the building plot provides a significant view of surrounding mountain peaks and the east suburbs of Attiki that extend to the sea. This privilege led to

the creation a rectangular box, with its long side towards to the view. The concrete box includes all the house spaces from which the living room with the dining room and the kitchen are in ground level, thus connecting directly with the pool, and the private rooms are in the first floor.

The owners of the house wanted to have an extra space for their professional office which should have its own discrete entrance. Therefore, another rectangular volume, with the same length with the concrete base, is created and placed on the top of

the concrete box. In order to be functionally and visually isolated from the house, the volume of the office was placed three meters behind the edge of the concrete box and was extruded at the back.

APARTMENT RENOVATION IN ASKLIPIOU ST

ATHENS | GREECE Interio Design As NoboCollective

Gross Area 75 sqm

This renovation has the goal of restoring an old apartment in Asclipiou street in the centre of Athens, and also to create an interior space that will satisfy the needs of its proprietor who has chosen to live alone. Hence, it was designed as an open space with the main living spaces unified.

Status Constructed

The only two isolated spaces of the apartment are the bedroom, which is in a closed lighted box of polycarbonate boards, and the bathroom, which is designed as a separate volume of bricks inside the living space. The majority of the materials are inexpensive and sustainable.

The conspicuous library in the living room which also has an embodied loft for office work is a sectional construction of steel sheets and wooden boards of OSB. One of the main concepts is that the apartment is divided in two, by an imaginary line, expressed with

different flooring materials, which separates the space for study and tabletop gaming from the living room and kitchen. The whole place has an industrial character that expresses the style of proprietor and connotes the comfort of solitary life.

“FORMATION AND RECLAMATION OF PUBLIC SPACES & ENHANCEMENT OF LANDMARK SPAES” THESSALONIKI 2013 | ARCHITECTURAL COMPETITION | 1st PRIZE Architectural Study As Polytopon

Status Competition 1st Prize

The study area is located in an urban area of Thessaloniki, on the crossing of Egnatia and Botsari streets. The specific site was formerly run by a stream and is articulated from an array of fragmented open spaces. Empty lots and playgrounds alternate with green spaces and incomprehensible squares in a disorganized way. There is no spatial succession, while each of its parts appears particularly rundown.

For the data processing and its translation to imagery the format of the “punch card” is used, in a manner analogous with Jaquard looms, creating patterns of increased complexity. The parameters of the solution are analyzed, quantified and transferred through various “punch cards”. Their superimposition in the final outcome is where all design categories meet their exact spatial analogy. They are in essence the new stratification that weaves the urban tissue.

This study identifies the major problem of fragmented public space and proposes that the area is perceived as a single spatial unit and thus organized as an oblong continuous Square run by continuous pedestrian route. Concurrently, it articulates into three distinct parts: an urban square, a transitional zone and an enclosed urban courtyard. Highlighting the user as a priority, the design intends to create a multidimensional space with the ability to meet the ever-changing needs of a wide range of users. The proposal aims at transforming the region into a singular public space that can be perceived in its entity, while simultaneously meeting multiple requirements regarding the aesthetic, functional, bioclimatic and technological upgrading.

COMPETITION | RENOVATION OF THEATER SQUARE MONASTIRAKI | ATHENS | GREECE | COMPETITION Interio Design As NoboCollective

Status Unbuilt

The goal of this competition was the finding of a proposal for the building facades which embraces the Theatre square in the centre of Athens, a crowded plaza, and the reconstruction of the main public spaces of this square. In our proposal we try to create a pattern of wooden boards which aim to protect the apartments from the sun and also provide an appropriate space for plant growth on the facades. The challenge in this concept was the fragmented public space of this plaza which was divided by the surrounding roads. Specifically, the

theatre square is an old type of classical plaza with a public building in the middle, so the spaces for people accumulation are the roads around this central building. Therefore, we tried to create an overall character for the main roads of the public space. The benches, the engraved lines on the pedestrian walkways and the trees direct the people in the gathering spaces on the square. All the road equipment is harmonized with the commercial activity in the road and has coherence with the design of the facades.

PROPOSAL OF THE TECHNICAL CHAMBER OF GREECE FOR THE “CONSERVATION AND ENHACEMENT OF THE ARCHEOLOGICAL EXCAVATIONS IN VENIZELOU UNDERGROUND STATION” THESSALONIKI Architectural Study As Polytopon with Nikos Kalogirou and Varvara Karaoglou

During the construction of Thessaloniki’s underground railway (Metro), the discovery of Roman era antiquities, of exceptional historical value, has raised a discussion regarding the co-existence of the Venizelou Metro station and the antiquities. The Technical Chamber of Greece (Department of Central Macedonia) and the University of Thessaloniki (AUTH) gathered a team of specialists leaded by Prof. of Architecture Nikos Kalogirou and the Art and Architecture Historian Prof. Matoula Skaltsa to organize a workgroup (Polytopon for the Architectural assessment) in order to produce a proposal regarding the architectural design treatment for the Metro Station. The study had as the base of design the “mosaic” of the city. Thessaloniki is a city where there are layers of antiquities from different periods and civilizations that

122

coexisted or succeeded one another. In a similar manner the architectural study proposes the juxtaposition of the station use over the antiquities (as a layer above a layer) with the use of suspended glass platforms. This would allow the everyday travelers to live and feel the presence of the antiquities in a daily manner that would educate and connect them with the history of the city. Along with the historical issues, a lot of sustainability issues had been raised and were incorporated to the design. Such items were the penetration of natural lighting, the amount of softscape that what added with green walls and water absorbent pavements and mostly light metal structures with low carbon footprint.

PROPOSAL FOR THE FORMATION OF A NEW PUBLIC SQUARE IN THESSALONIKI THESSALONIKI | PRELIMINARY STUDY Architectural Study As Polytopon in collaboration with Tasos Gotoudis, Zoe Marmataki, Aphrodite Tsiouri

The study was part of an educational project under the Landscape Post-graduate program of AUTH and was also exhibited at the 9th European Biennial of Landscape Architecture. The focus-area of the project is in the center of Thessaloniki. The project proposes the attachment of architecturally-important buildings, for example the Archeological Museum to a redesigned central axis. On the first place, the visual field is hindered along the current, main axis and secondly, the museum itself is not easily noticeable from the area around. Moreover, the existing green areas are unevenly distributed and in bad condition.

Status Unrealized

reconstruction of the already existing main road intersections. This entails the correct distribution of the plantations and new appropriate ones. The proposed axis will serve as a pedestrian area apart from the points that are intermittent only for the main traffic lanes. The second objective is bringing the museum’s surrounding area into the spotlight after the careful designing of the green landscape in order to facilitate the access to the museum in the wider local area. The museum then will be connected to its patio and consequently the exhibits would be visible both from the outside and the proposed underground expansion of the museum.

The first objective of this project is the recreation of a main, central axis, which aims at the construction of a place for As a result, a central square is created within the surroundarcheological tours and explorations for pedestrians along ing area of the museum, which will unite the entrances of all with the axis’s connection to all adjacent, green areas of- the culturally important edifices and the neighboring parks. fering an easy access and transition for the visitors.
