CULTURAL CLUSTER
_concept
_sustainability The building is designed to achieve a BREEAM Outstanding with total score 93.3%. It is designed to exploit the wind driven natural ventilation with openings on one side of a space in different heights. It is combined with stack ventilation (passive ventilation), where the hot air rises due to buoyancy and it is exhausted through the skylights. Solar panels are used to generate energy for the building to use. They are placed on the higher rooftops of the building (height 5.45m) to avoid shading from the adjacent volumes. They face south with a tint of 30 degrees to maximize the solar intake. A water reuse system is adopted collecting the rainwater and distribute it throughout the building.
_west-east section
During the summer, the building is energy positive. It generates more energy than it consumes.

_goals
- conversion of the land in a quiet environment minimizing the noise from the motorway - construction of a flea market for sale and exhibition of organic products - integration of the new intervention with the existing building - creation of a space for educational purposes - creation of a space for rest for the workers near the crops - use of mostly green materials
Purpose of this thesis is the creation of a place of production and exhibition of organic products on the plot of AUTH organic farming as a continuity of the operations of Eco-AUTH. The aim is to create an area based on ecological consciousness contributing to the actions that will transform the University into the first ecological university in Greece.

GREEN (M)ALL
A central axis on which all uses appear is created. It starts from the flea market and its configuration of mobile crates, it continues in the main building with a central hallway, which leads outside to the existing building and ends in the auditorium.
_site plan
Existing planting consists mainly of pine trees, aspen trees and some olives. The proposal includes strengthening these conifer trees to reduce noise. Red trees are arranged to give direction towards the building. On parking spaces, evergreen trees are planted for continuous shading, while on the way to the grove, fruit trees are planted. That way, a mild terrain is created exploiting the possibilities of planting.
This project is about the design of a new important place full of character and identity both for the Nea Paralia of Thessaloniki in Greece and the whole city. Objective of this workshop is to create an impressive and spectacular design centre, which will attract people of all ages during the day and all year long.

DESIGN CENTRE
MEGASTRUCTURE
_concept
The concept of the “maze� inside the building places restrictions in movements. The megastructure is accessed through a tower situated at the pier, that coexists as an observatory and lighthouse at night. It links the building with an overground route, and a cable car line. A path is also created over the sea level along with a twin underground lane in case of bad weather.
Paths which start from the coastal walk and end up in the design centre are designed. The height of the megastructure is 40 meters in order not to obstruct the view and interrupt the horizontality of the landscape. The use of glass and mirror as catalytic materials contribute to these purposes.
_diagram of movement
The BRIDGE concept: A bridge that connects the urban fabric with the sea, the two cycles with each other, but at the same time separates them.
The main goal is the link of the sea, the urban fabric, and the two cycles of the educational building. One element that is highlighted is the exploitation of the views to the waterfront while protecting from northern winds. The creation of the ‘linking’ green space serves the morning and afternoon needs of the educational building.

BRIDGE SCHOOL
The rooftops are given different shapes and heights for the natural light to enter the building. It also serves to the adjustment of the building into its slopping surrounding, so it does not obstruct the sea view and it is in harmony with the landscape.

_model
_plan
The objectives and initial ideas were based on data from the site visit. The main goals were continuity between the ground and the building, continuity between the building and the sea, and flow of functions The strong sense of perspective of the site is adopted by the building. Finally, the view to the sea is unobstructed due to the form of the building and the spatial planning of uses.
East Thessaloniki, Greece Course: From design to construction (2011-2012)
The continuity between the ground and the building is achieved by the contours that shape its roof. The continuity of the building towards the sea is achieved by placing the breakwater as an extension of the building. The connection of all functions and the access to them is realised by the creation of an atrium resulting in direct connection of the marina and the road, leading to the entrance of the unit. The sense of perspective and the unobstructed view towards the sea is realised by the placement of the building along the river. _section

THE DRIPPING LIFOREST
The intention was to create the feeling that the forest of Sheikh Sou “is dripping� towards the sea through this stream, as the streams and torrents of Thessaloniki begin from Sheikh Sou and end up in the sea. This is achieved by planting clusters of conifer trees along the site. At the same time, the design is transforming the stream into one with dual identity, with a local and a hypertopical character, which are separated by a main route.

TABLE MODELLING
The form of the table is inspired by the form of the cellule, that was previously modelled in Rhino. The principles of the void, the complete and the continuity are adopted in the new object.
