The design of this historic 1950s apartment draws inspiration from the Byzantine, European, and Arabian influences that shaped Thessaloniki’s architectural identity. Aristotelous Square and its surrounding residential complexes, as envisioned by Ernest Hebrard after the fire of 1917, provided a strong reference point. The apartment’s monumental elements, such as high ceilings and intricate detailing, were meticulously restored to highlight the rich historical layers of the space.

A defining feature of the apartment is its 4.05m-high ceiling adorned with exposed beams and gypsum decorations. These architectural elements were carefully restored and accentuated through strategic lighting. Custom-built structures within the open living area were limited to a height of 3.20m, ensuring an airy atmosphere and maximizing the flow of natural light.
A patterned mosaic flooring extends from the entrance to the kitchen, paying homage to the building’s historical character and acting as a visual rug that unifies the space. Throughout the rest of the apartment, classic chevron parquet flooring reinforces European craftsmanship traditions, further enriching the residence’s historical narrative.
