The site is in a central part of Psychico, in a typical, flat site near Moraitis School. The concept revolves around the folding operation of a continuous loop, a strip that forms a double spiral and ensures the unobstructed “flowing” movement of the users. It is materialised in all three dimensions- in constant tension – in a cohesive “8” shape that can be read both directly with the building form and internally. The view and connection with the natural landscape unfolds along the length of this flowing movement. The building envelope is clad in two materials (stone-concrete) and are developed in a linear fashion to “tame” the geometry of the loop and anchor the building to the ground.
