Reviving Interwar Elegance: A Kolonaki Apartment Transformation
Nestled near Kolonaki’s central square, this apartment resides on the fourth floor of an interwar period edifice. Its dimensions echo the architectural essence of that era. Although the apartment naturally basks in light, its elongated corridor threatened to remain shadowed. To counter this, designers carved out two graceful light trails, seamlessly guiding one from the communal living arenas to the secluded bedrooms.
Initially compartmentalized into four distinct chambers, the apartment’s front section blossomed into a vast, unified expanse under a fresh vision. Firstly, the walls underwent meticulous re-sculpting to broaden the realm, seamlessly merging the living, dining, and office spaces, while also amplifying the kitchen area. Subsequently, the grandest of the three bedrooms now flaunts a private bathroom and an airy, landscaped zone doubling as a dressing room. Consequently, this transformation blends functionality with a touch of nature indoors, effortlessly showcasing a harmonious blend of past and present.
