‘The Cubes’ is an exceptional sample of urban architecture. In the heart of Athens, in a high-dense urban landscape, a very small plot is hosting a new 9-levels residential building that provides each unit with interior-exterior permeability within light and of course privacy.
As a consequence of its facade breakdown, the overall envelope expands beyond the limits of the bi-dimensional bulk and offers multiple stages for the residents to interact between them and with the street. The building mimics the feeling of a small community and brings into its design many opportunities for 'street scale' interaction.
