Tripodon Plaka In the shade of Acropolis by GHH

The Home

Just in the heart of Plaka, the oldest part of the city of Athens lays this fantastic house.
Its unique views include the Acropolis Hill and the church of saint tade built during the Byzantine era.
The contemporary minimalistic architecture used during the recent rebuilt of the house is a juxtaposition to the most ancient and classic part of Athens, Plaka. However, the intention, as well as the outcome, is exactly this dialogue of the ancient with the contemporary. The reconciliation and the continuity of the past with the present. This blend has been succeeded mainly by the position of the roof and side windows. This positioning has achieved to bring the outside, inside. To bring the old into the new. Even if you are inside and view the side and the top of the old church and the east part of the Acropolis hill, in fact you have the feeling that you see the whole picture, as if you were outside.
