The historical building was constructed in 1972 at the northern part of Athens. An earthquake-active region of Greece. 12000 sqm in a 30.000 sqm pine tree forest. It was designed by one of the most accomplished Greek architects Alexandros Tombazis and it’s one of the rare cases of the brutalist movement in Greece.

In 1978 a Third floor was added in the construction. In 2000 and after the deadly 1999 earthquake in Athens the buildings structural elements were reinforced to meet the New Greek anti-seismic law. In 2010 the building was abandoned and was to be demolished. In 2017 the building was bought by a private company who after a closed architectural competition assigned us it’s radical renovation.

The building consists of basement, ground floor, mezzanine and two floors. In the basement there are auxiliary spaces, warehouses, engine room, a small parking lot for ten cars for the administration and a service yard for loading and unloading, with access for trucks and cars through a ramp located at the back of the building.
