In architectural language, this is expressed through organic volumes and smooth, curved motions. These harmonize with the space, subtly defining its various functions, with the goal of creating a sense of flow and harmony that permeates every corner of the environment.

One of the main architectural challenges was the incorporation of an external elevator for disabled access to the upper floor, with direct entry to the space and exclusive use by The Hall. The creation of a second entrance required a redesign of the surrounding area, so that it could integrate seamlessly with the existing building. The new private access space to the elevator was carefully designed, incorporating planting and green areas that enhance the visual and functional connection with the landscape.

Earthy tones, combined with gold details and luxurious materials such as marble and blown glass, were chosen to create a space of high aesthetics and refined beauty. Additionally, a luxurious podiatry cabin was designed, meeting all necessary specifications and equipped with the most modern medical sterilization equipment, redefining nail care and elevating the service to a new level of expertise and comfort.

With the luxurious Nail Bar as its central feature, the manicure and pedicure areas were separated by specially designed stepped constructions made of golden rods, allowing natural light to flow freely throughout the space. This creates a sense of discreet privacy, while still maintaining an open flow of light. The overall design of the space, particularly the manicure and pedicure stations, is oriented toward unobstructed views of Mount Parnitha, aiming to promote calmness and well-being.

In the heart of Glyfada, this contemporary loft redefines the concept of luxury living by achieving the perfect balance between functionality and aesthetics. The design was driven by the need to capitalize on the shell’s height, creating a two-level interior space without losing the sense of unity. The flow between levels is not only spatial but also visually seamless and bright.

The entrance is marked by a double-height fireplace that serves as an orientation point and a stabilizing element in the overall composition. From there, the design follows an axis of transparency and movement: natural light penetrates and diffuses in all directions, enhanced by the strategic use of mirrors in areas with limited illumination, thereby creating a greater sense of space and comfort. This is particularly important for a large family, where functionality and privacy are primary concerns. At the same time, materiality is highlighted, enriching the atmosphere of the space.

Privacy is achieved not through isolation but through the careful placement of functions and controlled sightlines. The master bedroom, while visually connected to the living room, maintains its autonomy through deliberate level changes and partition surfaces that define the space without fully separating it.

The layout responds to the real needs of the users: flexibility, brightness, clean lines, and the ability to reconfigure uses. This is not a staged space but a lived, dynamic environment where volumes have purpose and geometry serves everyday life.

The choice of the loft typology is not merely stylistic but fundamentally functional. It offers perspective, connects and unites spaces, allowing light, shadow, and human presence to shape the final form.

The concept for Myronidis Estate was born from a profound affection for nature and hospitality. In the early 2010s, the founders envisioned a venue that would offer visitors moments of absolute harmony, elegance, and flexibility for any type of event.

The 12.5‑acre site was thoughtfully selected to combine the tranquility of the countryside with easy access to Thessaloniki and proximity to Macedonia Airport. Driven by a vision to create something truly unique, they sculpted lush, open spaces that harmonize with the natural landscape, enhancing a sense of calm. The built structures were designed to meet the demands of even the most sophisticated events, while providing warmth and comfort during the winter months.

In 2024, Nous was commissioned to elevate the venue with a design that is both monumental and timeless. With meticulous attention to detail and enduring aesthetics, Myronidis Estate was considered not merely an event venue, but a place where moments become memories.

Our approach centered on the spatial flow. We focused on a cohesive architectural language without exaggeration, reinforcing the building’s identity and integrating the exterior spaces organically into a unified composition.

Working with a neutral framework, every geometric articulation became central to the overall design intent. The aim: to craft a space with a clear architectural presence, both indoors and within its surrounding landscape.

We sought a design element whose form could metaphorically convey these values.

The central architectural concept takes the form of a “veil” rising from the ground and transforming mid‑air—a lightweight sculptural volume that at times embraces, at times welcomes, without imposing. Curvature becomes a key morphological tool, enhancing emotional connection with the space and organically linking architecture with human experience.

Each curve generates dynamic movement and imbues the Myronidis building with a renewed character. It also ties back to our previous project—the Anthous offices. The idea emerged from rejecting angular geometry, informed by contemporary research on human-centered design and psychology. In the new design era, curved lines and organic forms prevail—not only for aesthetics but for their positive impact on perception and wellbeing.

In a world dominated by rigid geometries, curvature arrives as a breath of freedom—softening the form, calming the eye, and conveying balance. Curved design is no longer a trend but an architectural evolution that embraces sustainability, fluidity, and harmony with its context.

The layout follows the natural flow of existing pathways. The main entrance is framed by new architectural structures to create a ceremonial entry experience. Originally subtle, the entrance was reshaped with guiding elements that visually and functionally lead the visitor, providing a gradual preparatory experience and strengthening the sense of progressive revelation. Sculptural features act as prelude points—before entry or circulation within the venue.

A waiting zone is strategically placed as a transitional pause before exploring the space. Integrated seating “nooks” support relaxation and social interaction, while existing paths direct the visitor to curated focal points and activity nodes.

Lighting plays a pivotal role in the composition: a continuous luminous channel, mounted on the ceiling (above and below), provides unified, indirect illumination that accentuates the sculptural forms. The ambiance remains pure, discreet, and atmospheric.

Special attention was given to the existing fountain, elevated into an architectural landmark. Surrounded by curved elements suggesting embrace, the water flows gently among white spherical forms that symbolize fullness. Discreet, harmonious lighting enhances serenity and dramatism.
