THE LIFE GODDESS EXPERIMENTAL
A greek restaurant in central London that portrays an indoor courtyard where the open kitch-en appears under the vineyard. A meeting point for friends and family to share food, thoughts, moments together. Ceramic handmade plates on the wall, cotton pendant lights, that rep-resent the way the famous feta cheese is made, are only some of the details of greek culture.

The concept of this store follows specific principles of greek spirit and culture. Our intention was a place that signifys and not just represents Greece. Human scale was our guide. Nothing surpasses man and his sovereign needs. We envisioned a space where movement provokes people‘s senses. Our aim was the harmonious coexistence of design and the Greek traditional product and food.
Our vision was to create a clear space with open and hid-den sur faces, where natural l ight and downlights change the scenery. White is the main color that creates clearness and harmony. I t leaves the details to follow, giving them a strong character. Here are some sketches, general plans and a few photos as the project is not completed yet.
Elegant and simple were the two main elements that we wanted to attribute to this space. A three - floor villa with an interior bal-cony between the ground floor and the first floor was ready to be shaped. We designed and used the metal panels that signify each space but at the same time offer a feeling of continuity from one room to another. The wooden wall coverings create warmth and they balance with the other white surfaces.We managed to remove anything that was unnecessary. The wide windows allow the light and nature to enter the house.The natural light was also our guide to conceive a place with clarity and attention to detail.

This 1840’s Classic Stucco Villa is characterised by Italian architectural features, such as imposing cornice structures, pronounced architraves, and wooden pan-elling on the walls. By removing most of the internal decorative elements, these architectural details be-come even more pronounced and the house acquires a more formal aesthetic.In our approach, we try to soft-en the existing formality of the space and emit a more livedin,family-oriented and relaxed feel. Moving from one room to the other should be a delightful and un-expected experience. Every room should have individ-uality, but also create a sense of familiarity and harmo-ny with the rest of the spaces.We believe that a home is a vessel for inner search and spirituality.
