The recent restoration of a modernist housing example in Athens emphasizes the blend of historical integrity and modern usability. Originally designed by A. Siagas, the building featured independent maisonettes that encapsulated the uniqueness of Athenian architecture. Abandoning this design for more conservative options altered its original character. The restoration, finalized in 2023, maintains key features while transforming interiors into flexible spaces, including a wooden staircase now serving communal functions and glass walls enhancing city connectivity. The project illustrates a balance between preserving architectural heritage and meeting current housing demands.
