Entrance redesign & architectural lighting of a residential building

PROJECT DETAILS:

Entrance design | Architectural lighting design | Construction supervision

Status: Completed

Country: Greece

Site: Agia Anna Kapela, Chios



This project involved the design and definition of the entrances to two residences, serving the upper floor and the basement level. The primary objective was to create a cohesive architectural composition that integrates seamlessly with the existing character and geometry of the building.

Lighting, colour, and planting were carefully combined to enhance the entrance area and establish a welcoming identity. As part of the intervention, a comprehensive architectural lighting scheme was developed for the entire building.

The lighting strategy emphasizes the building's vertical proportions through the use of double-emission wall luminaires with different beam angles, strategically positioned to highlight selected façade elements and create a balanced night-time architectural composition.
