Walking as Sensory Method: Narrative Approaches to Urban Experience
Με ιδιαίτερη χαρά συμμετέχω στο Embodiments | Ενσώματες Αντιλήψεις: Τέχνη, Ατμόσφαιρες & Αισθητηριακοί Κόσμοι με το εργαστήριο:
Περπατώντας ως αισθητηριακή μέθοδος: Αφηγηματικές προσεγγίσεις στην αστική εμπειρία
Πώς μπορεί το περπάτημα να λειτουργήσει ως μέθοδος παρατήρησης, αφήγησης και ερμηνείας της πόλης;
Μέσα από αισθητηριακές και αφηγηματικές προσεγγίσεις, το εργαστήριο διερευνά τους τρόπους με τους οποίους οι καθημερινές διαδρομές, οι ατμόσφαιρες, οι μνήμες και οι ιστορίες συμβάλλουν στη διαμόρφωση της αστικής εμπειρίας.
Ανυπομονώ να συμμετάσχω σε αυτή τη σημαντική διοργάνωση και να συναντήσω ανθρώπους που ενδιαφέρονται για τις σχέσεις σώματος, χώρου, αντίληψης και αφήγησης.

"The micro/world communities/microcosm of plants, fungi, bacteria, animal and insect life can teach us something if only we are prepared to listen. Our conceptual boundaries between 'us and them' need to be seen not as dividing walls, but as spaces of negotiation and development. The environment is not a 'machine to be fixed,' but a whole in which we humans are imbedded."

“Expanded aesthetics” can be found in everyday practices — not only in the architectural object itself.

Yesterday, at the conference of the Hellenic Society for Aesthetics at the School of Architecture of NTUA, the discussion turned once again to Kampos in Tinos — a place I have been researching for many years, where traces of this lived aesthetics remain vivid in the island’s traditionally inhabited villages, through everyday practices, memory, and people’s relationship with space.

In Smardakito, Tinos, beauty lies in simplicity.
Every structure has a purpose, every detail a meaning.
Built from local materials and shaped by daily life, this is architecture where function and memory become form.

I am especially happy to share that my article on Smardakito has recently been accepted for publication in Traditional Dwellings and Settlements Review by the International Association for the Study of Traditional Environments.
A small but meaningful recognition for a place of remarkable architectural and cultural significance.

Stone is not simply a material.
It is memory, weight, shelter, boundary, ground.
We build with it, lean against it, walk on it, live beside it for centuries — and still rarely ask what it teaches us.
Every surface holds a different time, a different texture of earth.
Stone reminds us that architecture begins long before design: with touch, gravity, patience, and the human need to belong somewhere.

New project.

Stone as structure.
Stone as memory.
Timber as a trace.
Light as material.

We are interested in the life of construction — where heaviness meets tenderness, and where architecture preserves the quiet intelligence of communities.

Avdos House, Tinos — 2021
The horizon as condition,
not only view.
A place of pause—
between body and landscape,
dwelling and seeing.
Quietly,
experience becomes continuous.
