BIG SEE Award 2026 🏆
We are proud to announce that Tella Thera has been awarded the BIG SEE Award 2026 in the category of Architectural Design & Hospitality.
This recognition reflects our vision of creating architecture that is deeply connected to landscape, sustainability, culture, and experience. Tella Thera was designed as a contemporary sanctuary where natural materials, light, and the spirit of Crete come together in harmony.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed to this journey — our collaborators, clients, and team who brought this project to life.

Last Saturday, Pieris.Architects crew traded blueprints for aprons at an unforgettable team-building event with Franke!
Things got very competitive as our dream teams entered full MasterChef mode — dramatic plating, questionable knife skills, secret “family recipes,” and enough laughter to season every dish.
Who knew architects could handle pressure and risotto?

A huge thank you to Franke for hosting such a fun-filled day of teamwork, creativity, and culinary chaos. Safe to say: no one went home hungry… or humble.

We are proud to share that Pieris.Architects has received two important distinctions at the Green Brand Awards 2026.

The first, in Green Leadership / Trailblazing Award, is the Silver Award—marking the first time an architectural practice has been recognised in the history of the institution. This distinction highlights the critical role architecture can play in reducing carbon footprint emissions. We followed TEHAN ABEE, a leading recycling company in Greece, and were recognised as the practice with the greatest impact in sustainability.

Our second distinction, in Green Event & Cultural Campaigns, also received the Silver Award. We followed the joint initiative by the Maria Tsakos and Ioannis Latsis Foundations, together with HELMEPA (Konstantakopoulos Foundation).

We sincerely thank all collaborators, partners, and sponsors who have supported us throughout this 50-year journey—and in bringing the exhibition “2nd Nature” to life.
