Mirrored living is a residential building located in the northern suburbs of Athens. The building consists of 6 residences, 4 single floor apartments, 92 sqm each and 2 duplexes, 140 sqm each. The design principle applied to this project is the twin-apartment concept. The building’s design revolves around the idea of spaces mirrored in relation to the axis that is created by the central common space. This concept offers a sense of balance and symmetry and it maintains a clear focus on functionality.
The structure features clean, linear forms with balconies that extend outward. The minimalist facade is accentuated by expansive glass surfaces, allowing natural light to flood the interiors and creating a visual connection between the living spaces and the surrounding environment. The use of neutral materials, such as concrete and wood, enhances the overall aesthetic, providing a sophisticated yet approachable atmosphere.
