Kifisia Project 12 by Block722

Block722 was called upon to re-imagine and complete the construction of an existing concrete shell in Athens in order to transform it into two design-led, duplex homes, the Kifisia Project 12. The two units have been designed with great attention to detail, reflecting Block722’s signature approach, which blends natural materials, a sense of balance, and refined luxury.
One of the apartments occupies the raised and lower ground levels, spilling out into a long, landscaped rear garden. The second one sits on the two upper floors, expanding onto a roof terrace at the top and offering long views of the neighborhood and the Athenian cityscape beyond. A garage is located on the lower front side of the property. Working with the existing structure, the architects composed a geometric front and rear façade using a calculated grid of opaque and transparent sections, timber elements, and textured, dark plaster. The timber structure cleverly doubles as veranda railings.
The plastered surfaces were specially created by expert craftspeople to mirror the interior’s key colors and materials. Inside, the palette includes travertine stone, marble, and warm woods. Meticulously designed features such as the bathroom mirrors and sinks were custom-made for the project. The front border fence is also bespoke, a robust metal construction that at the same time feels as tactile and malleable as wood.
