Architecture shaped through perception, context and construction

Adonis Papakirykos is an award-winning architect and designer based in Athens, working across architecture, interiors and construction. His practice draws upon extensive experience in both design and making, approaching each project as a continuous process from initial thought to built reality.

The practice is grounded in an understanding of how people experience space through their senses, while intellectual understanding and memory add further dimensions to that experience. The design process develops gradually, allowing place, purpose, material and construction to inform one another. Particular emphasis is placed on coherence, both within the work and in its relationship with its physical and cultural context, with an awareness of the resources involved in its making.
