This project involves the reconstruction of a stone house in Chora, the main town of Serifos, originally developed on two independent floors. The goal was to create a single cohesive house by connecting the two floors internally without altering the building’s facades. In terms of layout, the bedroom and bathroom were placed on the ground floor, while the living room and kitchen were positioned on the first floor (which is also accessible from another street), thus reversing the original spatial arrangement. The materials used include pressed cement mortar, wood, iron, and reed.
