Concept 

This project consists of two parts. The first part concerns the identification and study of the construct of a traditional building in the village of Kalessa, Crete. The second part, is related to the formulating of a proposal for the restoration, maintenance and the reuse of the building.

Specifically, we were able to reach to a comprehensive proposal for the building's design and reuse based on the principles of architectural composition, through the identification of the damages and their causes, the study of building's repair and reinforcement methods, as well as the restoration of its damages.
The use of the new building, after the restoration will be wine taste house, cellar and wine shop.
