Proposal for a library and an artists' hub in Theatre Vursodepsio


This project is a voluntary initiaitive and will be constructed with the contribution, of designers and builders. he main idea is to reuse material in a whole new concept and recycle our old furniture and stuff.

This is a box I proposed for the theatre Vursodepsio to accomodate a library and an artisits' collective inside a very interesting industrial building, in Athens.The brief demanded a low budget construction and the use of light, as the space lacks of natural lighting.

I chose polyester curved walls to allow the general lighting in the space, placed on a wooden construction that would work as a sitting or a studying surface inside the box. The rest of the elements will be made of recycled material, like wooden paletts, old furniture, grossery boxes, bottles and recycled fabrics.

Here are two proposals I made for the creation of a box that will host the Library and the artists' hub inside the space of "Vyrsodepseio" building










Big Facade


 Axonometric
























Book Selves for the Library (the selves could be a patchwork of selves and grossery boxes, or drawers from old furniture)


Here are some ideas of furniture we are going to create out of recycled material
