designboom steps inside aristides dallas architects' athens studio, where context shapes form
Briefly

Aristides Dallas Architects, based in Athens and founded in 2014 on the island of Tinos, melds the raw beauty of Greek islands with urban design. The firm centers its work on contextual sensitivity and bold, geometric forms. Founder Aristides Dallas emphasizes that buildings should not disrupt their surroundings but complement them. Drawing inspiration from both the Cycladic terrains and Athens' historical layers, Dallas' unique perspective shapes the studio's approach, innovatively bridging tradition and contemporary architectural expression in Greece.
A building should feel like an extension of its surroundings rather than a foreign object placed on top of it.
The city is about negotiating with the built environment, while the islands are about negotiating with nature itself.
Having one foot in each world constantly shifts my perspective.
The ambition to contribute meaningfully to the evolution of contemporary Greek architecture drives the studio's multidisciplinary team.
