profile

gkotsis serafimidou is an architecture practice founded by Christos Gkotsis and Elena Serafimidou. Both have followed architectural studies at Westminster University, London and postgraduate studies in Columbia University, New York. 

The office is located in Athens and has projects both in Greece and abroad. 

Projects include a wide range of typologies and scales, such as private residences, offices, professional practices and retails. With a definite relationship between architecture, interior design and objects, all projects investigate values such as minimum and essential. Building integrity, persistence on detail and ergonomics play a key role in the design process and the implementation of the project. An architectural language that remains strictly simple, communicates and explores contemporary aesthetics, but resists fashion and trends. Clients reflect the diversity of projects and include large multinational corporations, professionals and individuals.
