Open-Concept Box Abodes

The H.2 Residence by 314 Architecture Studio is One Modest Home

— June 4, 2012 — Art & Design
Located in the Golf of Glyfada area, the H.2 Residence by 314 Architecture Studio offers the city a more modern and fresh feel to their suburban environment. The home takes on the trend of open-concept where more light can enter so that less energy is used on lighting fixtures. At first, the house may seem to be one unit however, there is actually three different residences in this one home. Since the house by 314 Architecture Studio is an environmentally conscious, it has a roof garden that gives the home more personality. The earth inspires the colors in the home so there are a lot of browns and greens thus allowing for more relaxing feeling.

The design made by 314 Architecture Studio is made with the environment in mind. The house features an atrium that acts as an exit for hot air on summer days and allows light to travel to most of the house. The connection of the main building to the water allows for natural cooling. The ideas used to make this home make for one amazing summer house. However, the home also includes heated floors for those long cold winter nights. With these concepts, you get a house that is perfect for both winter and summertime.
