Restoration of a 19thC Neoclassical building in Exarcheia, Athens


This project focuses on the restoration of a listed neoclassical building in the Exarchia district of Athens, an example of early 20th-century urban architecture. During the process, painted ceilings and ceiling murals of exceptional artistic and decorative value were uncovered and preserved.

Floral and geometric motifs, decorative borders, and patinated surfaces were revealed, reflecting the craftsmanship and aesthetic richness of the era.

The intervention was carried out in close collaboration with professional art conservators, aiming to highlight and preserve the building’s original painted features. The restoration respected the building’s original morphology and adapted it for new use, enhancing its cultural and architectural significance.
