The architectural practice Studio265 was founded in 2004 by a group of architects and civil engineers following a long and successful cooperation. It combines the studies of its members in very important European schools of architecture, such as in France and in Italy, with the reality and the experience gained in Greece over decades of passionate work. Collaborating together in Studio265 from our offices in Athens and in Paros island, we have undertaken and successfully completed various complex projects in Greece, with a focus on the Cyclades islands. Especially when set in a natural Mediterranean scenery, projects are approached by paying emphasis on the specific characteristics of the land as well as the unique beauty of the Greek landscape. Our activity encompasses architectural design and planning, engineering services, construction management and building works. This translates into a complete “one-stop shop”, hands-on approach to the new building project, which enables us to guarantee absolute quality and fidelity to the original design. Besides, the flexibility we display during the creative phase and most importantly during the construction process contributes to achieving great results in terms of aesthetics, feasibility, cost management and compliance. Through an open dialogue and a collaborative engagement with the client, we are always in the position to listen, adapt and find the right way, while maintaining the integrity of the design. Sustainability plays a major role in our conceptual model of architecture and we strongly believe in the necessity of promoting balance between human needs for an active yet healthy life and nature preservation. Material selection, water management, intelligent energy sources and technologies, non-invasive environmental impact solutions are constant part of our practice in designing and building contemporary, long living architectural objects.
