An Eyewear Store Framed By A Floating Cube Courtyard
- Words
- Anna Dorothea Ker
Athens-based 314 Architecture Studio designed an eyewear store featuring a courtyard framed by a floating cube nestled between two exposed brick walls. Located in Chalkida on the Greek island of Euboea, the store is named C_29 / Optimist, and was designed with a gallery space in mind. Inside, white stone and concrete create a serene atmosphere, complemented by glass tables mirrors that aid the flow between exterior and interior.
