A white-painted space to be used as a canvas. Space units defined by wooden structures and mirror surfaces. FORMrelated Architecture Studio create ‘Project Space’ in the historical centre of Thessaloniki, an atelier or art space which can change many forms. The project won a Merit in the category Interior | Exhibition Spaces in GRAIL Awards 2024.
‘Project Space’ is an innovative space for creators and artists housed in a preserved building in Thessaloniki’s historic center.
The project’s main purpose is for the space to function as a canvas to be used as an atelier or art space accommodating various diverse events and art forms.
The space is painted white to serve as a background for all those activities and experiences.
The space is painted white to serve as a background for all those activities and experiences.
The floor plan is split into three units: the exhibition, the private space, and the amenities. The unit situated at the foremost area offers great spatial flexibility and is able to accommodate and adapt for different events and occasions.
Wooden structures, ‘boxes’ from plywood and mirrors are the two materials that define the uses without any strict limits or borders. The continuous reflections multiply the exhibition space and reinforce the elements of the historic building.
