KARALASOS OPERADAY ARCHITECTS DESIGN KLEA FINE BAKERY IN THESSALONIKI

Located in the ground floor of a 1930 listed building, upon the major historical city`s axis. The oddly elongate space is knowingly emphasized through a tenacious, legible though, sense of rhythm, provided by raw oak, 19th century`s “new gothic” trusses (familiar in period city`s buildings) patched with linear untreated black steel structures. 

 

The accented axial layout serves and fulfills the numerous and severe display`s demandings. The on-site preparation of oven-made products, becomes whimsically obvious, through the insertion of the episodic pavilion shape, resulting the basic roof structure. The gradual ceiling lowering, enhances the cutting-edge severity, ending up to the, inspired by Theo van Doesburg, glass composition.
