The Travel Project is a visual anthology of independent hotels, shaped by authorship and a deep sense of place.

Athens Kallithea FC, K-Studio and Arup have teamed up for a collaborative regeneration of the historic “El Paso” stadium, reimagining it as an open and inclusive civic ground for sport, culture and everyday life.
Building on the stadium’s strong identity and deep community roots, and the club’s ambition for sporting progression within a values-led framework, the proposal preserves the character of the existing structure while upgrading and expanding its facilities, capacity, and spatial performance.
Rather than introducing a radical transformation, the intervention amplifies and refines the site’s existing layers of public life, strengthening its connection to the neighbourhood and extending its role within the daily life of Kallithea.
At its core, the project positions the stadium as a continuously active civic landscape, deeply rooted in its community and gently evolved for a broader urban future.

We are pleased to share that Mandarin Oriental, Costa Navarino has been selected as a Finalist in the Architecture +Landscape category at the Architizer A+ Awards.
The project draws inspiration from the local agricultural tradition of the mandria – dry stone animal shelters, built by hand by farmers working the land. Formed from stones found on site, these humble structures follow the natural contours of the terrain, embodying a direct and unembellished relationship between architecture and landscape.
The project was developed in collaboration with Tombazis & Associates Architects, and you can cast your vote for it in the Popular Choice Award.
