Ursulines Greek-French School, Marousi

The project refers to the renovation of the Ursulines Greek-French Elementary School building in Maroussi, which took place in the summer of 2024—the project aimed to highlight the building’s modern aesthetics and architectural potential. The new facilities harmoniously combine ergonomics, functionality, and safety for students, as the new spaces enhance their daily experience with a sense of comfort and warmth.

The architectural design for the offices offers a strong sense of simplicity and warmth. Natural materials and colors have been used to highlight the vitality of the space. At the same time, the spaces exude a sense of calm and a pleasant ambiance. The goal is to create a welcoming and enjoyable space for visitors and employees.

For the classrooms, the renovation focused on the students’ needs, ensuring plenty of natural light and fresh air. The new design takes into consideration the number of students in each class, maintaining practicality while at the same time integrating colorful and modern aesthetics that create an environment that encourages learning and creativity.
Finally, the library was renovated following innovative architectural design and is now a valuable area in the school, offering special cultural experiences. It was designed to house the school’s extensive book collection and meet student needs. The space features a small amphitheater for daily readings while reading nooks were also created for the children, offering them a place that promotes relaxation and concentration with their favorite book.

The renovation was completed successfully under a tight schedule, during the summer vacation. This proved the school’s ability to combine innovation and functionality without affecting the daily lives of staff and students.
