Philosophy
Iy Synapsis Architects is the office created by Ioanna Polymene and Yiannis Stamou. Within its scope is the creation of architecture that addresses the modern lifestyle of its users.
With experience in a wide range of building typologies, we provide high -level studies that meet the needs and expectations of each project. The main features of our architecture are the simplicity of volumes, the functionality of the spaces and the creation of buildings that respect the environment and the tradition.
Scientific training, constant updating of trends in design, materials and technology enable us to study and support each project from the stage of the overall design to the details of its implementation.
The creative process
The research and analysis of the specific features of each project lead to the search and selection of a separate idea that will work as the basis of the design.
The planning period is a dynamic process of further research, evolution and development of the idea, a creative evolutionary period during which, the project is analyzed and studied in every detail.
Each project is closely supported by the team at all stages of its implementation. The goal is for the end result to be an impeccably built building that reflects the idea through the implementation of the designs.
