An architect and professor of architecture at the University of Thessaly, his work centres around social aspects and social critique. He was strongly influenced in his quest for new forms of urban cohabitation by Antonio Negri and his concept of “singularities”. City residents are singularities that must live in shared spaces, which includes the soil (crops). “Plethodome” is a new building model for plethos (multitude) in a city in crisis like Athens.
