Despite the fact that the land of Greece went through a lot of influential changes and diversities in history, it has maintained its identity, character and strength. The Greek civilisation is well nourished and influential, beholds the core of the greatest philosophers which has shed light upon us across the Aegean and Ionian Sea, to the world by Land and Sea.

Plutarch a Greek philosopher once said “Fate leads him who follows it, and drags him who resist”. Human behaviour is well influenced by our decisions. This is respectively translated in a simple way, upward movement represents resistance due to the effort one makes and vice versa, with both ways leading to the same destination, both ways are the journey to the light house, the light house serving as the icon of hope, guidance, and faith. The journey through the lifestyle of the Greek civilisation and philosophy.

Axality and proportions deeply reflect on human perception and scale of spaces, this is reflected through centralising and connecting elements and nodes with respect to the relation between vertical and horizontal proportions on a 3-Dimensional perspective.

The project consists of a cultural park and a mix between research, arts and culture Center, while dealing with the project elements as one. In order to keep the project well-functioning, it is essential to keep the elements well integrated which therefore strengthen each other and reflect the complexity of its civilisation."
