about
In times of great haste, we dare to be slow. Not a mere shift in velocity but an altered state of being. We break cycles of distraction and destruction, opening deep chasms of reflection and space for energetic insight. Slowness defies conventions, embracing the imperfect, the strange and indigenous. Not the prettiest apple but the tastiest, the unaltered, the one that bends the branch.
Our Manifesto
At the heart of our work lies a simple yet profound belief: creativity is boundless, and the spaces we inhabit should reflect that freedom. We are a collective of thinkers, makers, and doers—united by a passion to create, collaborate, and push the limits of what is possible.
We believe in spaces as living entities, where design, art, and culture blend seamlessly to foster conversations that inspire, challenge, and evolve. Our spaces—Sympan, Piree, Lab Piree, and Gonia—are not mere backdrops to life; they are active participants in shaping experiences, stories, and connections.
We work within the raw, unrefined beauty of Piraeus’ industrial landscape, transforming forgotten corners of the city into vibrant hubs for creativity. From the bold transformations at Sympan to the eclectic charm of Gonia, and the cutting-edge design of Lab Piree, we create environments that reflect the soul of the city—dynamic, daring, and diverse.
Art and design are at the core of everything we do. We invite artists, designers, chefs, musicians, and creators from all disciplines to explore new possibilities, break boundaries, and express their visions. Our mission is to provide the spaces, the support, and the energy for that creativity to thrive.
We are not just creating spaces; we are curating experiences—a canvas for ideas that transcend traditional boundaries. From immersive exhibitions to experimental pop-ups, every moment at Piree, Sympan, Lab Piree, and Gonia is a chance to witness something new, unexpected, and extraordinary.
We are driven by the belief that collaboration fuels innovation, and the synergy between creators leads to powerful, transformative work. We nurture long-term relationships with our network of collaborators, guests, and visitors—creating a dynamic, ever-evolving community.
Our spaces are where history meets the future, where raw materials meet refined aesthetics, and where ideas meet execution. We celebrate the collision of urban grit and luxury, honoring the past while designing for tomorrow.
In everything we do, we stay true to our core values: authenticity, creativity, collaboration, and innovation. Our work is driven by an endless curiosity to discover, create, and shape the future of design, art, and culture.
Each neighborhood of the city for me has a different texture, atmospheric pressure, and emotional weight that transforms into a vibrant and eclectic journey, an urban illustration with which I can identify on many levels. In this idea, I savor the life of the bright streets, surrounded by a mist where each streetlight becomes a galaxy. The city stretches out like a universe before my eyes and becomes a continuous allegory of creation.
