The Kykladon Apartments have been designed to reflect the human personality traits of introversion (inward-focused and reserved) and extraversion (outward-focused and social), which as an architectural landing point were able to inform several subtle but important distinctions.
The Introvert was designed to put privacy and security first. It features a concealed entry door, as well as operable shutters that give the building the ability to retreat and literally shut out the outside world.
While the Introvert and the Extrovert may sound disparate, the apartments are united through their materials, creating a cohesive look and feel in the streetscape. The building’s smooth concrete finish complements its understated approach and its highly textured rough concrete finish complements its outwardly approach.
