The Lofos (Hill) Edison is a model residential complex in Pallini
that functioned as a Media Village in Athens 2004 Olympics.
The complex occupies an area of twelve hectares, eight of
which serve as public and private green spaces. It consists of
apartment buildings and houses, arranged around a central
garden.
The area is mainly autonomous since it includes a public park, a
playground, a HEALTH CLUB, water features, pergolas, sitting
areas, roads and walkways. Moreover, along with the hard
landscape elements and planting, the separation of the private
and public spaces is achieved.
The aim of the study has been to create a space fully
harmonized and integrated into the landscape of the region. The
materials and landscape formations together with the planting
create an environment that balances between aesthetics and
functionality. The design of green spaces is relative to the open
spaces' size, uses, road and path network and vistas.
Furthermore, provision is made for the recreational needs of the
residents by creating athletic spaces, walking and jogging paths
and recreation areas.
