THE AREA

​

Kypseli, is the sixth district of the municipality of Athens, sitting on centre's northern recesses, it is residency's main station and point of reference.  It is one of the oldest residential areas of the modernistic movement that started in 1930’s in Athens. Kypseli was primarily occupied by the upper class and was as privileged due to its large size apartments, houses influenced by art deco and bauhaus and eclecticism.
