Luma occupies the second and third floors of a contemporary residential building in Glyfada, where clean architectural lines, generous proportions and extensive glazing create a calm and light-filled living environment. Positioned within one of the Athens Riviera’s most established residential neighbourhoods, the maisonette has been designed to balance openness and privacy, with broad terraces extending the living spaces outward and reinforcing the connection between the interior and the surrounding environment.
The residence comprises 258 sqm (2,777 sq.ft.) of internal living space arranged across two levels connected by an internal staircase. The architecture emphasises volume and continuity, with double-height ceilings, carefully considered sightlines and a restrained palette of natural materials creating a sense of cohesion throughout. Floor-to-ceiling glazing allows daylight to move deep into the interiors, enhancing the feeling of openness across both levels.
The principal living spaces are arranged around a double-height reception area that forms the centre of the home. The scale of this space creates an immediate sense of volume, while large sliding openings establish a seamless relationship with the surrounding terraces. The layout has been carefully designed to allow the different living areas to connect naturally while maintaining a clear architectural rhythm. Throughout the day, changing light conditions bring subtle variation to the interiors, highlighting the simplicity of the materials and the proportions of the spaces.
A separate kitchen provides a more private and functional setting while remaining visually consistent with the overall design of the residence. Integrated elements and clean lines reinforce the architectural clarity that defines the property as a whole.
Accommodation is currently configured as four en-suite bedrooms, although the layout can be adapted to accommodate between three and five bedrooms according to future requirements. The private areas continue the same design language found throughout the residence, prioritising proportion, natural light and connection to the terraces. Several bedrooms open directly onto outdoor spaces, enhancing natural airflow and strengthening the relationship between the interior and exterior environments.
The wrap-around terraces form an integral part of the property rather than functioning as secondary outdoor areas. Extending around the residence on multiple sides, they increase the sense of openness while creating additional living space throughout the year. Deep overhangs and architectural shading elements contribute to comfort during the warmer months, while preserving the clean geometry of the building’s façade.
Designed to meet contemporary standards of efficiency and comfort, Luma carries an A+ energy efficiency rating and incorporates underfloor heating, smart home technology, an EV charging point, two underground parking spaces and a private storage room.
Located in Glyfada, the residence benefits from immediate access to the coastal character of the Athens Riviera while remaining closely connected to central Athens. The area combines established residential streets with a vibrant year-round atmosphere shaped by cafés, restaurants, boutiques and proximity to the sea. As the day draws to a close, the generous terraces and expansive glazing allow the changing light of the Riviera to become a natural extension of the living environment.
The property is currently under construction and is scheduled for completion in September 2026.
