Mold Architects has renovated and converted the CBO Residence in Serifos, Greece.

This project concerns the complete renovation and conversion of a historic coffee house in the Chora of Serifos island into a family summer residence.

It is a two-story building made of load-bearing stonewalls that dates back to the 1920s.

The proposal transforms the main hall into a single open-space living area and the two small auxiliary spaces into two independent bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms.

The three-dimensional grid of steel bars spans οn the entire height of the space, producing a new, light appearance – in contrast to the heavy stone walls of the existing building.

This project has been longlisted in the residential interior category of Dezeen Awards 2024.
