Athens suburbs & countryside in the 1930s
 

Dimitris Philippides

English Translation: Judy Giannakopoulou

This book records -exclusively, for the first time- the moden residential architecture that was built in the 1930s in suburbs and country sites around Athens, wherever it exists today, and in whatever condition.
Houses in the suburbs and countryside of the pre-war Athens, even though many of them have been lost or altered, often retain traces of their original construction.
These houses, so vulnerable and so frequently ignored, have preserved forms and typical details of the era in which they were built.
The selected series of photographs constitutes valuable evidence of an architectural treasure that could very soon cease to exist.

VOLOS
 

Then and Now

Aegli Dimoglou

English Translation: Judy Giannakopoulou

Volos, the seaport of central Greece built on an inlet of the Papasitikos Gulf, is presented in past and present photographs.
We can compare the city’s prosperity in the early 20th century, with its rapid financial growth and eclectic aesthetics, with its contemporary appearance.
