The Fassianos Building in Athens, by Kyriakos Krokos (1941-1998), proved to be an experimental ground for the architectural visions and details that would later define his career. Few designs have ever transformed an otherwise banal building into such a radically different reality. Through his work, Kyriakos Krokos endowed architecture with a national conscience. This he achieved without imitating the past that had been his teacher.
