Alexandros N. Tombazis and Associates, Architects have
developed their professional philosophy around the saying of Mies van der Rohe,
less is more:
they believe that less is beautiful. Less in this instance implies that a conscious and well-judged
decision for the appropriate minimum in each design can produce architectural
beauty. This is reflected in the projects presented in this book.
The projects presented include private residences,
industrial complexes, educational institutions, civic endeavours, religious
architecture and care facilities: Tombazis and Associates, Architects excel at
working on widely divergent projects while treating each with wisdom, care and
meticulous attention to detail.
Features projects
of historical and cultural significance, such as the Archaeological Museums of
Delphi, Heracleion and Vergina, and the Church of the Most Holy Trinity at the
pilgrimage site of Fatima in Portugal. Each project comprises insightful and
intriguing architectural descriptions and beautiful colour photography.
Includes an extensive bibliography of Tombazis’ work.
