The observation and investigation of landscapes that have been drastically transformed by anthropogenic factors were the triggering points of the present diploma thesis. The research focuses on the volcanic island called "Giali", which administratively belongs to Nisyros. There are two mining companies operating in Giali that mine its rocks. Focusing on its southwestern part, the contrast ofthewhite -manufactured- with the natural landscape seems like a living canvas that demonstrates man’s imposition on nature. Given the presence of the companies, the main concern was the way in which different programs can be introduced on the island, to keep it active even after the completion of the mining works. It was therefore considered appropriate to find a new scenario and it is proposed to utilize the geothermal energy of the island, through an architectural program, where energy production and the bathing element have the leading roles. The geothermal station of Giali is a heat hub that generates energy for the neighboring island of Nisyros, covering its electricity needs, while the discharged energy is consumed directly on Giali. This productive program coexists with bathing facilities, as different cultures use geothermal springs as places to meet up, be cleaned and relax. The proposal explores the experience of meeting the industrial character of the power plant, with the stimulating aura exuded by the baths, so the programs were not divided into different parts of the island, but they were placed at the left end of the open mine pit, at the intersection between natural and manufactured landscape. The proposal is compatible with the "spirit of the place" that acrobatizes between the dipoles natural-artificial, empty-complete, memory-oblivion, human scale-monumentality, highlighting its special atmosphere and stimulating the visitors’ interest.
