The study concerns the restoration and the reformation of the Hebrew town-section of Barbouta in Veria, a unique model of closed triangular parish in Europe, aiming at its upgrade and presence in everyday life of the city.
Historical and urban elements of the city and the particular parish are recorded in the study, followed by the enlistment of all buildings in Barbouta, according to architecture, current condition, previous interventions and uses, initial and current. This information is documented in cards, for each building, and then is placed in regional plans, at a scale of 1:200, so that we have a complete view of the area.
The study includes four groups of designs. The first one concerns the imprinting of the region in the beginning of 1980s. In this case the plans where redesigned. The second group includes imprintings for the current condition, the third one includes documentation of the current condition and the last group includes the proposal itself.
The proposal consists of two parts. The first part concerns the parish as a whole and includes suggestions for the utilisation of the buildings, and refinement of the shared spaces. The second part includes the study of the restoration and reuse of specified buildings and the design of new buildings in empty lots.
