My proposal concerns the design of a cooperative olive grove in the village of Gonni in Larissa. There are several olives in the area but from the research I made I identified several problems in the production and disposal of the product. The aim of this project is to help solve these problems and at the same time propose a different way of organizing production in a collective way. Collective management does not only concern the production but overall the operation of the cooperative, and therefore requires labor control in the administration. The ultimate goal is for this project to be a different model of people's cooperation and to inspire for the values of equality and democracy. This is why it is required the program to contain extracurricular actions and attracts visitors. So the buildings I plan on are production and administration as well as commercial uses. The first two pieces are the main poles of the cooperative with everyday use and specific function. Industrial buildings concern the storage, maturation, processing and standardization of products. Apart from the offices there are workshops and a reading room in the administrative department. Commercial use spaces flow between the two above-mentioned buildings without hindering their independent operation. The uses included there may be defined or even changed at a specific time. So there is an olive museum, a canteen and a restaurant, amphitheater, shops and a gallery that can accommodate various uses. the movement of the vehicles takes place around the plot while the planting is given gives reference to the product of the cooperative and at the same time directs the movement of people and activities on the plot.
