The present dissertation ¨Co-accommodation - operation in an installed hotel unit in the center of the city of Larissa is the result of a research that along the way filled me with knowledge, experiences and new friends.
My research in the center of Larissa testifies to the old glamor with the majestic hotels that are hidden in the web of the city.
Others in operations are still trying to cope with the points of the carts and others, well hidden behind their abandonment, are waiting for the moment when they will reopen. The years that have passed have shown that these majestic buildings with the numerous rooms in many cases are no longer profitable to be managed by their owners, who in most cases are more than two people.
The building under study is located in the center of Larissa and has been waiting for years. It is adapted to the elongated plot, hiding in it a capacity and energy.
Today's society is redefining the concept of regularity in living. The data and the needs have changed and the architect is called as never before to provide a solution to the new needs that arise at a fast pace.
The philosophy of co-habitation is strengthened by expecting in a society that strengthens the sense of cooperation for a common goal, the evolution of man at all levels. Cooperation is a skill that in Greece may have been pushed aside by giving priority to autonomy. An individuality that was cultivated to such an extent with the obvious results of today's society
The proposal in the building under study initially gives new life to the abandoned building, with respect to its mixed use and strengthening the new facilities with flexible and functional spaces, which are adapted and help in a pleasant stay of the tenant.
