Atlhetic and Cultural Park, Agia Paraskevi
The masterplan of the athletic and cultural park envisions a harmonious fusion of landscape and architecture.
A loop, composed of twin routes—one for cyclists and one for pedestrians—becomes the circulatory backbone of the park. To the south, the pedestrian path gracefully elevates into a bridge, marking the park’s primary entrance and framing a grand access to the sports field below.
The park is conceived as a dynamic urban environment that caters to a broad demographic, offering spaces that transcend their functional purposes to become hubs of social interaction.
