Back in Gatzea Stone guest houses
October 6, 2017And here comes the moment to see finally a bit of decoration in the interior of those beautiful stone houses we are building in Pelion!
The first pictures are from the "light" refurbishment we did in the old house called "Erifili"
All the rest are from Thalia's stone house where a more radical renovation took place
So enjoy as i do!

And that's all for the moment!
See you soon (i hope)

residencial bookcase design & construction
August 7, 2017Our Friend Aggeliki who's a great local artist asked us to design & construct her home library
One of the issues was to place this construction in a long & narrow corridor of the appartment, so everything had to be comfortable
but also easy to use & of course beautiful to see it from the open plan living room & dining room
So here are the plans & some photos of the resault
Thank you Aggeliki!

The municipal Library of Aghialos, Volos
July 6, 2017Hello there!
This month, we've been chosen for the design and the woodworks construction for the municipal library of an area in the suburbs of Volos
Here is our first steps in the design proposal, as seen and accepted from the project supervisors
The Retouche Design proposal, by woodworkLAB.
June 6, 2017Here is a first attempt of the space design... still working on it
The Retouche, beauty studio
May 6, 2017Starting a new "beauty project" in Retouche!
Today i was very happy to hear that we've got this new project to renovate this beauty studio.
It's an old great appartment in the city center of Volos with a nice background in materials, but also with many things that sould change NOW
Here are some pics from my first contact with the site and also some reference pictures, to begin with a concept in my mind
some of a detail found on pinterest
great color palette (sourse: pinterest)
our chair in a theatrical performance!
March 30, 2017Our chair in a leading role in the performance "Imarme"
nice play and nice to see our work on stage
Gatzea, Pelion, guest houses
March 6, 2017It's Moday... What ever that means for most of the people...
Today we arranged a meeting at the site. People from almost all the specialties related to the construction of the building were there
Fortunately the weather begins to improve, because both Gatzea & especially Agios Georgios, are areas of Pelion that are usually "hit" by the bad weather...
So there we go & here are some quick results of the day!
Have a nice week!
woodwhite
February 3, 2017while thinking of a new series of furniture, on the occation of a new residencial project,
the first thing that came in my mind was the combination of the two favourite materials - colors:
white (glass or marble) & wood. But as always it's not enough. So, let's see what will come next.
For now oak wood, carrara marble & white glass for "woodwhite"
available also in white or green or black marble base

July 2, 20163 DAY MOTIVATION AT woodwork LAB. workshop & design courses
July 2, 2016woodwork LAB. is the place to learn how to develop your skills or to find out your talents
woodwork LAB. invites all those who are interested in developing their skills in design matters, composition, the study of a piece of furniture, or discover thei r talents around this activity. The workshop lasts three days - 15 hours and is the first in a series of seminars that will take place in our studio each time in a different time of year. This first workshop is organized in order to get to know all those steps to create a piece of furniture, from the thinking up situation till the implementation. From the possibilities of a simple pencil till the use of heavy-duty machinery, with the valuable assistance of experienced carpenters. The project involves the construction of an auxiliary table with artistic character which after the completion of the workshop will be yours! They will be given dimensions and materials (with proposed exclusive use of wood or derivatives without excluding other materials), that will be given to you during the period of submissions. Before the process of planning the participants will be informed with news around the world design, construction issues, influences, and materials for furniture and their use.

Paris 2015
January 21, 2015Our visit to Maison et Objet, Paris
Αpproximately two weeks after the really sad attack at the offices of the Parisian satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo (07.01.15)
we found ourselves in Paris. The truth is that it wasn't exactly what i was expecting from this visit.
There was a widespread melancholy on the streets which is the most natural emotional reaction to every single brutal action
in this planet... But apart from that (if you can just say that after what's written above), Paris is Paris
We woke up. We saw this thing above from our window... nothing else to say...
view from our window in Paris
Paul cafe, Paris
Breakfast at PAUL'S and then wandering around the city center.
next to the center Pompidou
We really appreciate street art.
Especially when it's combined with those beautiful Renaissance parisian buildings, the contradiction in unique!
view from galerie la fayette's toilets :)
as we were walking ahead we met galerie la fayette.
What a brutal & kitsch place to see/be!
The only thing that is worth is the breathtaking view from the last floor were the toilets are, as you can see in the picture above!

A short tribute to salone del mobile, Milan
Once you are there and after finding the "Negruzzi Family" you literally run to reach Zona Tortona.
And after that goes anything else. It's the feeling and the energy you take & you missed since last year.
All these people wandering with the same more or less interests with you.
Especially at a sunny day having a cup of creamy capuccino & planning your next visits...
Merci, parisian concept pop up store in Zona Tortona, full of Paola Navone's new patterns & objects
Then, you enter into those beautiful buildings full of stories and people
and you get inspired and a little bit of jealus by all those incredible istallations
Hay installation, Zona Tortona
e15 installation, Zona Tortona
On our walk we passed by e15 (one of my top furniture & lighting companies).
A really inspiring place. Simplicity & stylishness at its best!

Next stop, downtown Milan.
A panzerotto at Luini's with the rest of the visitors & the locals (as always),
a walk arround the city center in order to take some photos.
I'm always obcessed with the Italian buildings & doors!
LUINI panzerotti Via Santa Radegonda 16 (Via San Raffaele)
We had an amazing walk (many kilometers) & enjoyed alot every single step!
We took a break like the senior over there under the warm sun
& then we started again towards the Brera district!
opposite Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II near Teatro Alla Scala
Brera Design Diistrict
It's always "grande" when you walk in these narrow streets in Brera design district during the "isaloni del mobile".
Imagine this period where you can enter into beautiful buildings
that you've always wanted to see from the inside & never had the chance.
And that's what we did in our favourite Brera!
Event locations, showrooms, shops, temporary stores, offices and unconventional spaces,
were there for you to admire or get inspired by.
After checking all this super "Fuorisalone" showrooms we made a stop
at a little beautiful patisserie - cafe & tried some of the delicacies they we preparing along with a big cup of capuccino
(always a capuccino no matter what the time was... :)
just before our last stop in fabulous and authentic Milanese hangout STRAFhotel & bar behind Duomo.
After a couple of coctails with the aperitivo, back to the Negruzzi Family with a sweet lightheadedness.
Tomorrow is the big day for the fierra!
lighting proposal from Padiglione Stellite
Every year while visiting isaloni del mobile, we are trying to leave the best for last!
And usually this is the "Satellite Padiglione".
That means, that you are gonna see young people's thoughts, inspiraton, effort & proposal from all over the world.
Unconventional set ups, nice graphics, new forms & functions
