Acropolis Park, Strovolos, Nicosia, 1993
competition entry
This large site, located in the centre of Nicosia, was originally an old quarry. Over the years, the city grew around this wasteland without any consideration for a future connection with the surrounding developments. Our design solution focused on re-connecting the existing town grid by creating linear and axial promenades with observatory structures dominating their connections and intersections. The park is landscaped with mounds and water features and the towers will become focal reference points in the city.
