ARCH POINTS stands as a "starting point" of an interactive presentation between Greek contemporary architects who live and work in Athens, Greece, and the public. Fifteen (15) arch studios open the doors of their creative spaces and welcome the public in order to share with us their past, current and upcoming projects, their passions and dreams, as well as their visions for urban Athens in the future. Seven Athenian neighborhoods become constitute the urban mosaic in which this year’s Arch Points will explore and share with the audience, through specially designed architectural guided tours and one unique urban game experience! Arch Points focuses on the small details of the city that once altered or re-used may change the format of the entire Athenian landscape!
