Lighthouse

The primary architectural vision is to create a modern building that acts as a “Lighthouse”, highlighting the area and its location at the site of a future roundabout, which is part of the public redevelopment plan. The building is distinguished by diagonal cutouts in its seemingly solid form, adorned with reflective surfaces. The first cutout is located at the base of the building, creating a bold architectural gesture that enhances the central entrance, the plaza, and the outdoor area, ensuring a dynamic flow for pedestrians. The second prominent cutout is on the café level, exclusively for the building’s users, oriented towards Limassol Marina. This space features a semi-outdoor amphitheatrical design. The building’s crown is marked by a striking cutout on the top floor, where a unique meeting space is proposed. The development is located at the intersection of Alexandrias Street and Aktaia Odos, between the old and new ports, within the boundaries of the former industrial zone and just a short distance from the sea. This ambitious project integrates urban planning to create a private outdoor space open for public use, harmoniously linked to the surrounding public green areas. The proposed outdoor spaces aim to establish The Lighthouse as a new landmark for the area and a cornerstone for the future redevelopment of Aktaia Odos. Standing at a height of 81 metres, the building will feature 19 floors in total. The first six floors, along with the basement, will be dedicated to private parking. The remaining 13 floors are designed to the highest standards for office use, complemented by all necessary support facilities such as shared spaces, a café, and a gym.
The design embodies the essence of light and guidance, with carefully crafted cuts and folds in the façade.
