Speira Santorini: Where Modern Architecture Meets Traditional Cycladic Spirit

This is how modern architecture can link to tradition. A locally-based architectural practice, Speira Santorini, has transformed an empty plot in the center of the sunset-famous village of Oia, in Santorini, into a hip open market by teaming up traditional architectural elements with modernist aesthetics. Minimalism is the key element to this "modern-day agora", made for travelers and locals wishing to shop and socialize in a clean-cut environment which is inspired by the past but keeps an eye to the eternal.
