Metaphor是一个在艺术、时尚和设计领域工作的创意人的中心,总部位于希腊雅典。Metaphor希望成为一个促进希腊年轻创作者的平台,发展一个与当地和国际观众对话的社区。

Metaphor is a hub for creatives working in the areas of art, fashion, and design, based in Athens, Greece. Metaphor aspires to become a platform that promotes young creatives from Greece, developing a community in dialogue with local and international audiences.

对于Metaphor的设计,PILA对空间的建议源于灵活性的概念,以创造一个灵活的环境,可以迅速从一个概念店转变为一个画廊和一个活动空间,同时保持一个独特的视觉识别,定义它。

For the design of Metaphor, PILA’s proposal for the space stems from the concept of flexibility, in order to create an agile environment that can swiftly transform from a concept store to a gallery to an event space while at the same time maintaining a unique visual identity that defines it.

该空间分两层开发,底层为咖啡酒吧餐厅,两层为展览和活动空间,第一层为办公空间。展览空间可以很容易地通过使用六个金属移动展示装置进行改造,既可以举办展览,展示艺术作品、产品,也可以展示Metaphor的创意团队将在该空间策划的艺术活动项目。

The space is developed on two levels, with a cafe-bar restaurant on the ground level, an exhibition and events space on both levels, and office spaces on the first one. The exhibition space can be easily transformed with the use of six metallic moving display installations either to host exhibitions and display works of art, products, or the program of artistic activities that will be programmed at the space by the creative team of Metaphor.

Metaphor每次为参观者提供独特的体验,这取决于所举办的活动和空间的配置,总能通过空间所散发的相同的创意氛围和能量找到。

Metaphor offers visitors a unique experience every time they visit the space, depending on the event that is hosted and the space’s configuration, always finding through the same creative atmosphere and energy that the space exudes.
