Welcome to The Greek Foundation Volume 02 – an alternative itinerary for the booming urban culture. Marking the next chapter of our ongoing journey to delve deeper into the diverse realms of Greek creative expression, our second printed edition is an invitation to re-think how and where we live. Although ‘going offline’ has become part of our modern language, encouraging us to race to the suburbs, away from the hustle and bustle of the big metropolitan centers, we choose to stay here. Closer than we’d ever been before. We choose our cities. Pockets of greenery, state of art buildings, light-filled apartments, fresh pieds-à-terre, inspiring spots to hang out with a laptop, new technology, and a sense of innovation found inside the hidden working spaces of Greek creatives are now all gathered in 256 pages. Carefully researched and packed full of inspiring, original stories, our second print edition is a celebration of the bright side of life in the city. Challenging traditional notions of urban living and encouraging readers to reimagine cities as vibrant, sustainable, and inclusive spaces, Vol 02 emphasizes a collective effort towards creating a more livable, modern urban context to live -and breathe- in.
