The restoration of the listed residence on Perikleous Street in Nicosia concerns a historic traditional mansion located in the heart of old Nicosia.
The conservation and restoration study was undertaken by architect Eva Konstantinou, with the aim of preserving and highlighting the building’s traditional character after many years of disuse.
The design incorporated all requirements related to construction materials, restoration methods and specialised finishes, ensuring that the original structure and its authenticity were retained to the greatest possible extent.
The additions introduced to the building follow contemporary construction methods and materials, while remaining recognisable and reversible. Their design is based on clean, simple lines, allowing them to remain distinguishable from the traditional fabric without altering the integrity of the historic residence.
The result is a restoration project that respects the monument’s identity, reinforces its timeless character and gives new life to an important piece of Nicosia’s architectural heritage.
