An iconic building hosting artistic activities and exhibitions, serving as a reference point for the contemporary cultural life of the Cyclades. Energy efficiency interventions are being implemented to enhance the building’s overall performance. The lighting system is upgraded, “smart” energy consumption monitoring systems are installed, and the building operates with improved energy efficiency, while fully preserving its architectural identity. The Annex now functions as a model cultural venue with a low energy footprint, setting an example for similar cultural infrastructures in Greece and Cyprus.
