DS-Architects, is an awarded Architecture and Design Studio, based in Athens, Greece, founded in 2020 by Dimitris Sagonas and Iosif Dakoronias-Marina, joining their effort and expertise.

A small, collaborative team of young and enthusiastic Architects, we deliver bespoke, high-end Architectural Design, emphasizing on quality and detail adapted to our values and the client’s needs.

Our projects range from small-scale to large-scale and include, among others, residential, hospitality, healthcare as well as office buildings.  

Architecture, regardless of scale, is one of the essential parts of everyday life, affecting the lives of the users of the buildings and contributing to the amelioration of the cities in which these structures reside. In this direction, we aim at designing well-thought buildings both in matter of design and functionality, constantly evaluating our work and finding ways to innovate in all aspects of the project. From concept to construction, from the general scheme to the smallest detail...

We want our buildings and spaces to stand as timeless pieces in an ever-changing world.
