Abstract
The article is a report of an interview conducted by Sahar Taheri with Fiore Architects studio, the author of a project for an urban complex for welfare services in Thessaloniki. Embracing various public functions and green spaces, the project aims to serve as a landmark and meeting place, bridging the gap between the historical past of Toumba and the modern urban identity. The complex, the result of a collaborative workshop, hosts various facilities, prioritizing spatial autonomy and flexibility. A central pathway connects eight independent units, fostering interaction and serving as a dynamic public thoroughfare. The complex meets inclusion requirements, providing cultural and social assistance facilities and positioning itself as a community center.
