Boulouki stands out as a versatile collective comprising architects, engineers, and heritage professionals. Since its establishment in 2018, it has been committed to revitalizing traditional craftsmanship while promoting contemporary construction practices rooted in traditional knowledge and techniques.
Their acclaimed project, "Under the Landscape," launched in 2021, focuses on restoring a cobblestone pathway and two underground rainwater cisterns on Santorini. These elements are integral to the island's vernacular architecture and cultural landscape and embody the Cycladic spirit.
The jury praised Boulouki's efforts, citing its significant social, environmental, and economic impact. By championing social integration, utilizing local materials, and safeguarding both built and natural landscapes, Boulouki showcases a profound commitment to preserving Greece's architectural heritage.
In a bid to share their expertise, Boulouki is currently developing the first centre for research and training on heritage-building skills in Epirus. Housed in a former school building provided by local authorities, this initiative underscores Boulouki's dedication to nurturing traditional craftsmanship and fostering sustainable building practices.
