This diploma thesis attempts to redefine the contemporary concept of multi-residential living through a new model of collective housing, in which technology, nature, and humanity interact equally and complementarily.Based on the findings of the preceding research project, the multi-residential unit is conceived as a complex and multi-layered architectural system, where the design consciously integrates principles of ecological awareness, social coexistence, and digital connectivity in a clear and controlled manner.The unit is located in the southern section of Elliniko, at the edge of the metropolitan park. The northern side of the plot is connected to the coastline through a green corridor, while to the south and east, the complex borders pedestrian streets—among which the southern one functions as a main circulation artery. To the west lies the distribution center of Elliniko. The strategic placement of the unit within this urban condition allows for a dynamic relationship with the natural landscape, offering a point of transition between the built environment and the organic flow of the park and coastal zone.The composition draws inspiration from the eight pillars of smart multi-residential living, as established in the research work:sustainability, social cohesion, technological transparency, energy sensitivity, adaptability, security, interaction, and participation.
