Stavros Niarchos Foundation - Athens, Greece

Italian architect Renzo Piano has designed this major new park, library and theatre complex in Athens, following one of the largest donations for a cultural building project in history. 

Located in the Kallithea district, the huge Cultural Centre creates new homes for the National Library of Greece and the Greek National Opera. 

The new sloping park, planted with indigenous Greek plants to designs by New York landscape designer Deborah Nevins, forms the roof of the opera house and library.
