RETROVERSE HOSTEL

OVERVIEW

Retroverse is a hostel in central Athens with a concept based on arcade games of the 90's.

Colors, vintage elements, neon taglines, & lots of fun corners create a unique atmosphere, and most likely our favorite project!

Retroverse hostel is located at Kaniggos Square to an old building of offices. It extends from the ground level from where the arcade journey begins until the seventh floor where you can face the 'final boss'

The main idea of the design is based on a funky retro interior concept where arcade games dominate at the common spaces. Retro aspects and materials such as colorful tiles, glass bricks creating a vibrant atmosphere that is also reflected through industrial aesthetics. Neon lighting provide a more funky and up to dated character for our backpackers visitors.

The construction on this project was technically the most challenging for our team. Special thanks to HELLO DESIGN, our graphic design partner, that created the branding identity & environmental graphics, and started the brainstorming on arcades based on neighboorhood's past.
