What I can see
This is a simpler version of eclecticism. The basic elements demostrating the Greekness of its architecture are the marble linings and the ceramic rosettes.
What I can't see
The architect (Vassilis Kouremenos) was a follower of the “rationalist purification” of classicism, that is, the adaptation of classicism to new conditions while maintaining its style.
