It is building of late modernism, with most of the openings organized in frames on the central floors and overall, the building is governed by symmetry. However, the most interesting feature is the covering of the facades with decorative tiles, which is not found anywhere else in Athens. Also, there are restaurants-cafes on the ground floor, as Agii Theodori Square belongs to the newest city trends for coffee, food and drink.
We do not know much about this building, however its height and the fact that the entire plot has been covered, refers to the era of the military dictatorship (1967- 1974), which had deregulated the plot ratio and heights, resulting in buildings constructed completely anarchically and to the disadvantage of free spaces.
