A new border in lake Vegoritida: Winery design | Diploma thesis project by Ioanna Papaioannou

This diploma thesis project by Ioanna Papaioannou concerns the design of a winery in Lake Vegoritida, on the border of the settlement of Agios Panteleimonas. The new winery is part of the local network of wineries and of the winery zone of Northern Greece. The wider area has a rural character, but is also characterized by the element of tourism, due to its proximity to well-known poles of attraction: mountain range Voras, Nymfaio, Prespes, etc.

-text by the authors

The form of the new winery was not influenced by the architecture of the local wineries , as they are not interesting examples of architecture, they are just shells covering the basic functions of a winery. In other words, they follow the strategy of most Greek wineries: they are not attractive to the visitor. The wider area has a rural character , but is also characterized by the element of tourism , due to its proximity to well-known poles of attraction : mountain range Voras, Nymfaio, Prespes, etc.

In addition, it is part of a plateau surrounded by important mountain ranges (Vermio, Vitsi, Voras), so indirectly it is a boundary for these mountain ranges. Also, it is boundary for both neighboring lakes: the design field belongs to a thin strip of land that separates Lake Vegoritida from Lake Petron . The concept of the boundary , in combination with the virgin natural landscape that characterizes the area, played a decisive role in the design of the new winery .

A winery that will not compete with the landscape but will coexist harmoniously with it and will be an observatory for the visitor . Thus, the design field was treated as a surface , where the new design is a slit in it : the building as a boundary between the inner earth’s environment and the outer landscape .

Eventually, a metal roof emerges and stands above the natural landscape . The new winery geometrically represents the natural landscape with a flow that starts from the outside of the building and continues inside. The winery was developed linearly , in order to meet the preferred viewing angles of the landscape.

It was developed on two main levels , in order to satisfy the requirements of the winemaking process , but also to offer the visitor multiple levels of viewing the lake . Especially, the observatory added to the second level, offers the possibility of a global view of the landscape . The building program is complemented by the guesthouses and spaces dedicated to the visitor and the promotion of wine tourism : café / restaurant, wine tasting corners, etc.

The internal layout of the building follows the austerity of the outer shell . The influence of the liquid element characteristic of the natural landscape led to the separation of the basic internal functions with curves, pursuing internal flow .  

The main interior design factor is the visitor and his unobstructed visual contact with both the winemaking process and the landscape , so, the visitor can watch all the stages of winemaking having in his visual background the natural landscape, which is the only inner luxury.

Glorious Grapes: The world’s most striking wineries

Full bodied and rich in flavour: the world’s most architecturally impressive wineries

Palma de Mallorca, 7th of June 2017 – ‘Wine to me is passion. It’s family and friends. It’s warmth of heart and generosity of spirit. Wine is art. It’s culture. It’s the essence of civilization and the art of living.’ -Robert Mondavi.

The flavour, the colour the body and the sensation when the first droplet touches your tongue. Wine is one the delicacies in life that brings people together, it represents regions of our world and it is a piece of art, stored away for years and maturing over time. This article features some of the most important and interesting winery buildings recently completed around the world.

The flavours will change as you pass from one region to the other, crossing borders, seas and climates. Each variety of wine is influenced by the land the grapes are grown on, the ripeness of the fruit and of course the time it has been matured for, allowing it to develop additional layers of complexity.

Hundredooms the holiday rental search engine has chosen to not only focus on the body of the wine itself, but the spectacular wineries across the world where some of these iconic wines have been created. These magnificent wineries have been designed to overwhelm your senses, not only with their rich fruit flavours but also what you see.

About Hundredrooms Hundredrooms is an online comparison website of holiday homes and apartments. It was founded in early 2014 in response to the exponential increase in demand for this type of alternative accommodation. In a single search, Hundredrooms allows consumers to check and compare property prices on all leading vacation rental websites in a few seconds.

The Art of Winery Architecture

Unveiling the Art of Winery Design: Where Elegance Meets Viniculture

Wine, an elixir of pleasure, culture, and craftsmanship, has been celebrated for centuries. But beyond the tantalizing flavors and intoxicating aromas lies a hidden gem: the winery itself. Winery design plays a crucial role in creating an immersive experience that captures the essence of the wine, the land it hails from, and the artistry behind its creation. We love celebrating and delving into the fascinating world of winery design, the sustainable new buildings and exploring the elements that make wineries truly remarkable, elevating the wine tasting experience for our wineries most important people: their loyal fans.

Embracing Terroir: Integration with the Natural Landscape

Winery design begins with a deep appreciation for the surrounding environment. Architecture strives to seamlessly blend the winery with the natural landscape, ensuring a harmonious coexistence. Whether nestled amidst rolling vineyards, perched on a hilltop, or nestled in a valley, wineries embrace their terroir—the unique combination of soil, climate, and topography that gives each wine its distinct character. The design elements, such as the choice of materials, colors, and architectural forms, often reflect the natural beauty of the region, celebrating the connection between the land and the wine it produces.

The Dance of Architecture and Functionality

Winery design is a delicate balance between aesthetics and functionality. The architecture must not only be visually stunning but also accommodate the intricate winemaking process. From the fermentation and aging cellars to the barrel rooms and bottling lines, every aspect of the winemaking journey must be meticulously planned to ensure efficiency and precision. Clever layouts, optimized workflow, and state-of-the-art equipment all come together to create a seamless and efficient production environment that allows winemakers to craft their liquid masterpieces with finesse.

Capturing Elegance: Architectural Expressions

Winery design is a canvas for architectural creativity, where elegance and sophistication take center stage. From contemporary minimalism to rustic charm, winery buildings showcase a range of architectural styles. The choice of materials, such as stone, wood, and glass, adds depth and texture to the structure, evoking a sense of timeless beauty. Striking features like grand entrance gates, sweeping staircases, and awe-inspiring barrel vaults create a sense of grandeur and leave visitors in awe of the winery’s magnificence.

The Art of Wine Tasting: Designing Memorable Experiences

Wine tasting is not merely about sipping a glass of wine; it is a multisensory experience that engages all the senses. Winery design plays a pivotal role in creating spaces that enhance this experience. Tasting rooms are carefully designed to provide a welcoming ambiance, with soft lighting, comfortable seating areas, and panoramic views of the vineyards. Architectural details, such as high ceilings, exposed wooden beams, and natural materials, create a warm and inviting atmosphere, setting the stage for a truly immersive tasting journey. Some wineries even incorporate artwork and sculptures, further stimulating the visual senses and adding an artistic touch to the wine experience.

Sustainability in Winery Design: A Green Approach

With growing environmental consciousness, sustainability has become a crucial aspect of winery design. Many wineries incorporate eco-friendly practices, utilizing renewable energy sources, such as solar panels, and implementing water conservation strategies. Green roofs, rainwater harvesting systems, and natural ventilation techniques help reduce the winery’s carbon footprint. Sustainable winery design not only respects the environment but also aligns with the ethos of winemakers, who strive to preserve the land for future generations.

Winery design is an art form that harmonizes architectural creativity, functionality, and the true spirit of an architecture firm.

The thesis presents a research project in graphic design including the development of a symbol system that represents tastes of wine as consumer information. The thesis has three main chapters; design, theory and empirical foundation.

The design chapter clarifies the design concept and its evolution from a traditional standpoint to its present state in the international area of design research as design theory.

The theoretical chapter presents a map of concepts in order to explain problems and practical solutions in the design process. The concepts are based on the philosophical ideas of Ernst Cassirer and Ludwig Wittgenstein, and concern interpretation of sense information, symbols and signs, picture and image. The design of the symbol system concerns the experience of taste, as a translation from words to pictures.

The empirical chapter comprehends both a description of the design process and of the empirical research. The method used is prototyping with a reference group of branch experts. The empirical research has evaluated the possibility to interpret, learn, use and understand the symbol system. The method used is a survey with questionnaires to a group of wine consumers
