The office gfra architecture was founded in 2004 by Tasos Gousis, Joost Frijda and Eddie Roberts as a result of many years of cooperation in previous associations. Fotini Anagnostou becomes part of the team in 2007. Joost Frijda is Dutch and has received his degree from the Delft University of Technology. Tasos Gousis, Eddie Roberts, who has a Welsh background, as well as Fotini Anagnostou are graduates from the Athens Polytechnic.
The multinational background of the team makes them search for new ideas and forms in architecture, to give a 'European' spirit to their design. This has been recognized by the numerous publications and participations in exhibitions. At the same time they have a realistic approach and through close cooperation with the client and the consulting engineers, aim of the office is to maintain the quality of design and technology of architecture to a maximum.
The many specializations of the office include: housing, hotels, education, offices, cinema/theatre, retail, interior design, public urban/green spaces, re-use/restoration etc. Many projects are situated in the Athens region, but work is done all over Greece and abroad, such as Albania and Austria. Project responsibility includes both design and supervision, and can lead from the initial concept, through obtaining the building permit, to the possibility to organize the complete construction process.
