Elena Varda

Interior Designer with a background in hospitality management and insurance. Iapproach design through analytical thinking and spatial clarity, creating functional, refined interiors centred on materiality, user experience, and sustainability. Experience in boutique hotel management has shaped my understanding of circulation, atmosphere and human behaviour in space.

The project reinterprets the archaeological museum as an immersive cultural experience. Inspired by the architectural language of Tadao Ando, the design combines monumentality, natural light, water, and landscape to create a contemporary setting that celebrates Cyprus’ archaeological heritage while encouraging exploration, learning, and social interaction.
