This role ensures that the design complies with national codes and local planning rules, including specific architectural or archaeological requirements in protected areas.

The aim is to maintain the integrity of the original design while aligning it with Greek legal standards.

In Greece, all building permits must be submitted by a licensed local architect. If your home is designed by an architect abroad, the design must be reviewed, adapted, and submitted by a local professional — often referred to as the Liaison Architect.

The Liaison Architect works directly with your design team, reviewing the drawings, providing technical feedback, and preparing the submission for approval.

As Liaison Architect, we review your designer's drawings for regulatory compliance, add the required technical notes and organize the final architectural submission package.

We also represent the project before the architectural committee and the archaeological service (where applicable), securing design approval before the building permit application proceeds.

Consultations are billed at €90/hour, with a separate flat fee arranged for preparing the final submission materials, depending on the complexity of the design.
