THE XASTEROS HOUSE Made from fibreglass and measuring 50m, the Xasteros House is something of a rarity. it is believed that no more than ten exambles were ever manufactured The patent for the design was registered in September 1969 for a company called Alta, which whom Nikolaos Xasteros collaborated. Between 1973 and 1978. he went on to produce them under his own name. Originally, the interior was divided into a sitting room, small kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. Some 15 years ago, one of the structures was discovered abandoned in a forest close to the seaside resort of Loutraki to the west of Athens. After the interior was gutted, the house was exhibited at the 2nd Athens Biennale in 2009 by the Greek architecture collective, Errands. Rather enigmatically, the group lost track of it soon after it was dismantled and its whereabouts today are unknown. Apart from the one at Terra Remota, only one other example is believed to exist for certain today. Located directly on the coast in Kalyvia Thorikou, it has been integrated into a larger structure and now sits on a platform to which it is linked via a staircase.
