The Church of the Holy Trinity at the Sanctuary of Fatima, Portugal This sketch by Alexandros Tombazis depicts the interior of the vast church he built with local architect Paula Santos to accommodate the thousands of pilgrims that flock to Portugal's Sanctuary of Fatima each year. Religious buildings, he says, are among his favourite commissions. 'Functionality in churches plays a role, of course, but much less so than in other projects. One has to focus on the atmosphere.' The church was completed in 2007

Alexandros Tombazis可能已经进入他的第八个十年，但是正如我们在九月的问题中所展示的，希腊建筑师和生态先锋没有表现出放缓的迹象。他在Athens领导着一个60强的办公室，每年大约有20个实现和概念性项目。他拥有超过800个项目，其中约有300个，其中至少有110个奖项在比赛中获得，他是希腊最杰出和最成功的建筑设计师之一。然而，对Tombazis的不太了解是他作为一名艺术家的技巧。当他环游世界时，他不断地素描、绘画和拍照。他向我们展示了一系列充满活力的建筑图。

Helios 1, Greece A sketch of Tombazis 1970s Peloponnese retreat - the first house in Greece to use active solar technology. Set on a steep slope, the L-shaped house, with an open plan kitchen, living and dining area, and children's bedrooms accessible by a set of playful wooden ladders, was designed around the north-facing views. The brick structure, half set into the slope, has a wooden frame and partial lead cladding.

Helios 4, Greece  A sketch of Tombazis’ more recent house for his daughter’s family, also on the Peloponnese plot. Although it adheres to similar eco-friendly principles to the first – with solar panels and a solar chimney that forms part of a natural air circulation system – it follows a markedly different aesthetic. The exposed concrete, geometric composition is dominated by cascading, planted roofs. An advocate of a bespoke, site-specific design approach, Tombazis explains: ‘I don’t think an architect should design instantly recognisable projects. Every work needs to start from a blank page.’
