In an exclusive interview, Stelios Stylianides, Architect at CSS & Associates LLC, reflects on more than three decades of architectural practice, sharing how innovation, sustainability, and human-centered design have shaped over 1,000 projects across Cyprus. From landmark towers and cultural centers to restorations of historic buildings and modern residential developments, his work showcases the balance between functionality, aesthetics, and respect for the environment.
He highlights the importance of thoughtful urban planning, explaining why cities like Limassol need a measured approach to building heights, density, and green architecture to achieve sustainable growth. With a philosophy that architecture is both an art and a science, he emphasizes designing not just with the mind but also with the soul—creating spaces that respond to people’s needs while harmonizing with their surroundings.
Stelios also shares his perspective on the future of Cyprus’s built environment, where energy-efficient, eco-friendly projects are no longer optional but essential. His vision is clear: responsible, well-balanced development that respects heritage, embraces sustainability, and continues to elevate the quality of life for communities across the island.
