The interest of Dimitris Pikionis in vision and visual perception in relation to architecture is not merely theoretical but reflected in all his works. Pikionis' sketches for the Moraitis House represent a small stone house, consisting of two low, cubic masses with few openings, and a door and windows with arched lintels. Pikionis' project is a dream project. Pikionis' sketches were never abstract shapes but specific, crystal-clear, recognizable images. As with hieroglyphics, which may refer to something else just because they are specific and recognizable, Pikionis' shapes are not merely representative, but hide a latent content, "mysterious and ineffable", which they reveal through a composition of "ideograms". The architecture of Pikionis speaks to us about that which cannot be lexically articulated. What Pikionis represents, both in his drawings and the completed surfaces of his constructions, has often been described as a modern collage of stones, a bricolage of symbolic forms of an ancient universal tradition.
