The AROUDI consists of two separate buildings built in 2012 in the traditional village of Pyrgi on the island of Chios.

Chios is one of the most beautiful and largest islands of Greece with a rich cultural heritage. Chios is the place where the unique mastic gum is produced. Mastic which is known all over the world for its healing properties as well as its frequent use in recipes, is produced only in the southern part of the island, the so-called mastihohoria.
One of the most distinctive and vibrant villages of the island is Pyrgi. Pyrgi is the largest town in the municipality of Mastihohoria and it is located at the southernmost point of the island, 25km from the city center (chora). It is a very picturesque village that retains its medieval appearance. In the center of the town there is a medieval tower and that is why the town was named Pyrgi (pyrgos means tower in Greek). Apart from the tower Pyrgi stands out from the other villages in Chios because of the distinctive graffito technique used to decorate the exteriors of many of the buildings. It is based on plastering sand being applied to the wall, carefully painted white and then geometric shapes are scraped away. This technique was introduced by the Genovese.
