Το όνομα 314 προέρχεται από τη μαθηματική σταθερά υπολογισμού της περιμέτρου του κύκλου π=3,14. Η αναφορά στην σταθερά π σχετίζεται με τη φιλοσοφική διάσταση της έννοιας του κύκλου. Βασικό χαρακτηριστικό της αρχιτεκτονικής που παράγει το Studio 314 πέρα από το σεβασμό προς τις περιβαλλοντικές, κοινωνιολογικές και προγραμματικές παραμέτρους της σύνθεσης είναι η δημιουργία ενός κελύφους, το όποιο προτρέπει το χρήστη να αφεθεί σε διεργασίες ονειροπόλησης και αφαίρεσης.
In 1969 a group of young architects and engineers started cooperating and created the technical company "Ch. Kouloukouris — D. Mertzios — G. Papathanasiou — TETRAKTYS G.P.". Over the following years the company gained recognition by carrying out important projects and various designs, standing out for their aesthetics and architectural character.
Constant development and specialization of the company in the sector of designs led to the separation of the particular qualifications. Within this new framework of specialization, the sector of architectural designs evolved into a new dynamic team under the name "Kouloukouns & Associates". In 2003 architect Alexandros Kouloukouris joined the team, adding a fresh perspective, especially to the sector of construction.
