Born and raised in Greece, my designs capture my love for the delicate and undiscovered patterns that exist around us and cannot be seen with a naked eye. The brand brings to life the authenticity, the uniqueness and the wonderful complexity of everything that surround us using one of the most innovative human creations - the microscope. The dynamic shapes and colours of the designs result from the combination of these unseeable organic structures of nature and the geometric shapes of those man made instruments one needs to see them with. In this way it creatively and equally utilizes the factors “nature” and “man”, while at the same time, organically combines art with science, going beyond what is obvious at first sight. My academic background at the University of Brighton and Royal College of Art, as well as my working experience have been the base of my designing process and influence.
