χαρά /xaˈra/ noun, Greek — joy.
And, mostly, how I like to work.
Brand identityPackagingDigital designEnvironmental graphics
I design brand identities and the packaging they live on.
Eight years of graphic design and art direction in Athens — concept to press check. I work across identity, packaging, digital and environmental graphics, and I stay with a project until it is made: dielines, artwork, and the press check at the end.
Most recently at A&M Architects, before that art director at Sleed and packaging designer at Coco-Mat. A Bronze Effie along the way, and Gold at the Interiors Awards.
