STRATIS ALIGHIZAKIS

INDUSTRIAL PRODUCT DESIGNER 

​

I am a Product Designer with 3D printing tools at my disposal. My need for self expression is satisfied by Art and Design methodologies. Nevertheless design is more than just aesthetics but the process of thinking through the impact of our creations  on health and the environment which is a core aspect of my phylosophy as well as the nessesity to apply the right methods for a sustainable product life cycle. Ultimately I view my profession as an instrument to serve and improve our quality of life through personalised products.
