ALEXIS CHRISTODOULOU INTRODUCING MILOS
Inspired by the Cycladic architecture specific to the Greek islands and well-known for its simple and elegant shapes, Alexis created “MILOS”.
Alexis makes almost immediately a connection between the warmth and fluidity of the Greek island architecture and the futuristic aesthetic by using metal sheets to shape his product. The arches and the dome of the structure lead us directly to the island in the Aegean sea from which the item takes its name.
After several years of research and studies as a digital artist, creating amazing landscapes influenced by the Greek architecture, Alexis accepts Missana LAB challenge of going beyond the limits of the digital language to design his first handicraft product.
Alexis’ work plays with our memories involving us in an eternal summer offering us an atmosphere of peace and quietness.
