BOLD DEALS.
For the Deals sa rebranding we chose a direction that combined the brand’s solid corporate character with a modern minimalist approach in terms of visual allure. A sophisticated and bold logo enhances the company’s visibility and “sexiness”, while a Greek-inspired “d” highlights the brand’s connection to its country of origin. The black, red and white colors are the pillars of a color-coding strategy that captures the attention in a stimulating and engaging way without overriding the client’s business profile.

PRECIOUS CORAL
What if corals left the ocean and joined the land for a while? For Nidodileda SS22 “CORALLIUM” Collection we came up with a photoshoot concept that brings out the subtle sophistication of luxurious fabrics and pearl and stone embroideries, without trying too hard. By breathing new life into the brand’s core aesthetic, we enhance its gypset attitude and creatively redefine all those identity characteristics that make it awesome and alluring.

When Lucian told Icaromenippus the story of his trip to the Moon, no one could have guessed that approximately 2000 years later we would be making a calendar based on the extraordinary things he saw while he was away. Well, days, years and centuries go by, but surrealism never dies. A Saint of Athens x Lefteris Kontorousis
collaboration (illustrations Christos Kotsinis & papers Χαρτιά Περράκης), meant to survive the millennia to come.

RKTKTS
A modular visual identity with a versatile minimalist effect is the concept we came up with for prominent Athenian architecture agency RKTKTS. The logotype adapts to the size and form of each material, while all other elements (written or otherwise) follow the same agile design system, according to the needs each item may manifest. By using a grid as well as a stretching technique we managed to create a subtle aesthetic and functional bond with the nature of our client’s work (architecture), thus delivering a consistent body of corporate essentials.

GEVELLO NEL BLU / MYKONOS

GAVELLO nel blu, the jewelry shop that thinks it is a pool.
Cosmopolitan and picturesque places like Mykonos tend to trap themselves in a dipole of rigid tradition VS forced extravagance. Thankfully, emblematic Italian jewelry brand GAVELLO came up with a solution that transcends the island’s stereotypes with a creative aesthetic idea. GAVELLO nel blu by Saint of Athens and Dive Architects is a jewelry store within a pool, as in, a typical Cycladic store (as seen from the outside) designed to resemble a pool on the inside. Light blue tiles, beach balls, striped bolsters, lockers and a pool ladder on the wall create an oh-so familiar ambience and evoke an oblique summer feeling. Mirrors, cushions, display cases and display cones & cylinders (on which someone might even want to hang their towel) serve as practical elements as well as conceptual props that enhance the pool concept. A few square meters are enough for interior design to show its surreally ingenious side and for opulent products to acquire a whole new market context.

EAΡ / SPRING

Our latest work for The Bakers evokes spring’s beauty on an Easter box that reflects nature’s finest shapes, colors and feelings. Gustav Klimt’s body of work gave us the idea of a cheerful mosaic, representing our holiday mood and connecting us to the floral abundance of the Greek countryside. Dreamy packaging for a dreamy tsoureki!

SAINT OF ATHENS X DIMITRIS ECONOMIDES.
THE CUBIST EGG.

Inspired by Cubism and emblematic artists such as Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, we came up with the design of the new Dimitris Economides chocolate Easter egg. The pastritect’s delicate and delicious art meets the subversive visual traits of the movement and results in a paradoxical yet heartwarmingly beautiful depiction of a familiar face. After all, reality is a matter of perspective. The egg fits in a modern, cylindrical box of the same aesthetic, which ideally complements the upscale concept and delivers a lush and distinct holiday gift.
