About
Twenty years,
Europe and Asia.
I ran a design consultancy in Hong Kong for seven years, then went back to building
my own products. I hold a doctorate in design and I have never worked out how to describe that without
sounding like an academic, which I am not.
Greek, based in the United Kingdom, moving between Athens, Hong Kong and London. I build small,
independent systems and I write about how interfaces make decisions on people's behalf.
