BIOGRAPHY

Lydia Gerakakis is a Greek designer who loves experimenting. For her design is liberating; allowing her the freedom of swapping hats, between researcher, art director, and strategist, whilst providing an opportunity to explore plenty of industries, creative or not. Lydia’s methodology relies on research in order to always remain authentic to content.

Lydia is currently working at Phantom, London.
