Chris aniftos Designer and Artist
About Hi there! I am an NYC based architect and artist. I am heavily inspired by colorful abstract representations of light and space, as well as the capturing of ethereal moments within the spaces we share. I am currently working on my M.Arch at Pratt Institute having received my BFA in Architecture with a minor in Architectural History from the Savannah College of Art and Design. I love to create, and to make others experience the joy I get from expressing myself and creating through my works.
