BRIEF
I have recently graduated from a 5-year course (recognized as a MSc), at the Department of Architecture Engineering, of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and I am presently working on my dissertation with the theme “Let’s go camping. Redesigning the AUTH University Camp, Poseidi, Halkidiki”. For this course I have already finished my research project with title: “Future habitation, imagination, or reality? Envisioning the future society through the “lens” of cinema.” and received a grade 10/10. I am interested in exploring new ways of designing, visiting new places and meeting people from around the word. Additionally, I participated in various summer-schools, programs, workshops and architecture educational visits with my university and international organizations, such as the MEDS (Meeting of Design Students) where I am currently the National Contact for Greece.
