Aristotelis Barakos
An honest thinker and a dedicated maker, Aristotelis Barakos is a product designer based in Athens, Greece, known for his meticulous, hands-on approach. He creates furniture, lighting, decorative items and other design objects, for both interior and outdoor spaces, that enhance environments visually and emotionally. Born in Munich in 1984 into a family of menswear tailors, he developed a sharp eye for detail early on. Moving to Athens at ten, he absorbed a blend of cultural influences that continue to shape his vision.
Initially studying physics, his passion for making led him into the world of design. He started his career with high-tech projects in Shenzhen and a biotechnology startup in San Francisco, before founding Studio Aristotelis Barakos in 2020. The studio was born from his desire to create honest, functional, and aesthetically timeless objects that elevate everyday life and resonate emotionally.
