APHASIA EXERCISES Illustrations 2012_ Cllient: G. Karamanlis Aphasia is an impairment of language ability. These are three set of exercises that were designed to help people with aphasia overcome their language disability. The illustrations are showing five subjects involved in 36 different actions. Using multiple combinations the speech therapist can work against diverse difficulties. They are purposely designed simple, black and white and realistic. They had to be as easy as possible to understand.

MIKRISKINI Logo and leaflet 2012_Client: Mikriskini “Mikri skini” is a theater group. The name means “small scene” and the logo [on the right] is trying to represent this notion by using the human figure logo in a big scale next to a black box. The logo looks like an old TV diagram commenting the contrast between TV and theater while it gives right away the message of show and spectacle involved. The leaflet [above] is presenting the rehearsal space of the group and. The left image is the front side, while the right one is the back of the leaflet.

HIBERNATION CD pack, concept, layout, design 2008_ Client: Interstellar Overdrive Graphic design of the album of the music group Interstellar Overdrive with the title “Hibernation”, that was released in 2008 in Greece from Studio II records. Above you can see the two posters promoting the release of the album and on the right the cover of the album. In the right page you can see the print on the CD itself on the top right corner and the back and front of the leaflet with the lyrics which folds in three parts. All the photos used are from a derelict neoclassical building that is in a sense in “hibernation” waiting to be restored and rehabilitated. The lyrics of each track are written inside each room of the building on the first floor plan. So someone can have a tour through the building while listening to the album.
