Alexandros Demetriades

Dual nationality: U.S/European



I was born in 1967 in Nicosia, Cyprus. In 1984 I moved with my family to the U.S where I finished High School. I attended the George Washington University in Washington D.C where I received a BA in Business and Economics and later graduated with an MBA in Finance and Investments. I spent a few years in the financial world before forming a cross-disciplinary design firm in 1996. I acted as the Creative Director designing and consulting on a wide range of projects including the design of museum spaces, exhibition design, interior design, architectural design, scenography and communication media as well designing for print and online digital applications. In most of the projects in which I was involved in I also acted as the project manager and client liaison. In 2005 I taught a course entitled Experiential Design at the Architectural Association in London and in 2009 my love for light motivated me to study cinematography at New York University.
