Interview with Vassilis Mylonadis

Many of the spaces that we live in and the objects that surround us, are not designed in a way to intrigue our emotions.

Design Legend Interview

26 April 2017

I studied product design in Art Center College of Design(Europe) and received my BS in Product Design in 1990.
After mu graduation I worked as a product designer in PHI Design in France where I was involved in numerous projects from a wide variety of fields.
In 1994 I established Mydesign Mylonadis and together with an extensive network of partners we have provided simple and functional solutions to clients who either manufacture consumer products or are in need of exhibition or interior design. This approach has been taken further to the design of finished products for the mass market.

The ability to be able to design from a pin to a yacht and exercise your mind and broaden your horizons and share this with other people is just beautiful.

I actually chose to be a designer. As a child I enjoyed scribbling objects and products. I believed I could one day build anything I designed but instead of a magic stick use a pencil.

I aim to be involved in different fields of design in order to see things from a different prism and hopefully do that extra leap every time I design something new.

Follow their passion, persevere, do not give up and believe the unbelievable.

I suppose they dream bigger and give up less easily. They have a gift of envisioning the future and what it will look like. They do not limit themselves to what they know but let themselves go beyond the unknown.

I believe good design adds quality in our every day lives.
If one wants to break the barriers and be a leader in their own field then they should invest in good design.

That’s why I love design. You can turn every new project into your dream project.

Probably an architect, it runs in the family.

Both, as innovative design can set trends and trends tend to inspire designers.

Very important, that is what good design is about. It’s an equilibrium between the above plus the inspiration.

I studied product design in Art Center College of Design(Europe) and received my BS in Product Design in 1990.
After mu graduation I worked as a product designer in PHI Design in France where I was involved in numerous projects from a wide variety of fields. In 1994 I established Mydesign Mylonadis.
As a child I enjoyed scribbling objects and products. I believed I could one day build anything I designed but instead of a magic stick use a pencil.

My vision is to design objects and spaces with the notion that they will make our everyday life more functional and fun. I founded Mydesign Mylonadis in 1994. Together with an extensive network of partners we have provided simple and functional solutions to clients who either manufacture consumer products or were in need of interior and exhibition design. This approach was taken further to the design of finished products for the mass market.

I aim to be involved in different fields of design in order to see things from a different prism and hopefully do that extra leap every time I design something new.

It was actually a high tech product at that time. An electronic water tab.

When I am bound by restrictions.

I am very concerned about functionality issues. I want my designs to be very practical and I always believe that every design should always tell its story.

I am feeling really grateful that I am able to interact with the consumers through my designs and watch their reactions once they use them. That is why designs that remain incomplete are a great disappointment.

Practicality, simplicity, humor, story telling.

Today more than ever a designer has immense responsibilities towards society and the environment. I believe that we need to move from a model of overconsumption to a more prudent direction. We do have the tools for that more than ever before and it is going to keep changing through technology. If you take for example the 3d printing revolution which is just starting, it is going to change our priorities by introducing customization and flexibility in the way we think and design.

I live in a country that in terms of cultural heritage has so much to teach us. I believe the balance, the simplicity and the humor that I seek in most my designs derive from that.
And there is always the sun and that unique light that infuse in their own way within the designs.

With mutual respect. Once you get that established sky is the limit.

Follow their passion, persevere, do not give up and believe the unbelievable.

An extensive network of partners that can support you at your journey to the top.
