Greece is for Lovers is a product design studio established by Vasso Damkou, Thanos Karampatsos and Christina Kotsilelou. They've been designing and exhibiting throughout the world since 2006. Inspired by the stereotypical notion of what is widely held to be “Greek”; their designs comment on habitual activities and behavioral patterns both of the past and the present. Their studio is based at the foot of the Acropolis hill, in Athens.
