Born and raised in Crete, Theo Galliakis finished his Master’s degree in Architecture at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in 2018 with honours. Five years later, he obtained a second Master’s degree in Geo-Design, Design Academy Eindhoven, led by the duo FormaFantasma.

Based currently in both Greece and France, Theo Galliakis has worked for renowned offices like Kengo Kuma and Associates and Kizi Studio and his work spans a broad range of scales and typologies.

Galliakis’ work manifests the “simple expression of complex thought,” as Donald Judd once said. His approach emphasizes spirituality, light and locality, always mindful of human scale and proportion.
