Athens, Greece / Working internationally

I’m Lito.

Creative direction, product development and brand storytelling

Objects, people, and the things between them.

I work across creative direction, product development and brand communications. Over five years at Crini & Sophia, from 2021 to July 2026, I developed products and materials, directed campaigns and coordinated creative production with teams, artisans and manufacturers.

I’m based in Athens and work internationally, following ideas from the first reference through sampling and production.

Around the table

Food is at the centre of how I think about objects and space. I cook to bring people together and create tables around the gestures of sharing—serving, passing plates and conversation. This personal practice informs my creative work, helping me build settings that feel generous, lived-in and human.

Five years of making things happen.

Crini & Sophia

My experience spans campaigns, shoot production, product and material development, sourcing, sampling and brand communications.

I coordinate creative teams, artisans and manufacturers through briefs, budgets, schedules, technical refinement, quality review and delivery.
