Speaker

Alexandra Daliani, was born and raised in Athens. She lived in Paris for five years, while completing her studies in architecture and working for various architecture firms. She received her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Αrchitecture from the École Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture de Paris la Villette (ENSAPLV). She also holds a specialization diploma in urban planning (DSA mention “architecture et projets urbains”) from ENSAPLV in collaboration with the École des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (EHESS) and the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA). Her research interests include the influence of politics in the evolution of urban areas. Before studying architecture, she studied Interior Design at the National Technological Institute in Athens, and Lithography and Graphic Design at the École Supérieure des Arts et Industries Graphiques Estienne (ESAIG). Alexandra has contributed to important projects such as the Yves Saint Laurent boutique in Milan and the renovation of the Galleries Lafayette in Marseille. Both of these projects were implemented while she was working for the architecture firm Moatti et Riviere in Paris. In 2013 she returned to Athens and became owner and founding partner of the architecture firm Creative Architects. Her background in interior design has shaped her philosophy of viewing each project as a unique piece of art that requires everything to be carefully designed, down to the smallest detail. The firm’s motto “We create unique” reflects perfectly this mentality. Alexandra is a passionate city biker, and loves exploring cities walking or cycling, to feel their vibe, sounds and smells and getting lost in art museums.
