Graphic Design at the hub of Creativity meets the Creative Hub
How is the visual identity designed for a new organization that aspires to be a benchmark for creativity, innovation, and technology?
AKTO’s Graphic Design department undertook the logo design for Creative Hub GR, the new Creative Hub for Innovation & Technology of EKOMED (Greek Film Centre, Audiovisual Media and Creation), as part of a competitive Real Work Project.
The RWP was attended by the members of the student community of BA (Hons) Graphic Design (2nd year) and Distance Learning Graphic Design (3rd year). Working on a real professional brief, they developed comprehensive visual identity proposals that combined strategic thinking, creativity, aesthetic consistency, and functionality, responding to the needs of a modern organization.
The proposal that won the 1st Prize belongs to Panagiota Grigoriadou, who was named the winner of the RWP. Commendations were awarded to: Michail Iliodromitis, Stefania Kitsopoulou, Anastasios Kounellis, Katianna Nomikou and Konstantinos Tsaknaki.
The announcement of the winners and the award ceremony took place within the framework of the Art & Design Show 2026, at the Athens Campus, by Renia Papathanasiou (Head of the Creative Hub for Innovation & Technology). In her address, she spoke with particularly laudatory comments about all the design proposals and the different approaches submitted to the competition.
The RWP was implemented under the guidance of academic team members Charis Karantzas and Konstantinos Miaris.
This specific Real Work Project is another example of AKTO’s educational philosophy, where university education is linked to the real needs of the market and the creative industry.
