About the Studio
Tsigaras Design Studio is an Athens-based multidisciplinary practice founded by Christos Tsigaras in 2012. Working across architecture, interior architecture, industrial and product design, project management, construction and renovation, the studio approaches each commission as a continuous process — from the first concept to final delivery.
Combining design clarity with extensive construction experience, the studio coordinates consultants, contractors, materials, cost and scheduling while protecting the original design intent at every stage. The result is work with a clear identity, shaped by precision, functionality and close attention to detail.

Christos Tsigaras
Founder & Lead Designer
Christos Tsigaras founded Tsigaras Design Studio in Athens in 2012, following sixteen years of collaboration with ISV Architects as Construction Manager. During this period, he gained extensive experience in the management, coordination and construction of complex architectural projects. This background shaped an approach that directly connects the initial concept with architectural detailing and final execution.
His work is defined by a deep understanding of the relationship between concept, material and construction. Functionality, precision and the continuous exploration of new materials and technologies are combined with a consistent pursuit of simplicity. His projects have been presented in exhibitions in Greece and internationally and have received recognition from major international architecture and design institutions.

Coordinating consultants, contractors, schedules and construction processes throughout every stage of the project. The role ensures that design decisions are translated accurately into the final result while maintaining control over quality, cost and timing.
Our Approach
Every project begins with a clear understanding of its context, purpose and practical requirements. Through research, dialogue and material exploration, the initial concept develops into precise spatial, technical and construction decisions.
The studio remains involved throughout the complete process — from concept development and detailed design to consultant coordination, project management, construction and final delivery. This continuity protects the original design intent while maintaining control over detail, material selection, construction quality, cost and scheduling.
