Michael Anastassiades

In 2007, Michael Anastassiades set up his eponymous design company Michael Anastassiades Ltd to produce his signature collection of designer lighting, contemporary furniture and tabletop accessories. The studio’s philosophy is to produce eclectic designs with individuality and a timeless appeal.

Positioned between fine art and design, Michael Anastassiades creates objects that are minimal, utilitarian and almost mundane, yet full of vitality one might not expect.

He launched his studio in 1994 to explore contemporary notions of culture and aesthetics through a combination of product, furniture and environmental design. The studio’s philosophy is a continuous search for eclecticism, individuality, and timeless qualities in design.

Michael Anastassiades trained as a civil engineer at London’s Imperial College of Science Technology and Medicine before taking a masters degree in industrial design at the Royal College of Art. He lives and works in London.
