Mark Christou of Pearlfisher
Thursday, February 17th, 2011
Knowlton Hall | Ohio State University
With an uncanny ability to walk the fine line between maintaining brand recognition and making the look entirely fresh, Pearlfisher creates compelling, fearless, innovative brands.
Founded in 1992, Pearlfisher's refined hand taps into your spirit. Working with clients such as Coca-Cola, Absolut, Stella Artois, Waitrose, Green & Black's and Kraft (to name a few), they are recognized for their excellence virtually everywhere ? including over forty entries on the massive packaging design blog, The Dieline.
For nearly ten years, Mark Christou has worked his creative magic at packaging and branding powerhouse Pearlfisher. After leaping across the pond from London to New York in 2007, Mark quickly became one of the youngest Creative Directors around -- an acknowledgement of his talents both as a designer and as a team leader.
Known for being a highly imaginative and expressive brand designer, Mark approaches the creative process with great vision, passion and intuitive flair, believing that as a designer his role is to convey an experience, an emotion and fundamentally a strong sense of connection. And as a firm advocate of the less-is-more theory, his design style can be summarized as "simplistic yet bold."
Join CSCA on Thursday, February 17th as Mark Christou kicks off our 42nd season, teaching us that simple design can be the boldest kind.
