What's your comment on the outburst of alter-egos and identities online? 
Diversity creates openness and magic things happens 

How would you define the era we live in?
Transcendent (searching, openness), decadent (luxury everywhere as an ideal, as marxism when i was a kid - consumption), sadness ( the earth's resources - transformed used changed, torture, domestic violence, genocide, rapes, child abuse), democracy (still existing but not ruling enough) , animalistic (the animals are tired of being used, killed and tortured) joyfulness (the right to enjoy life, to let time fly)

On the Silver Couch: Meletis Koropoulis

Creative director Meletis Koropoulis 


The story of your life in 140 characters: 
I was born in Athens 3 \ 10 \ 1987 and grew up in Vouliagmeni. In 2004 I lived in Lycabettus, high in Neapoli. The summer of 10 I traveled to Lisbon and 11 in NewYork. 


What are the rules for the perfect sexy man who has no money; 
Consistency and tolerance and compassion and courage. 


Why you re-opened the store while all stores around you are closing; 
Basically I did not open the store ... I opened the antenna, the pop-up shop was just for Christmas gifts and is the precursor to an e-shop we prepare.
