My very own Stelios Kazantzidis... My Baba ❤️
The voice I grew up with, the songs I listened to, and absolutely love today.
Growing up, there would always be music in our home, in the car, and anywhere we would find ourselves. My dad and his bouzouki. When I hear him sing, I can feel the emotion, the expression, the joy, and the pain.
I remember singing with him and having our own jam sessions whilst growing up.. Something we still do from time to time (especially in the vans when we're both together). So many core memories.
It's safe to say, that my love for Greek Music, and Greek Dance is because of this man. It's like a heartbeat that syncs with the rhythm of my soul. It fills me with emotions that words alone can not capture, lifting me in moments of joy and comforting me in times of sorrow.
Happy Fathers' Day Baba 🤍 to the man who has taught me, loved me, who has my back always, by my side through all of life's trials, and sings with me through it all.

ΔΕΝ ΘΑ ΞΑΝ'ΑΓΑΠΗΣΩ - ΣΤΕΛΙΟΣ ΚΑΖΑΝΤΖΙΔΗΣ
My share of joy
Το μερτικό μου απ' τη χαρά
others have taken it from me
μου το 'χουν πάρει άλλοι
because I had clean hands
γιατί είχα χέρια καθαρά
and a big heart
και μια καρδιά μεγάλη
Oh god, the second time
Θεέ μου τη δεύτερη φορά
where I will come to live
που θα 'ρθω για να ζήσω
as much as the heart longs for
όσο η καρδιά κι αν λαχταρά
I will never love again
δε θα ξαν' αγαπήσω
Like a sea-dart schooner
Σαν θαλασσόδαρτο σκαρί
like a broken rock
σαν βράχος ρημαγμένος
I came as a stranger to life
ήρθα σαν ξένος στη ζωή
and I leave again a stranger
και ξα
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABA MOU ❤️
"Μόνο εγώ και εσύ"...
My baba, my buddy, my best friend, my business partner, my mentor, my rock, my strength, and the one that gets me through it all. Wishing you an abundance of Joy, Good Health, and many special years to come ✨️🙏🏻
Another year around the sun, and as each year goes by, my heart is filled with more and more gratitude, and I thank God every day that you're here with me on this journey called life.
Your unwavering support, belief in me, boundless wisdom, and unconditional love have been the foundation of my success and personal growth. You’ve shown me the true meaning of strength, willpower, and compassion.
As I get older, I realise more and more - the lessons you have taught me and the values you have instilled in me over time... life lessons, business lessons, and everything in between. And I'll forever carry them with me.
As we celebrate you today (this legend), I reflect on all the amazing memories we’ve created and how far we have come - especially with LLS. From telling you... "trust me baba... trust me, it'll work" about my ideas, and the business - and you believing in me, investing in me (and the ideas), building and battling every day to turn it into the success that it is... it was just you and me (μόνο εγώ και εσύ) a powerful force with a goal. It's truly undescribable. What a Journey!
Here’s to a year (and many more) ahead filled with more happy moments and memories to be created. Happy Birthday, Baba Mou! Thank you for being the incredible man and father that you are.
Να τα εκατοστήσεις ❤️
Your Demetra xx
You'll always find me sitting quietly somewhere with a pen and sketch pad drawing, especially after an in-depth meeting or thorough discussions.
As an Architectural and Interior designer by trade, with over 15 years of experience in design, architecture, interior, and event design, drawing is my sanctuary.... It's where I bridge the gap between imagination and reality.
It isn't just a personal passion; it's an invaluable tool for communication, as well as bringing abstract ideas and concepts to life. Whether I'm sketching out event layouts or imagining interior designs, drawing has become my go-to tool for expressing and refining my vision.
Drawing plays such an essential role in conveying concepts for several reasons:
I find that drawing tends to capture attention more effectively than text... It taps into the brain's visual processing power, making the conveyed concept more engaging, understandable, and memorable.
It allows for the expression of ideas visually, which can be more immediate and impactful than verbal or written descriptions. Complex ideas can be broken down and simplified through drawings, making them easier to understand.
When working on event and interior design projects, drawing plays an essential role in integrating spatial elements into my concepts. It becomes an indispensable tool for incorporating the surrounding space, visualising how different elements will interact with the environment, and ensuring that my designs are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and practical.

REVEAL ✨️
Wedding of Chris + Irini Katris, and Christening of their beautiful baby Iliana ✨️
04•06•2023
We had the fastest turnaround (less than an hour) and we were able to exceed all expectations. What a team!
Irini and Chris came to us with a vision of an enchanted garden with butterflies being a focus. Both Irini and Chris had full faith in what @demetraalexdesign could do, and allowed her to take the reigns with the design and come up with something outside of the box. Outside of the typical butterfly ornaments or cut-outs - considering this wasn't just a Christening, it was a wedding as well.
@demetraalexdesign created butterfly wings with her signature design of mesh customised with an ombre effect to add a soft and elegant feel amongst the florals, suitable for a wedding and Christening. Adding candlelight, and chandeliers along with real moss and our real looking artificial florals, It's safe to say that we left a lasting impression on our couple and their guests.
This right here is why we do what we do, and why we are good at what we do. We have beautiful clients that have full faith in our abilities, and trust the process with us, and know that we will deliver above and beyond. And right here, after the stress of meeting a deadline is over, we are able to see and feel the raw emotion, the gratefulness, and sheer joy. And celebrate with our clients.
They say, do something you love, and you'll never work a day in your life! We love what we do, and the people that we meet along the way. Truly #blessed and #grateful
