Costas Voyatzis - Associate Director - was born in Athens, Greece
in 1980, but is international at heart! After dabbling in an early
academic career in Meteorology at the Physics University of Athens,
his passion for design prevailed, and he switched his major to Interior
Design. In the search for a career to suit his immense curiosity
and thirst for design knowledge, Costas worked for seven years at
Greece’s leading interior design magazines. In his role as
stylist and trend forecaster, Costas began developing relationships
with many international designers and manufacturers, and was soon
recognised as a unique eye when it came to the new and the innovative.
As more of the design community sought to share his design finds,
Costas decided that he needed a platform to combine his loves of
graphic design, photography and exclusive design finds! YATZER
was created in January 2007, and his vision of creating a single,
high quality source of design information was realised. Costas still
personally edits each piece of content published on YATZER,
ensuring that his extraordinary style is ever present with the precious
support of his extraordinary Team! In April 2010, the Financial
Times listed Yatzer among the Best of the Best design sites internationally!
