Charilaos Mananedakis was born on the island of Crete and grew up in the Netherlands. From a young age his father took him along as a painter. He went on to study at Sint-Lucas, graduating “specialist of decoration and restoration”. One of his internships was at the archeological department in Crete. This inspired him to research antiquity and experiment with traditional methods, for applications in our modern day life. His main focus is to utilize natural materials for their unique properties such as, air-purification and light ionization providing a healthy environment.
