Costas Voyatzis {Vo-yatzer} is the founder of Yatzer.com, now owned by Yatzerland Ltd and former Curator of the Art Shop at the Museum of Cycladic Art in Athens... Born in Piraeus, Greece, in 1980, he is an international at heart! After dabbling academically 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 far-reaching curiosity and thirst for design knowledge, Costas worked with a number of Greece’s leading interior design magazines for seven years and in his role as a stylist and trend forecaster, began developing relationships with many international designers and manufacturers, quickly becoming distinguished and acclaimed for his unique perspective on anything new and innovative. In January 2007, he created Yatzer.com thereby realising his vision of creating a single, high quality source of design information. In April 2011, Costas Voyatzis was named one of the 100 most influential people in the design industry by French heavyweight Architectural Digest. { photo by Dimitra Spiropoulou }
