Entropika is a design lab operating in the intersection of art, design and technology. We design experiences that challenge notions of spatiality, participation and play. We employ representation, simulation and open-ended design to articulate our vision of an interconnected, material and digital culture. Our universe is inhabited by digital craft, biological structures, homemade electronics, tactile spaces and knitted architectures. From large scale installations in public space, to interactive furniture, paper electronics and learning kits, we invite people to take part in the experience, experiment and play.
ABOUT
Entropika was founded in 2014 by Artemis Papageorgiou, a multimedia artist and designer with expertise on small scale architecture and interaction design. To bring interdisciplinary projects to life we collaborate with creative technologists, game designers and craftspeople. After an intensive year at the Open Design School of Matera, a TEDx talk and two years of focusing on the local culture of Sardinia, Entropika is now starting a new trajectory, embedding the experiences and the knowledges acquired to bring new projects to life. Stay tuned, get in touch.
