Rafaella Maria Lakeridou

My lessons are interactive, discussion-based, and centred around exploration and creativity. I combine short lectures with group discussions, practical activities, and visual examples to make learning engaging and dynamic. Students are encouraged to share their ideas, question concepts, and apply theory to practice through design-based tasks and reflections.
Content is drawn from both historical and contemporary design, culture, and society, giving students a broad context for their own creative practice. Lessons often mix critical analysis with hands-on experimentation, so you not only learn about design but also learn through design.
With experience across design research and creative practice, I guide students to connect ideas, challenge assumptions, and develop independent thinking. My goal is to create a supportive environment where curiosity is encouraged, and every student feels confident exploring their own creative voice.
