22 EUROVISION SONG CONTEST 2006 ATHENS GREECE Elias Ledakis, appointed Art Director & Set Designer, created one of the most spectacularly ambitious Eurovision sets ever. Right from the beginning his aim was to reflect the historical and modern diversity of Greek culture, architecture and philosophy by blending the ancient with the modern; Greek art and culture with technology; video with lighting and staging with people. Ledakis design echoed the architecture of the Greek amphitheatre whilst providing a state of the art video backdrop for each performance.

25 JUNIOR EUROVISION SONG CONTEST 2013 KYIV UKRAINE Blonde s Creative Team led by Elias Ledakis created the logo for JESC 2013 and also the stage design for the same event. Excerpt from Eurovision Junior web site interview of Ola Melzig Technical Director of JESC 2013 When asked about what he thinks about this year s stage design by Elias Ledakis, Ola said, I think it's brilliant! It s very rare that you can implement the ideals of a logotype into a real stage design as fundamentally as it is done in this year s production. Usually, the two are completely separated. This one works particularly well. Video : blonde@blonde.gr tel: fax: address: 61 garitou str chalandri athens greece
