Welcome to my page.

My name is George Probonas and I am a perfection-obsessed art director, graphic designer and illustrator. I have invested 20 years in advertising, working for international and local love brands, building my understanding of how to deliver commercially successful design which showcases the unique features of each product, service and concept. This has in turn led to distinction in Cannes and multiple award-winning works at Ermis, the Greek Advertising awards.

Through painstaking research, I focus on creating branding, packaging and illustration as different as each brand's attributes.

My view on life and work is that we never know enough, nor can we do well enough and that this is something we can only strive to achieve through hard work, experimentation and observation. That is what I offer to you if you consider working with me.

Hope you enjoy the work!
