Jury Captain
Mark Christou Creative Director at Pearlfisher For nearly 10 years, Mark Christou has worked his creative magic at packaging and branding powerhouse Pearlfisher. After leaping across the pond from London to New York in 2007, Mark quickly became one of the youngest creative directors around - a testament to his talents both as a designer and as a team leader. Known for being a highly imaginative and expressive brand designer, Mark approaches the creative process with great vision, passion and intuitive flair, believing that as a designer his role is to convey an experience, an emotion and fundamentally, a strong sense of connection. A firm advocate of the less-is-more school of thought, his work can be summarized as simple and bold.
