Posted onEstimated reading time: 1 minute, 31 seconds
Please introduce yourself: I’m Alexis Mardapittas. I worked as a Designer at Webdezign for about 1yr? I’ve lost a lot of my memory since then.
Editors note: that was in fairness all the way back in 2003-2004.

Where are you a designer now?
I’m heading up a whole lot of different brands from Hong Kong right now where I’m a creative director for Leo Burnett. Some brands I look after globally, others regionally, others locally. These brands include Coca Cola, Greenpeace and Saab. In my work I also meet loads of interesting characters. Who can say they’ve kung fu fighted with Jackie Chan and his son?
Me! I can.
Tell us about a fun anecdote or a specific job you remember from your time at Webdezign?
Mike introduced me to all the local food in da hood.
What was your favourite lunch?
Lahore mmmm.
Editors note: mmmmm
What was the 1 single lesson you took away from your time at Webdezign?
That Mike was actually born bald.
Do you have an unforgettable moment from your time at Webdezign?
I always assumed that Mike was a registered sex offender. But he never touched me up. Go figure?
How did you find & choose Webdezign in the first place?
Mike is a cousin of a cousin.
Do you have any recommendations or suggestions for future interns/employees?
Expect to get your hands dirty. Your ideas matter as much as anyone’s, a good idea can come from anywhere.
Editors note: This does not mean we muck cow dung in the office, but you will get a voice and an opinion on design/solutions from day one. Or to use a phrase Mike likes, we will throw you straight into the deep end.
