on•entropy is a design studio established in 2009 in Athens and London with a focus on  metamorphosis, expanding from objects to space consciousness. Marble, an archetypal  Greek material, takes on an unconventional role in on•entropy's designs; it encapsulate  the contradiction of being heavy and compact and at the same time vulnerable, fragile, and  translucent. Its diverse character is the core of the studio’s founding mission: to  experiment with marble and its entropy, its potential for transformation, embracing its  inherent limitations. 

The result is the craftsmanship of intricate and delicate sculptures,  evolving its diachronic qualities in an imaginative and contemporary way. Created and run  by sisters Niki (NZ) and Zoe Moskofoglou (ZM), on•entropy is the fruit of a forty-year long,  family affair with marble in Greece. 
Niki is an architect with an academic training in design. Her work demonstrates an architectural detailing and instinct of how space and object can  surpass mere function. 
Zoe is a civil engineer with expertise in sustainable heritage. She cultivates her passion in the marriage of cultural and natural environment through  academic research in cultural landscapes. 
Niki and Zoe founded their design studio to reflect both  art and craft. Pushing the boundaries of marble, their work begins with the human  experience and an interaction with the senses; it demands contemplation.
