CONCEPTS

I create concept art and experience designs for immersive attractions, including theme park rides, shows, scare events, and experiential tourism. My work focuses on guest interaction, atmosphere, and storytelling, shaping experiences that feel cohesive, believable, and engaging.

Projects are developed through sketches, visual studies, models, and material exploration, working closely with clients and designers from early concept through to delivery. Designs are grounded in practical construction and technical feasibility, ensuring ideas translate seamlessly into real-world environments.

IDEAS YOU CAN STEP INTO

Step inside Dolan, an abandoned 80s record shop haunted by a powerful demon. One wrong move and you’re trapped on a cursed vinyl, now every neon-lit music video, every twisted hit, and every dance floor becomes your nightmare. Can you survive the beat, or will you become part of the record forever?

As part of my university degree, I completed a three-month project to develop a full visitor attraction, which I later presented to industry professionals from across the UK. As Lead Creative Designer, I oversaw all creative elements, including the resort’s themes, stories, attractions, layout, naming, marketing, branding, and visual identity.

ARACHNICONDA is a thrilling and adrenaline-pumping experience that combines the excitement of a scare maze with the captivating narrative of a scientific experiment gone wrong. It serves as a chilling reminder of the consequences of tampering with nature's delicate balance and the power of the untamed natural world.

Enter Tornado, the ultimate sensory scare maze. Twisting winds, flying debris, and total chaos engulf you as a small town is ripped apart. Feel the fury of nature like never before, can you survive the storm?
