Cross Premiere & Afterparty
NYA East, Los Angeles
Event Eleven

Conceived as a stylized interpretation of Washington, D.C., the after-party environment referenced iconic neighborhood storefronts to define the space’s perimeter and organize seating and circulation.

Developed in close collaboration with fabrication partners, the project translated conceptual design and spatial intent into full-scale, buildable environments.

Motorola Razr Launch Party
Chelsea Factory, NYC
Event Eleven

Designed for the launch of the Motorola Razr, the event centered on a bold, tightly controlled color palette developed to complement the phone’s signature colorways. The environment combined graphic set pieces, integrated lighting, and custom-fabricated elements to create an immersive brand experience.

I served as a technical and spatial design lead, working closely with the production designer and fabrication partners to translate concept designs into buildable structures, with a focus on spatial planning, dimensional coordination, and fabrication detailing.

Shogun Premiere & After Party
The Academy Museum
Event Eleven

Supported the design process by translating the production designer’s concepts into illustrated environments for client presentations, clarifying scale, atmosphere, and narrative intent prior to fabrication.
