• Consider audience flow, interaction points, durability, and accessibility
• Revise designs based on internal, client, and fabrication feedback
• Maintain clean, organized design files throughout the project lifecycle
• Support quality control prior to fabrication and installation
Requirements & Skills
• Proven experience as a 3D Designer in experiential marketing or brand activations
• Strong portfolio demonstrating pop-ups, mobile tours, or immersive environments

• Experience creating elevations and presentation-quality renderings
