EXPERIENCES PEOPLE FEEL

MOMENTS PEOPLE NEVER FORGET

Events designed only for photos are getting scrolled past in hours.

Experiences designed for humans make moments legendary.

I  use  the  science  of  awe

to design stages and immersive EXPERIENCES

for festivals, music events, VENUES and brands.

Abstract design with colorful lines and shapes forming a heart and the word 'love' in a stylized font.
Lad Bible Group logo in black, white, and red text
Pixelated hotel logo with the words "hotel Charazac".
Colorful sign with the text 'Kendal Calling' surrounded by sunflowers, green leaves, and festival tents in the background.
Logo with the text '.MONEY 20/20' and the tagline 'An Ascential Company'.
Brewdog logo with a shield and dog silhouette

I do many things, but I'm only really doing one thing.

Two decades across tour production, music festivals, parties, expeditions, filmmaking, brand activations and immersive experience design. It felt chaotic. Until I realised what connected it all.

I create Awe.

Awe is one of the last human emotions to be rigorously scientifically studied.
Now proven to create trust, connection, belonging, and unforgettable memories.
It’s the first principle behind extraordinary human experiences.

Felt by all. Understood by few. Designed by even fewer.

That’s where I come in…
