The Golden Line
This was a project completed in 12 weeks for our second year group project at Escape Studios BA for Video Games. Create a Bioshock London themed environment that felt like a DLC for one of the Bioshock games. I was nominated Art Director and the team consisted of:

Our main hall was inspired by lush and fancy art deco stations in both London and the USA, textures inspired by London Underground and Surbiton Station.
I worked on the main cafe building, cash register, sandwich displays, cups and saucers. 2d Art by Giulia and Bust by Kyran Roe. Chairs, coffee machine and lighting by Willow Sorour.
Some of the research and art bible pages for I put together for the Cafe area.
I was responsible for the foliage. Creating 5 variants of fern, a hydrangea and a climbing clematis plant for a spline.
The foliage was re-used in smaller pots on the balcony.
My Lion drinking fountains inspired by the Marylebone Lions in London made it into the scene. I started these as my specialism but re-topologised and textured them for the project.
