Project Overview
Hilton Mixed Use Douala, Cameroon
Project Overview As a key member of the design team, I played a pivotal role in the redevelopment of a conceptual direction for a project initially inspired by Cameroonian volcanic landscapes and local folklore. Based on client feedback, I assisted in refining the conceptual design to incorporate elements of calligraphy, cartography, and polished brass, while maintaining the desired ashen and earthy aesthetic. Key Responsibilities: Conceptual Refinement: Collaborated with the design team to reimagine the project's visual direction, aligning with client preferences and the desired atmosphere. Visualizations: Provided 3D visualizations using 3DS Max and VRay to effectively communicate the revised design concepts and ensure alignment with the client's vision. Team Coordination: Worked closely with the design team to ensure that the revised concepts were seamlessly integrated into the overall project design. Achievements: Successfully redeveloped the public areas to create a visually stunning and culturally relevant space. Utilized 3D visualizations to effectively communicate the design concepts to the client and stakeholders. Contributed to the creation of a unique and memorable design that reflects the local context and client's preferences. Visualizations: By combining my design expertise with a strong understanding of the client's requirements, I was able to deliver a visually impactful and successful project. This experience has further strengthened my skills in conceptual development, 3D visualization, and team collaboration.
