01 / Case StudyIberia — Open World Simulation
A continent rendered as a single, readable system.
Lead Level Designer on a 70 km² Iberian-inspired open world — orchestrating the spatial language across two principal cities, four biomes, and a road network that had to remain legible from above and meaningful at street level.
- Road system architecture & navigation readability
- Cross-biome blockout and macro composition
- Production-aware iteration with engineering & art
- Tooling alignment for a 120-person world team
- Scalable spatial systems & POI density curves

Taxi Life
City-scale driving simulation: traffic topology, district legibility, and pedestrian density curves tuned for atmospheric immersion.
Request case study03 / ApproachHow I Work
Systems thinking, applied to space.
01Principle
Spatial Logic
Levels read as systems before they read as scenes. Macro composition, sightlines and circulation negotiated at blockout, not after.
02Principle
Production Awareness
Design that respects engine constraints, streaming budgets, and the realities of cross-discipline pipelines. Beautiful when built — not just on paper.
03Principle
Team Alignment
Translating direction into shared spatial vocabulary across art, narrative, and engineering. Documentation that actually gets read.
04Principle
Living Worlds
Designing for emergence: density curves, traversal cadence, and the small rituals that turn geometry into a place worth inhabiting.
