  • I was part of the creative team responsible for conceptualizing the overall proposal for the 2026 FIFA Fan Fest Houston, a 6 month project developed alongside other designers. The challenge was to align brand identity across each zone to be developed, giving the concept a cohesive narrative through ideas inspired by the city itself: ESPHERA, a dome where Space Center designed its own interior activation, and Houston Hall, a space that brought the city to life through iconic local phrases, art, food, and activations like the Rodeo Zone. After several rounds of feedback and approvals, we produced the final deliverables for each zone through to project completion.
