Foreground is partnering with a leading experiential design and exhibitions firm to appoint a Concept Creator & 3D Designer for their Riyadh-based team.

This role is designed for a highly specific profile: a professional who combines strong conceptual thinking, spatial design expertise, and hands-on execution experience within exhibitions, large-scale events, or immersive brand environments.

The successful candidate will demonstrate architectural thinking, narrative-driven concepts, and a clear understanding of real-world build and production constraints.

Role Overview

The Concept Creator & 3D Designer will play a central role in shaping immersive, story-led physical experiences, translating abstract briefs into buildable, high-impact environments.

Working closely with creative, technical, and production teams, this individual will lead concept development while ensuring alignment with spatial logic, materials, budgets, and timelines.

Key Responsibilities

Concept Development & Creative Direction

• Lead the development of strong experiential concepts for exhibitions, brand activations, and large-scale events.
• Translate client objectives into clear spatial narratives and visitor journeys.
• Create concept decks, mood boards, and visual storytelling frameworks that articulate design intent.
• Ensure concepts balance creativity, functionality, and guest experience.

3D Design & Spatial Execution

• Produce high-quality 3D designs and visualisations reflecting scale, materials, lighting, and spatial flow.
• Design exhibition stands, installations, scenography, and temporary architectural structures.
• Collaborate with technical and production teams to ensure concepts are feasible and executable.
• Support the development of design packages aligned with fabrication and build requirements.

Technical & Production Alignment

• Contribute to identifying practical technical solutions that support the creative vision.
• Coordinate with suppliers, fabricators, and contractors on materials, finishes, and detailing.
• Maintain design integrity throughout production and on-site implementation phases.
• Clearly communicate constraints, opportunities, and risks related to venue, timeline, and budget.

Stakeholder & Project Collaboration

• Work closely with internal teams and external partners across all project stages.
• Support project planning through design alignment with schedules and budgets.
• Ensure consistency and quality across all design outputs.

Candidate Profile

This opportunity is highly selective. Candidates should demonstrate:

• Up to 5 years of experience in experiential design, exhibition design, event design, or interior architecture.
• Proven experience delivering large-scale, premium physical experiences from concept to execution.
• Strong foundation in interior architecture and spatial design, not surface-level styling.
• Hands-on exposure to fabrication, materials, lighting, and temporary structures.
• Experience working on projects in the Middle East is strongly preferred.

Technical Skill Set

• Advanced proficiency in 3D design and modelling tools (SketchUp, 3ds Max, Rhino, or equivalent).
• Strong command of Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign).
• Ability to produce presentation-ready concept decks and visuals.
• Solid understanding of construction logic, materials, and on-site execution processes.
