About
My name is Atharva, I am a concept designer, focused on creating immersive environments and experiences for themed entertainment and games. I've had a driving passion to create art for as long as I've known; I had always involved myself with different mediums of expression in my formative years, whether it be videography, comics, or music. When I learned about the world of concept art and experience design through the making of my favorite theme parks and games,I began to devote myself to my studies in the arts and design field to build my fundamentals for a career in the entertainment industry. This led me to the College for Creative Studies, from where I graduated in May 2026 with High Honors. I earned a BFA in Entertainment Arts with an emphasis on Concept Design, and was presented the prestigious Imre J. Molnar Award for Artistic Achievement.Telling stories and creating worlds rich with history and culture has always been at the forefront of my passions, and I strive to bring that into all of my work.
What if the Italian Renaissance never ended, and the greatest inventors and artisans of the era built their own prosperous city that blends Venetian culture with fantastic mechanical marvels? This project explores a theme park design inspired by Renaissance Italy, where guests experience a lively town built around the fusion of art, culture, and engineering.
