Overview
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.
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.
Qualifications & Technical Skill Set
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.
