A man with short brown hair and a beard, wearing a black shirt, sits in a warmly lit indoor setting with blurred background.

I’m Michael McDonough, a world builder and storyteller working through 3D, animation, and experiential design. With a foundation in architecture and over 13 years of experience, I bring together spatial design, concept development, and visual storytelling to create immersive worlds and narrative-led experiences.

My work moves between built environments, speculative worlds, and character-driven stories, using design as a way to spark emotion and unlock imagination. I collaborate with global brands, organisations, and creative studios including Hogarth, WPP, Saatchi, Sotheby’s, OnePlus India, and HMD/Nokia to develop original visual experiences that push boundaries.
