Portfolio - Immersive projection design Manchester, UK Surfaces: 3 walls + floor

Turning four blank surfaces into worlds you can step inside.

Wall 01← Move the projector light across the room →Wall 03

I design immersive educational environments for an interactive projection room at a specialist primary school - coordinated panoramic scenes across three walls and the floor, filled with objects pupils can touch, move and learn from.

An interactive projection room

Our school's room runs OmiBeam interactive projection software: three wall projections and a floor projection that respond to touch and movement. My role is the content - I design every scene, object and activity that appears on those surfaces.

This is an independent personal portfolio showcasing original content created for use with OmiBeam software in a school setting. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by OmiBeam.

Let's build something children will remember.

I'm interested in creative opportunities that bring together design, technology, physical spaces and meaningful experiences for children.

My process

Every environment moves through the same five stages - from curriculum research to standing in the room, testing how the finished world feels at child height.

HUGO USKANS - MANCHESTER, UK

About

Designer of worlds for very small explorers.

I'm Hugo Uskans, a graphic designer and teaching assistant working in a specialist primary school in Manchester, with a BA in Graphic Design from the University of Salford. My work sits where graphic design, immersive media, interactive projection and education meet.

At school, I independently design original visual content for an interactive projection room that runs OmiBeam software: connected panoramic environments across multiple walls, top-down floor projections, transparent interactive objects, animated elements and the educational activities built around them.

Each project means researching the topic, planning the environment, developing a consistent visual style, designing assets to the room's exact projection dimensions, preparing the interactive layer and testing the finished experience in the physical space.

I'm especially interested in work that brings together creativity, technology, physical spaces and meaningful experiences for children.
