About
Before you can build a shopping center, a restaurant, a theme park or a hotel you need an inspiring concept. To create these fantasy worlds rich with visual, enticing experiences, you need a dreamer. A creator. Someone called an “entertainment designer”. Kirk Axtell is that person.
Kirk was the Architectural Project Designer for Dreamworld Resort and Theme Park, a $1.5 billion dollar resort development in Shenyang/Fushun Peoples Republic of China. While at Dreamworld
he has been developing concept designs for a 400 room hotel and a 600 room hotel and spa which includes exclusive, high end commercial, mixed use retail, residential and entertainment zone. His responsibilities also included The Diamond Promenade. A 900 room themed hotel with mixed use retail and entertainment center and 5 major attraction lands. He also revived the layout plan for Magic River and Fairy Trails, an interactive walking show and boat ride.
Due to Everfashion Construction Company’s lack of experience in theme park development, Kirk established a training regime which assisted the Chinese architectural and engineering teams Design Institute to understand the process of theme park development and entertainment design which is so prevalent in the United States. This included clarification and introductions to “Show Control”, “Ride Control”, Show Action Equipment, Animation Function and Attractions.
Kirk has worked in China for over 4 years on multi-billion dollar projects involving theme park development and entertainment design.
