HS2

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Working with New Territory, I led design visualization for the HS2 high-speed rail concept.Initial renders were used to align teams on form, materials, and intent. We then expanded the work into storytelling, adding people, motion, and environmental context to help the design feel lived-in and believable. Showing the train across varying landscapes and times of day helped communicate not just what the system looks like, but how it could realistically come to life.

3d Visualization

This first stage focused on translating industrial design data into clear, accurate 3D visuals. Working directly from CAD, we optimized and rebuilt geometry to create renders that faithfully represented the design.

The Human Experience

This stage focused on adding people and motion using AI tools to help the concept feel more tangible. The output was designed for pitching and exploration rather than final production.

Process + tools:

  • Image Edit: Nano Banana Pro

  • Upscale: Magnific

  • Video: Kling + Veo

Scenarios

The final stage explored the concept across different environments and lighting conditions, using AI to place the design into varied contexts. This helped broaden the narrative and show how the experience could exist across a range of scenarios.
