Hello!

My name is Carlos Enciso, an Art Director and multidisciplinary designer with a love for branding, illustration, animation, and 3D design. Outside of my core work, I’m always exploring new ways to create through photography, painting, clothing design, and toy making.

I’m always open to new work, collaborations, and creative opportunities!

let's chat :)

microsoft maps

Microsoft - Laundry

Objective

Create a stylized 3D visual system for Microsoft Maps that brought more emphasis to landmarks around the world, while adding more delight and personality to the app experience.

Role

Worked alongside a team of 3D artists to develop a visual style that felt playful, yet authentic to famous landmarks. Through exploration and trial and error, we tested different materials, proportions, and lighting approaches to refine a stylistic direction. In addition, we developed a template that would ensure all assets had the same scale, object base, shadows, and lighting set up.

Outcome

Created multiple sets of landmarks for different cities around the world, while also helping set up the infrastructure for a cohesive and scalable system. This allowed the visual style to be expanded across new locations by other artists while keeping the overall look consistent
