theme park design
Theme park design is a complex process that includes master planning, concept, storytelling, engineering, architecture, and design. It is employed for the development of new attractions and the extension or refurbishment of established parks.
A theme park design project is rooted in storytelling. The theme or narrative is usually defined early in the process of developing a park. The story or stories are then skillfully applied across the whole experience from attractions to scenography and landscaping, technology, and facilities. This process draws on the expertise of a wide range of specialists. These teams work together to develop an immersive experience for visitors.
An extensive list of specialists can be found in blooloop’s directory.
At the heart of a theme park design project is the choice of rides, their design, and their location. A theme park may include a selection of thrilling roller coasters, dark rides, and water rides alongside attractions such as drop towers, pendulums, bumper cars, and spin rides, to name just a few.
Theme park design also needs to consider the requirements of the park’s target demographic. A family park, for example, will require more family-friendly attractions, character shows, and play areas than an attraction designed for thrill-seekers.
The design of any new theme park project must ensure that it is as sustainable as possible. In addition, theme park designers need to take into account any site-specific ecological requirements. For instance, habitats, geological features, or flood plains. Practical aspects of the site, such as visitor circulation routes, service access, and facilities, must also be carefully considered.
