First Level Design

This was my first level design project, taking an initial 2D layout map from concept drawing into 3D using 3ds Max.

I wanted to design a post-apocalyptic town where nature has started reclaiming the built environment. Bringing in my background in landscape design, I focused on how trees and foliage would naturally group, spread, and take over ruined buildings and broken paths over time.

Landscape Integration: Used real-world plant and tree placement ideas to make the overgrown environment feel natural rather than randomly placed. 

World Building: Added broken roof sections, damaged walls, and abandoned vehicles to show the story of a forgotten town.
