My motivation is, to design cohesive and meaningful visitor experiences.
I have over ten years’ experience working transdisciplinary between the worlds of communication design, visual identities, exhibition design, interiors, pop-ups and urban spaces.
Driven by my interest in new approaches to the built environment, and projects that reconsider heritage, narrative and place, I completed the M.A. in Narrative Environments at Central Saint Martins in London with distinction.
Through my practice designing highly narrative environments I work solo and collaboratively within creative teams providing narrative concepts, design, creative leadership and project–management. I have lived and worked in Arnhem, Rotterdam, New York and London and I am located in Berlin since 2016.

CLIENT VOICES
Nele Vos has already worked for us many times. In the METABOX project Nele has once again demonstrated her unique skills both as a strategic thinker and as a very experienced but innovative designer.
– Thomas Sevcik, Arthesia AG
Mrs. Vos designed our application for the Real Estate Manager Award and I am sure, that the extraordinary presentation of our SMARTments as a pop-up book, was one of the reasons for our win.

ON NARRATIVE ENVIRONMENTS
Narrative Environments responds to the growing need for multidisciplinary collaboration and critical, socially–engaged design. It addresses the demand for meaningful visitor experiences in cultural, commercial and community environments.
This encompasses heritage sites, museums, retail, travel and leisure destinations, urban public spaces, libraries, health and educational environments.
Increasingly, organisations want to communicate their stories through the physical environment. They may need to inform their communities; overcome social divides; develop their reputation; and increase visitor numbers or attract new audiences.
Narrative environments constitute a core part of “the global experience economy”. This addresses the desire for transformational encounters, providing opportunities for learning, discovery, social interaction and cohesion as well as the purchase of products and services.
