ELISA BEKIESCH

I'm an experienced Designer with a demonstrated history of working in the design & planning industry. Skilled in AutoCAD, Rhino 3D, Vray, and Adobe Suite. Strong arts and design professional with Diploma in Interior Architecture from the University of Applied Science in Mainz, Germany.

Through 10 years practice in exhibit planning and design, I have overseen a wide variety of projects around the globe, consistently ensuring that interpretive strategies match operational and communications goals. My technical knowledge and passion for design inform my creation of dynamic exhibits that engage varied audiences.

​

​Working for six years as Interior Architect / Project Manager for Oettle Ferber Associates, an internationally operating architecture firm in Munich in the past, I gained a lot of work experience in fields of mobile architecture, interior design and architecture for events and exhibitions in Germany and around the globe. Creating design concepts with consideration of their construction and details, managing the logistics of bringing designs into reality, creating digital plans and 3d models based on concept sketches, shepherding projects through the city permitting process, visiting construction sites and communication with consultants were my primary tasks in this position.

​

At the beginning of 2017 I moved to Vancouver, BC and joined Exhibau where I served in a Head of Design / Art Director role for over three years. I managed the entire design process with a team of freelance designers under me. I worked on various projects with Exhibau spanning from temporary structures to permanent installations such as tenant improvements, complete interior renovations and exhibition design for single as well as multi-use kits.

​

Back in Germany in June 2022, I had the pleasure to join ARNO Design, a trade show builder and an agency for trade show architecture and individual exhibition concepts based in Munich, to continue my career in International Project Development.

​

I'm enthusiastic, curious and very passionate about design and art, architecture and engineering.
