Mammoth Rapids

Mammoth Rapids is my entry for the Storyland Studios Design Competition.
The brief was to design an attraction that would be judged on:

  • Depth and Richness of Storytelling: Does it entertain, thrill, and excite?

  • Emotional Resonance: Does it move people to act?

  • Design Innovation: Does it push the boundaries of what’s been done before?

  • Creative Use of Materials: Does it find new ways to use old tools and design methods?

  • Executability: Is it doable?

  • Ecological Compatibility: What’s the impact on the area where the project would be installed?

This sleepy roadside attraction begins as a boat tour of beautiful caverns before a cave-in shunts your boat off course. Suddenly you’re racing down whitewater rapids through magma chambers, past dazzling giant crystal formations before coming face-to-face with a live woolly mammoth!
