Luxury Escapism

Luxury Escapism’s Oddly Satisfying Spa was a multi-sensory environment designed to promote relaxation and meditative states through art and immersive technologies. The spa invited guests to leave their phones at the door, don slippers, talk only in whispers and explore various virtual reality, 360 audio, and hands-on “installations” to stimulate the senses.

I co-founded the initial Spa and launched the experience in May 2018 in Ridgewood, New York. I was responsible for designing the guest experience, hiring and managing the actor talent, and marketing and supported in production/set design and installation.

During my time with Luxury Escapism we successfully elevated the work of dozens of digital artists and actors in the NY metro area. We also partnered with brands including Recess, Giphy Arts, and Red Bull. Luxury Escapism was featured in press including Vice, i-D, No Proscenium, and VR Fitness Insider.
