Honey Patel - F1 x Chase Sapphire | 3D Production Design

Project Overview

For the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix 2023, Chase Sapphire created an exclusive race lounge experience for card members. Working as the 3D Production Designer, I supported the PHNTM team in translating creative concepts into high-fidelity 3D environments used for design validation, client reviews, and production alignment.

The Challenge was to design a premium, immersive lounge that reflects the Chase Sapphire brand, complements the high-energy F1 atmosphere, and functions within the constraints of a live, large-scale event in Las Vegas.

•Developed realistic lighting and materials to match on-site conditions and brand tone

•Created camera views and walkthroughs to communicate scale, flow, and sightlines

•Collaborated closely with creative directors, producers, and designers to iterate quickly

•Prepared production-ready visuals to support client approvals and fabrication planning
