Hi, my name is

DOMINIC BARRETT

I make software

build hardware

and design experiences

of all kinds


Currently, I am working full time as an XR Designer. But I am continually expanding and deepening my knowledge in order to create a diverse skill set that allows me to design and create fun, intriguing and beautiful interactive experiences.

On this site you'll find some examples of my projects, with discussion of my thought process from start to finish.

You can also see more at my Vimeo page and my Instagram account.
