Łódź, Łódzkie, Poland
After working in a variety of media production, design, and music-related fields, I now play a key part in the creation of themed entertainment. I found my place in Poland, being involved in the creation of the theme park Mandoria since the very inception of it. From master planning through to detail design, working with an amazing team of professionals in a challenging new market and where my illustration skills prove to be useful every day. I'm pleased to be involved in a much larger strategic development for the group. In 2025 the French park Parc du Petit Prince was acquired, with a unique set of characteristics. This ensured new challenges for the team and a totally different design language and strategic direction. Our responsibilities at the Ptak Group are now split over two parks in two different countries, but with joined management and project coordination.
After the acquisition of the French park Parc du Petit Prince by the Ptak Group, the focus has been mainly to improve facilities, while working hand in hand with the local team in France. We started to see the true potential of the park blossom soon. Raising the quality of every aspect, had proven to be very fruitful and it resonates with our guests. It is a joy to work on a multi-year strategic plan for a park that is so different from Mandoria. A sizeable expansion is yet to be unlocked. We remain actively involved in all details and keep consistently opening new experiences every year.
After opening in 2021, Mandoria has been showing growth and with that a necessity for capacity expansion. The last years were all about expanding the entertainment offering in Mandoria, through opening additional zones & attractions and developing a wider range of services. In the meantime, we are continuously working on strategically exploring further ventures in leisure & entertainment investments. The business will reach beyond Mandoria, based on balanced market research, location scouting, masterplanning & assessments. Besides happily guiding the growing organisation of Mandoria, I'm excited to be part of a continuing growth to become a wider design & development provider in the Polish leisure industry.
Responsible for the Art and style of a brand new theme park, of which the first phase (in a then existing hall) opened successfully on the 8th of July in 2021. The indoor expansion opened within the park's first year of operation, the highly themed zone Arkady, with a Mack Rides Powered Coaster at the center. Entirely developed and built in-house in merely 10 months time. The expanding follow-up phases are already in full development.
After a very fun and successfull first year of mentoring, I happily returned as a mentor for 2023. It is truly an amazing experience to be able to professionally mentor people who are like-minded and eager to learn.
Responsible as lead designer, for the Art and Style of the project.
