Andy Philpo

If good design is found in the nexus of imagination and reality, then my goal as a designer is to constantly seek to close the distance between those realms—and if I can’t do that then I need to at least come up with some pretty cool tricks.

I’ve spent my whole life around live entertainment, growing up in Nashville, getting a degree in Theatre and English from a small liberal arts school, and then going to work for one of the largest entertainment companies in the world, building and designing shows for their global portfolio of theme parks and resorts. I’m always looking at the future of entertainment, and how we can find new ways to immerse, engage, and inspire each other in our creative endeavors.

When I’m not working, I’m playing tabletop RPGs, or playing with my dog, Rocket, or alternatively, playing tabletop RPGs with my dog, Rocket.

I love science fiction and fantasy, video games, comic books, and any DIY-gadget you can run from a microcontroller.

A day spent making something amazing, at any scale, is a day well spent.

“Spike and I were living parallel lives, doing the same thing at the same time… I got braver as a designer with someone by my side.” 

Brought together on the “Hysteria” Tour in 1987, Nimblist co-founders Justin Collie and Doug “Spike” Brant both realized their shared eye for design through common inspiration, esteemed Lighting designer LeRoy Bennet. Understanding that they were attracted to the same elements of design and similar world views led to the partnership of a lifetime, debuting their first professional collaboration in 1999 on the Korn “Family Values” tour.
