Merge Gardens is a journey of perpetual discovery fused with blissful organisation, challenging puzzles, and that beautifully therapeutic feeling of ticking off tasks on a to-do list.
As Daisy explores the dusty, ruined mansion, where each step seems to bury a memory, a vivid flashback transports her to an extraordinary Christmas in her childhood—a wintry landscape with decorations, a glistening Christmas tree, and the enchanting presence of Uncle Elwood. The day when Daisy discovers her unique gift.
While Christmas is traditionally associated with joy and warmth, we aimed to introduce an element of mystery and anticipation. The music composed for the scene carries haunting undertones, creating an atmosphere where one might still get chills. This keeps the audience on the edge of their seats, unsure of what unexpected turn the story might take next.
Daisy steps into the mansion, feeling a sense of familiarity in the air. As she explores, memories flood back, transporting her to an extraordinary Christmas from the mansion's glorious past.

Inspired by Victorian American style, we embarked on an exploration of abandoned houses, diving into the creation of a beautiful mansion with that added mystical touch. The walls decorated with paintings from the past signal the personalities of characters who've left their mark on the mansion.A mansion with a dash of magic, where Daisy and Richard find a shared connection and familiarity.
Storytelling techniques and visual principles elevate a narrative beyond words and images. It's not just about unfolding storyline; it's about how each element creates an immersive emotional experience for the audience.
In Elwood's design, we crafted features that convey an "itchy" and slightly creepy vibe. From his '80s-inspired beard to the use of sharp edges on his face, each detail contributes to creating a specific feel. The design follows a triangular shapelanguage, aiming to make him appear a bit more mysterious or tricky to the audience.
