SUUM Studio is a creative design and digital arts studio specialising in immersive, 3D and real-time craft, merging art, design and technology to create meaningful digital experiences.

Co-founded by Creative Director Pauline McCloy-Turtle, a specialist in Lighting Design and Environmental Art, and Technical Director Charles Turtle, a specialist in 3D Animation, Real-Time Immersive Art and Virtual Production, the studio brings together creative direction, technical innovation and design precision to deliver work that inspires and engages.

Working collaboratively with a trusted network of composers, designers, software architects and digital artists, SUUM produces immersive content and creative assets for business, media and cultural organisations. Since incorporating in 2018, the studio has been a three-time Scottish Design Awards finalist, a UKRI Creative Catalyst Fund 2024 recipient, and part of the inaugural CoSTAR Network Ideate Residency cohort of 2025.

At the heart of SUUM’s practice is the fusion of digital art, immersive design and technology. We create generative artworks, interactive animation and bespoke soundscapes powered by real-time rendering and Unreal Engine expertise. Alongside our immersive work, we help clients develop brand design, digital assets and websites that communicate ideas clearly and creatively. Our current R&D expands into interactive app development for gaming and immersive markets, enabling the studio to develop and license its own IP.

Our mission is to explore how technology can deepen human connection and expand creative possibility. We design immersive narratives and digital experiences that engage audiences, transform spaces and strengthen how stories are told. By combining design thinking, real-time technology and a commitment to accessibility and sustainability, SUUM delivers innovative, high-quality work that drives both cultural and commercial impact.
