Who we are
Passion for creating the unforgettable
At IME, we believe that ideas can transform spaces, and spaces can transform emotions.
For over 37 years, we’ve been dedicated to creating memorable experiences through theming, ambiance, art, technology, and emotion. We transform ordinary places into settings that connect with people.
We specialize in themed decorations, set designs, window displays, floats, interior and exterior theming, animatronics, lighting, sound, projections, and special effects, all designed for shopping malls, stores, restaurants, theme parks and amusement parks, public spaces, and brands that understand the value of creating something more than a space: an experience that leaves a lasting impression. With our main headquarters in the United States and projects completed in various countries, we work every day with the same purpose as when we started: to create something that can be felt, that connects, and that is always worth remembering.

Starting operations in Barcelona
After a strong journey in America, we are starting a new chapter in Spain, launching our operations in Barcelona. We are inspired by the culture, artistic sensibility, and way of celebrating in this country, and we are here to add our talent to new stories, squares, and cities.
Mission
Our mission is to create experiences that awaken real emotions and generate an authentic connection between spaces, brands, and people.
We accompany our clients throughout the entire creative and technical process, taking care of every detail with passion, responsibility, and a clear vision: to make each project come to life in a unique way.
Vision
Our vision is to become international leaders in the development of themed experiences, bringing our work to new spaces, audiences, and cultures.
We believe in the value of a job well done, in the power of design with a purpose, and in emotion as a tool for connection. Today, we are taking one step further. After years of building a strong presence in America, we are starting our expansion into Spain, a country that inspires us with its culture, artistic sensibility, and way of celebrating.
We want to keep adding stories, squares, cities, and moments that leave a lasting impression.
Our story
IME was born from a child’s dream who always imagined bringing his ideas into the real world. That dream took shape in 1989 with the founding of Industrial Magic & Entertainment, starting in a small garage with a clear vision: to create spaces that would connect with people through emotion and creativity.
Along the way, its founder also had the opportunity to be part of The Walt Disney Company’s team, gaining experience in high-level productions that further enriched their professional and artistic vision.
Today, with its main headquarters in the United States, IME has completed over 2,650 projects in countries such as the United States, Mexico, Brazil, Venezuela, Colombia, Argentina, Chile, Canada, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Panama, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Peru, and Aruba.
We have transformed shopping malls, stores, theme and water parks, plazas, facades, and institutional spaces with set designs, theming, window displays, and themed creations designed to connect, impact, and move people. And even though a lot has evolved since that first workshop, the essence remains intact: to create something that can be felt, that inspires, and that is always worth remembering.
