American production designer and long-time collaborator of J. J. Abrams who created the look of Star Trek (2009) and Star Trek Into Darkness, including the bright new Enterprise bridge.
Scott Chambliss is an American production designer who worked with J. J. Abrams on the television series Felicity and Alias and the film Mission: Impossible III before following him to Star Trek.
For the 2009 film he reimagined the interiors of the Enterprise, giving the bridge a gleaming white finish with glass panels and bright lighting, while the engineering scenes were shot in a real brewery to suggest industrial scale. His art department also developed the Kelvin, the Romulan mining ship Narada and the film's version of Vulcan.
He returned for Star Trek Into Darkness in 2013, adding a purpose-built warp core set, future London and San Francisco and the dreadnought Vengeance.
