About Nathan Crowley

Nathan Crowley is and English born Production Designer, who was born in 1966 in London. He has worked on many famous films of which he has received awards/nominations for.

Nathan Crowley studied a fine arts course in London before he went to Brighton Polytechnic to focus on architecture, so that he could follow his father’s and grandfather’s professions. Funnily enough Crowley was raised in a glass house that had been designed by his father. Crowley briefly worked in the field in London, first for an architect called Thomas Saunders, then for Robin Moore-Eadd. After Crowley discovered the emptiness that came with designing commercial architecture, he decided to instead go down the route of film instead.
