Adrian Fisher is the world's leading maze designer, having created more than 700 mazes across 32 countries since 1979. "I really do love my job," says the 65-year-old. "It's like I'm a big kid, and creating things that people can play in all day long - who wouldn't want to do that?"

For 38 years, Adrian Fisher has been designing mazes from his southwest England-based studio. From classical hedges, to carnival mirrors with special effects, Fisher works with a variety of forms and in a variety of scales. His road to becoming the world's leading maze designer was unexpected. He began his career as an accountant while designing mazes as a hobby on the side. When he was 27, Lady Elizabeth Brunner wanted a maze built at her home and Fisher landed the gig. He now employs four permanent staff and typically works with 15 additional specialists, from animators to builders, at any given time.
