Adrian Fisher (born August 5, 1951) is internationally recognised as one of the world's leading maze designers of all time. His mazes can be found in all corners of the globe.

Named by The Guardian newspaper as one of Britain's top 50 designers, Adrian Fisher has designed half the world's mirror mazes since 1990, the world's first corn maze, and over 500 mazes across 30 countries. He devised a new Bus Map concept for London Transport, invented the Mitre Tiling system and the 7-sided Fisher Paver system, has earned six entries in the Guinness Book of Records, won twelve design and export awards, and is an international garden design Gold Medallist. He was the 2003 recipient of the Resorgimento Award at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, USA. His Navigati puzzle appears every day in Britain's Daily Mail, and he designs puzzles for the World Puzzle Championships.

Adrian serves on the European Board of the Themed Entertainment Association (TEA), which is dedicated to creating compelling places and experiences. His challenging report "Stamford 3000" applied his holistic approach to the future development of an English market town with over 500 historic buildings.

Adrian Fisher Design Ltd is based in Dorset, England.
