His career in feature filmmaking stretches from the mid‑1990s to the present, with early credits dating back to art direction roles in films such as The Englishman Who Went Up a Hill But Came Down a Mountain (1995) and To Kill a King (2003), followed by supervising art direction for The Life and Death of Peter Sellers (2004) and The Constant Gardener (2005). During the 2000s, Lowe served as supervising art director on high-profile studio films including Basic Instinct 2 (2006), The Golden Compass (2007), Quantum of Solace (2008), The Young Victoria (2009), and Harry Brown (2009). He also worked as a production designer on Dread (2009) and as art director on In Bruges (2008).
