The director's vision was based on his previous "She Loves Me" design.  He wanted to build the design around an intricate patterned floor and a revolving door.

​

Our interpretation ultimately used a revolving door itself mounted within a revolving stage.  An intricate pastel pattern was used both on the floor and scenic surround.

​

As assistant designer, I developed Photoshop renderings and adjusted them based on the director's feedback to clarify the pattern and palette of the design.  I then used these renderings to create paint elevations, and direct both the construction and painting of these elements.
