Speculative Design Project
Design and Model Box created for my final piece at university
Set in 1950s Florence, the story centres around love, art and family. My final design took inspiration from Florence's iconic Duomo and the octagonal shape seen often in florentine architecture. The Proscenium features Baccio Bandinelli-Bargello's Sculptures of adam and eve, highlighting the religious importance in this city and the original relationship between man and woman.
The opening number, 'Statues and Stories', highlights the art seen in the Piazza della Signoria, where much of this story takes place. The sculptures in the Loggia dei Lanzi, found in this piazza, also feature in my design.
