With curtain in, only some red floor with design is visible

Scene 1: floor pattern fills room and helps contain the space, still to come: ceiling piece

Scene 2

Scene 3

Scene 4

Final version of floor:
Floor sort of looks like a biker mama’s tattoos, but painting it on the floor will soften the harshness of some things. Overall I used a dark red fading to black here and there, to mimic the theatre house. The thorny vines will wind around upstage. New photos of model with a ceiling piece below. The placements of the moving walls is only a suggestion and will change throughout the process. The chandelier is a wild leafy thing, see photo at the bottom of this page.

cool chandelier and easy to make
