Description:
Painstakingly designed this complicated mirrored set. The challenges included having to design the initial shape of the set, then work out how to apply the honeycomb shapes so they align to all angles while simultaneously trying to match the forced perspective of the back panel. Ended up designing only two sides, but mirrored them at a diagonal angle.
In order to hide any seams within the set and to also to keep the fabrication simple, we opted to engrave most honeycomb shapes onto 4’x'8’ Mirrored Plexi panels. This allowed us to put the seam into the engraved part and hide any seams with the set.
