design ideas

we started today by experimenting with ways of making trees because that is the biggest part o the section we are designing for and feel that once we have that concept then we can build the forest.
We started by making trees out of materials we could find in the theatre mostly which were paper, o that we did try was a tube of fabric suspended from one of the lighting bars. I felt that this was quite effective and was a simple creation of a tree and it gave us something to work with, we slowly developed the idea of adding paper etc to the inside and casting light inside to create shadows. We also added roots to the bottom made of paper and other fabric.
