Question: Has your own approach to design and to designing, has that changed over the period you have been working? Answer: I would think if I went back and met myself twenty years ago I would be saying "Don't do that, don't do that, that's so obvious, that's so bad". In fact, there was a really important meeting for me was when I went to show my portfolio to David Thacker at The Young Vic and I showed him all these pictures that I'd lovingly put together, you know, our portfolio, we worked on them so hard as designers, and he looked through and he looked at it all and he said "doors and windows, windows and doors. There is so much more the theatre than that". I can repeat it word for word because it went so much into my psyche. I thought, he's right. And that to me was a really, that was a turning point for me because then I stopped designing box sets completely, I've almost got a complete allergy to them now, so even if I am given a box set, like I was with a David Lodge play that I did at Birmingham Rep, I designed it all out of books, you know, I made everything out of books because it's almost like an aversion to it now because I think it's so much more than that, I think he was so right and it was like I thought "oh, yeah, perhaps I'll go off on this direction now". But it's evolved very much over the years from working in very very different situations. |
