A Doll’s House Part 2

“Bug” by Tracey Lett's is a psychological thriller set in a claustrophobic motel room, where traumatized waitress Agnes and paranoid veteran Peter become delusional about the presence of bugs in the room. As the "perverse reality" deepens, Agnes suffers from Stockholm syndrome, which relies on Peter despite its instability, highlighting the destructive power of trauma and mental illness.

For this set design, I decided to depict such an abstract phenomenon in one shot, with numerous stairs leading to the walls and a very narrow, tilted cube shaped room.

Colour Pallette of this set was chosen according to the mood of the play and the realistic colour of the domestic gadgets.
