WINDOW DESIGN & PROPS

Inspired by Aesop's The Rose and the Butterfly, this window design brings the timeless fable to life through a captivating visual and auditory narrative. A floating rose, symbolizing the central element of the fable, is accompanied by a custom animated butterfly that gently flutters nearby. Beneath, a smaller garden of plaster flowers represents the other blooms the butterfly briefly interacted with during its journey.

A narrator, using a customized looped speaker, recites Aesop’s fable, enhancing the storytelling experience. The backdrop features an illustration from the Victoria and Albert Museum, referencing the original vases where Aesop’s Fables were once preserved, seamlessly tying history and design into a compelling, immersive display.
