The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/set-design\/\"><strong>structure<\/strong><\/a> functions as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/tag\/sculpture\/\"><strong>sculpture<\/strong><\/a>, projection surface, and architectural frame all at once.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Conceived as a Pandora\u2019s box, the cube opens and closes to reveal multiple layers of the show\u2019s narrative. In one sequence, it unfolds into a plus shape (+) on the stage floor, a visual emblem of unison and connection. At other moments, it frames performers through circular apertures, hosts the singer on its exterior while choreography plays out within, or becomes a vessel for projection mapping, with visuals such as a clock face evoking themes of memory and time. Suspended above, circular LED screens hover in counterpoint to the cube, sometimes resembling abstract glasses that frame the performance from new perspectives.<\/p>\n<p>RULA\u2019s seven-meter white cube unfolds, rotates and transforms<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">White Summer: An Architectural Approach to Stage Design<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ru-la.com\/\"><strong>London-based set designer<\/strong><\/a> Ruby Law\u2019s approach reflects her architectural background, trained at HKU, MIT, and The Bartlett (UCL). White Summer is part of her ongoing exploration of immersive concert environments, which includes productions such as Come Alive: The Greatest Showman Circus Spectacular, WestK\u2019s Hedwig and the Angry Inch, and Jorja Smith\u2019s 2022 world tour.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The cube is built from a steel truss clad in timber panels and mounted on a central revolve that allows rotation and continuous reconfiguration.
