Form and Movement

There is quite a lot of detail within this interior, not to mention it preserves the patina of the French chateau's original 19th-century paintwork and adds character with the vintage French merry-go-round seat. The custom designed chandelier and merry go round provide aesthetic form to the Interior, enabling the surroundings to be influenced by the form of those particular objects. They seem to be manipulating the space, providing movement to the entirety of the room. The merry-go-round appears to be floating, allowing the space to feel "open" and magical, and the chandelier looks like it is moving with all those crystal bits hanging down unevenly. The blue paintwork at the base of the walls creates a sense of the ocean surrounding the room. As a result the merry-go-round in some instances can be perceived as a '"boat" floating on the illusion of the water in the room. It is truly a unique design.
