Cassandra Tuan grew up in Malaysia in what she calls an art desert, where theatre was barely a concept and a director who wanted a set had to dream it up, build it, and paint it herself. That was the beginning.

Shuyang Zhou builds worlds that exist only for a moment. For the opera Ballymore, in a theatre with no fly system and almost no wing space, she built a house into the back of a mountain, then rotated the whole thing 180 degrees.

For scenic designer Hernán Peñuela, theatre has always been magic.
He was five when his parents first took him to a performance. Surrounded by music, light, actors, and scenery, he felt as if he were traveling through imagination.

What if beauty could actually save us?
For scenic designer Hernán Peñuela, theatre began as a spaceship traveling through his imagination. That sense of wonder never left. Beauty, intuition, and the magic of making something.
Tomorrow on SKENE.

Someone must have spilled a bag of Turf Builder onstage. 🌱 Now we just need to find a hardware store with a mower big enough to cut this grass.
Any suggestions? 😂

AI tools are transforming scenic design. Here’s a case study with All My Sons:
1️⃣ Topaz Gigapixel 8 enhanced my Vectorworks rendering with incredible detail.
2️⃣ Original rendering for comparison.
These tools elevate how I present my vision to collaborators.
