Perth & Kinross Council commissioned Bigg Design to create a screen to help manage and hide a collection of bins and an unsightly electrical cabinet located at the corner of the new Perth Theatre development.
Sited on Cutlog Vennel in the heart of Perth’s Cultural Quarter, this project played a small yet pivotal role in transforming the street environment.
Before the intervention, the lane was cluttered with bins and an unsightly electrical cabinet - impeding access and making an eyesore at the front of the new Perth Theatre..
Located on the corner of ‘Cutlog Vennel’, this lane of medieval origins was once used to transport sawn timber to and from saw mills. Inspired by local Perthshire logging, Bigg Design created a graphic illustration style that was hand-painted onto the screens and complemented the Theatre’s pared back aesthetic. Careful design and planning led to a seamless install.
Deceptively simple, the white-on-charcoal painting is rich with detail and was painstakingly produced by hand.
Bigg Design was responsible for concept through to detailed 3D design, sourcing and managing manufacture and installation. We also produced drawings for listed building consent.
