A set model and design by Leroy Timblin for a production of "All My Sons." When creating these models Timblin likes to take inspiration from the script and later what he sees in public. "You start creating images in your head of what that looks like," He said. "I figure out the stuff I don't know...and then a lot of ideas just come from being out in the world. Whenever I'm just out around town, and I see something cool, I take a picture of it, and I keep that in my my design idea bank. All the shapes and colors mix and match together, because the world is a character."
