this design is meant to show time through the seasons. following my idea of the "laboratory" i decided to think of equipment that is often used in one. the obvious choice was a set of viles and i thought it would be appropriate to display the minerals for the makeup in. being that this is a store meant for designing your own make up and perfumes i thought that this would get that point across. the color of the minerals displayed in the viles would change by the seasons and i felt that would be a good inidcation of time when dealing with make up and the changing colors that people wear throughout the seasons.
when thinking about make up and time i started to think about evolution. throughout time, make up has had many different phases and color palettes. the idea of phases went well with my concept of mitosis and i thought it would be interesting throughout each room to witness change whether it be throughout time or just the transformation of a naked face slowly getting makeup added on to it.
for this design i wanted to mimic the look of a clock without actually having it be a functional timepiece. to do so i decided to once again go with the use of lab equipment and display it like the 4 main times displayed on a clock, filling each one to its respective time. and again i would fill each beaker with different colors that coordinated with whatever season it happened to be.
