This design reinterprets the visual language of classical art through a contemporary digital lens. Drawing inspiration from Renaissance colour palettes, Cubist geometry, and Romanticism themes of awe and reflection; the work celebrates how traditional artistic ideals can find new expression in modern visual culture. The composition and colours evoke the vibrant and multifaceted nature of modern city life, while still carrying a sense of human emotion and connection. The figure’s upward gaze suggests aspiration and renewal, aligning with the project’s aim to foster community pride and positive social messaging. The bold, interlocking shapes prevents large blank areas, reducing the likelihood of tagging, while the bright, saturated colours ensure high durability – future proofing the design against fading in the sun. The design wraps around the signal box, with the intention of making an everyday object into a small and quiet monument to creativity, cultural continuity, and the power of
reinterpretation.
