| Signage: | Custom-designed carpet produced for the Conference Room within the Constitutional Court. Designed by Siphiwe Zulu and realised in collaboration with Sculptured Rugs, the work translates the artist’s visual language into a hand-tufted textile integrated within the interior environment. The composition employs a vibrant palette of bold blues, reds, and whites, used intentionally to create a dynamic visual field. These colours echo themes of knowledge and enlightenment, reinforcing the role of the conference room as a space of exchange, reflection, and decision-making. |
