Macbeth builds up a brutal world where people chase ambition and eventually lose everything. The monochromatic stage was an imaginative abstract version of a crown with curved and broken shapes.
The play offers an opportunity that Macbeth's ambition is presented on stage in a visible way, so that the design can have imaginative shapes and forms that are unlimitless. The broken pieces of irregular shapes combined together create an abstract crown that is supported by the plot of Macbeth.
As an imaginative abstract crown, it can be transformed from crown to cage; it is a symbol for the ambition of Macbeth, which can be started with glorries, gorgeous and striking, and then when Macbeth loses control of it, it turns into a jail that is eventually destroyed with a sorrow tone.
