Heather M - Yellow While discussing the show's characters, Jason mentioned that Heather M was like a delicate bird in a gilded cage. With that image in mind, Heather M's bedroom was designed using a custom Astek wallpaper that conveyed the claustrophobic feel of a cage. Yellow is a dynamic color. With the right tone, it signifies freshness, positivity, clarity and joy. On the dingier side, it conveys a feeling of decay, sickness and sorrow. This wallpaper, with its slightly greenish hue and obsessive, repeating pattern, clearly expresses the latter. C D Set decorator Kellie completed the story, adding an actual bird in a cage and a sad menagerie of stuffed animals. Heather M's living room was furnished with yellow accents and tied together by the room's pièce de résistance, an original Alice in Wonderland print created by Leslye Headland's mother. The print frames the melancholy scene of Heather M bleeding to death from a self-inflicted wound while her parents are too preoccupied to notice. Parental self-absorption and neglect is a prominent theme in the series. C. HEATHER CHANDLER'S BEDROOM, ALL RED ACCENTS AND SHARP POINTS. BUILT ON STAGE AT CAPITAL ARTS STAGES.
