    TenEyck designed sets for theatrical productions for eleven years. Her style is generally spare and simple, but not to the point of abstraction. Some of her sets are more intricate, such as her design for Richard Greenberg's adaptation of Triumph of Love.
    In addition to physical scene design, TenEyck has also developed techniques in virtual projection design while working for the Mabou Mines theatre company. She used these techniques on the Shakespeare Festival of LA's rendition of Julius Caesar, where modern-esque campaign projections for Caesar were displayed against the backdrop of Los Angeles City Hall. Both her work at Mabou Mines and Los Angeles won her awards for digital/graphic work.
