have you seen this wonderful website, wes anderson palettes?
we are going to see wes anderson's new movie, the grand budapest hotel this week and i am so excited. i have always been interested in set design and am feeling so inspired by the imagery and palettes in this film. anderson always creates incredible worlds within his stories (and he loves symmetry, like me.) apparently the film is set in a fictional country, zubrowka, so he literally created his own world in this case. the film sets were created in former german department store! there is always a consistent color story in his films - some create nostalgia, some create whimsy, all of them surreal - a world more colorful than the real world. the colors of the interiors are also reminiscent of spring and the pastel pastries in the film...
