grand budapest interiors

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…

film series favorite | greece

last week we watched the final movie in one of our favorite trilogies, richard linklater’s before sunrise series. the film is called before midnight and if you haven’t seen the whole series, you should (go. start it now). the first film is the story of two strangers who meet on a train and agree to spend one night together in vienna, austria. the trilogy takes place over 18 years and three cities. and it is based off a real story. the second movie is best, but we loved this one because of the scenery in the greece, where we travelled last year for our anniversary. the movie posters make me nostalgic for beautiful santorini and these spots.

i hope you love jesse and celine’s love story as much as i do.
