Like the great architects, the greatest film directors also have their own recognizable signature, something by which they are instantly recognized. This was proven by the artist and architect Federico Babino from Barcelona, who imagined what the houses would look like if famous directors were architects. He packaged the architectural ideas that are inextricably linked with their cinematic masterpieces into the Archidirector project. And for an architect, the solutions are absolutely phenomenal, just as their films are phenomenal.
They are directors architects of cinemas. Each of them, with their own style, language and aesthetics, build stories that envelop viewers like buildings and take them into their own world. And so the project was born Archidirector Catalan artist and architect Federica Babina, who imagined what kind of houses would be drawn in a movie directors if they were architects.
He drew ideas for houses from theirs film legacies, from the works that most marked their career and bursting with movie references. Homes of Tim Burton, the Coen Brothers, Stanley Kubrick, Alfred Hitchcock, Georg Lucas, Ingmar Bergman, Jacques Tati, Federico Fellini, Ridley Scott, Wes Anderson and more famous director names it really couldn't go wrong.
