If you’ve ever wished you could walk straight into a Wes Anderson movie, past the pastel hotels, quirky characters, and perfectly symmetrical sets – your moment has arrived. Wes Anderson: The Archives has officially opened at London’s Design Museum, and it’s every bit as magical as you’d imagine.

For the first time ever, Anderson is sharing treasures from his personal archives. Think costumes, props, sketches, and even handwritten notes that shaped his iconic worlds. It’s like stepping behind the curtain of The Grand Budapest Hotel, Fantastic Mr Fox, Asteroid City, and more. In an era of CGI, Anderson’s worlds are built by hand, with obsessive attention to detail. From tailored corduroy suits to miniature books, every piece tells a story of collaboration and artistry.
