They told you **how the movie felt**, not just what it was about and who was in it. As our writer Tom May wrote after Drew passed away in October, the great artist used **hierarchy and atmosphere** to great effect, so your eye knew exactly where to land. His “mountain of people” movie posters with faces stacked into a pyramid solved a problem that still defeats many designers: how to show a large cast without creating chaos, while his use of light communicated the promise of something extraordinary about to happen on the big screen. Following his death at the age of 78, artists all over the world paid their respects to a man whose brushwork inspired a **golden age in movie posters**. Here are some of their comments praising an artistic and, in some cases, personal hero.  ## Tributes from Fellow Artists **Tony DiTerlizzi**: “I cannot emphasise how unbelievably gifted the legendary artist, Drew Struzan, was. His iconic movie posters, capturing the likeness of our favourite actors, using textures and palettes that conveyed the mood of visionary directors, was phenomenal. And all designed in an exciting, joyous composition that is so incredibly hard to accomplish. “I tried to emulate his dynamic work for my gift to the Spiderwick film crew back in 2008 only to learn how complicated his art was and how alive, energetic and effortless he made it look. Godspeed, Drew. You’ve inspired so many.” **Karla Ortiz**: “[Drew's] incredible work has given me and countless others so much awe, joy and inspiration! I had posters of his work as a teen, I began using colour pencils because I thought he used them too. Always inspired by him. RIP Drew Struzan.” **Staz Johnson**: “When I was in high school my ambition was to be an illustrator of album covers, so my artistic heroes were Roger Dean, Derek Riggs, etc., but above all of them was Drew Struzan… R.I.P.” **Rob Duenas**: “When I think of 'Art', his is what I see in my mind. It’s no coincidence that one of the best illustrators of our time was named Drew. He drew alright; he left his mark on the world.”  **Tyler Jacobson**: “You defined an age and inspired a generation. Thank you for all the beauty, Drew. Godspeed.” **Pernille Ørum**: “He brought my childhood to life with his art, and his legacy will live on forever.” **Robbie Trevino**: “Drew, you were an absolute inspiration to myself and countless others as we grew up loving cinema and the covers, posters and packaging that went with them. I wouldn’t have even been interested in many movies initially (in child- and teenhood) if not for your stunning work depicting them. “I would stare at your work for countless hours as a kid and young adult. I remember doing studies of your posters in art school and still there was some sort of wizardry behind it I could never quite comprehend. You were a legend and your legacy will live on. Thank you for all the years of inspiration, rest easy.” **Kyle Lambert**: “Drew was a lovely person, an incredibly talented artist and an inspiration to artists and movie fans worldwide. I was fortunate enough to get to know Drew over the past couple of years, and I treasure those memories talking about how he created some of my favourite posters and showing him how I make my own. My heart goes out to his wife Dylan and the rest of his family. Rest in peace Drew, you are a legend.”  **Bill Sienkiewicz**: I don’t have words to express the magnitude of his abilities nor the depth of the loss we all feel as the result of his passing. My deepest condolences to Dylan and Christian, to their family, friends and his loved ones. **Devon Cady-lee**: What an amazing vision we’ve lost, illustrator and designer demi-god. We grew up seeing his work everywhere and I’m sure I’ll see his influences in art for rest of my life. **Dylan Cole**: Thank you so much for the endless inspiration that will endure forever. You were THE artist of my childhood and all my favourite films. Thank you for the joy and wonder. There will never be another like you. Rest in peace. **Robert Liefeld**: “When you saw one Drew Struzan illustration, you immediately wanted to see more. You had to consume all of them. He was a master. Rest in peace.” ## The Enduring Impact Many people will remember the feeling that it gave them the first time they saw a Drew Struzan poster. Whatever movie it was for, it had them hooked before they saw a trailer or knew anything about the plot. Creative Bloq and ImagineFX wish the very best for Drew’s family. *This article originally appeared in ImagineFX. Subscribe to ImagineFX to never miss an issue.

"Some were more abstract, some more figurative," she says. "The one that got chosen was the one that probably resembles my work the most. I often draw close-up portraits of people wearing peculiar glasses." It's unclear from the poster whether the character is a spectator or an athlete; Zagnoli says it could be either. "I like the idea that everyone involved in the Olympics brings a piece of themselves to the event," she explains. How does the poster evoke Milano Cortina? "The character’s ironic and flashy style reminds me of the streets of Milan, a city known for its taste in fashion, the mountains in the background evoke the landscape around Cortina," says Zagnoli, who also notes that the Olympic ring colours inform the palette of the poster.  ## Beyond the Olympics: Diverse Projects and Collaborations Aside from Olympic posters, Zagnoli has worked on a variety of other projects. She reflects on designing the cover for **Il Cucchiaio d'Argento**, a staple in Italian kitchens for over 70 years. "It’s an honour to illustrate the cover of a book that represents our culinary tradition and that is usually given as a gift from one generation to the next," she says.  Zagnoli also collaborates with her father on **Clodomiro**, an online shop featuring objects they designed inspired by love, body, and sexuality. "Me and my dad casually came up with the idea of doing a project together and that’s how Clodomiro was born," she shares.  ## Creative Process and Tools In terms of process, Zagnoli usually sketches her work on paper with pens or pencils and then translates those initial sketches on the computer using programs like **Photoshop** or **Illustrator**. "Sometimes the outcome of it is a print, sometimes it’s a metal sculpture or a textile," she explains. ## Key Advice for Aspiring Illustrators What advice would she give a budding illustrator who wants to land big clients? **"Forget about the big clients, concentrate on doing good work and on having a personal view on things and the clients will come."** And how can illustrators ensure their output stays fresh? **"Keep experimenting inside the work environment and outside. Read books, go to exhibitions, see a show, try to find something that would make you want to run home and do some great work yourself. If you can’t seem to find it, look further."** Find out more about [Olimpia Zagnoli](https://www.olimpiazagnoli.com/).]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>illustration</category> <category>careeradvice</category> <category>olympics</category> <category>designprocess</category> <category>creativity</category> <enclosure url="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/6zfZbNVh8Ry8j3j7Z2gW7A-1920-80.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Transform Your Spare Room into a Seasonal Art Studio: A Freelancer's Creative Sanctuary]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/transform-your-spare-room-into-a-seasonal-art-studio-a-freelancers-creative-sanctuary</link> <guid>transform-your-spare-room-into-a-seasonal-art-studio-a-freelancers-creative-sanctuary</guid> <pubDate>Thu, 25 Dec 2025 19:00:21 GMT</pubDate> <description>< *(Image credit: Whitney Travis)* ### Falling in Love with the Space I fell in love with this space immediately! The entire building hints at **1950s Greek revival architecture**, and it has presence. The space could very easily be a spare bedroom, but it became my sanctuary. My **iPad** travels everywhere with me: campus, work, hometown. Anywhere I go, it goes, serving as a digital option for quick life sketches. The **floor-to-ceiling windows** flood the studio with natural light. It’s perfect for any traditional media conquests and even better for watching the weather in Buffalo, NY, with a hot coffee in hand.  *(Image credit: Whitney Travis)* ### The Creative Routine One of my favourite things is gazing out at the rain or snowfall – it keeps me productive! I juggle a lot of hats – part-time student, freelancer and late-night professor – plus a full-time overnight job so I can take classes in the day (it’s a lot!). It doesn’t leave me with much room for personal art, but if I’ve got a spare moment, I’m here. If I had an ideal time in the day to be creative, it would be **late evening into the early morning**. This is when inspiration hits the hardest. When the world is silent, I’m alive. It’s nearly impossible to sit down with a project in the middle of the day, and summer is my least productive season for art. ### Essential Upgrades for Productivity I’ve downsized from two monitors to one to regain some desk space. Turns out that **fewer screens mean fewer distractions** and way better focus. I swapped my 13-inch **Wacom Cintiq** to a 24-inch beast, and it was a game changer.  *(Image credit: Whitney Travis)* My best upgrade was my chair. I had a rescued but worn relic from a college campus that was upgraded to an ergonomic **Secretlab TITAN**. If you’re spending that much time sitting, you gotta be proactive in saving your back and knees. ### Creating a Cozy Atmosphere The odds and ends around the studio are just accents to keep it cozy – the space where I can retreat and take a breather. I usually **decorate for the season**, and a matching candle is a must (apple spice in winter, pumpkin for fall, floral for spring… you get it!). This helps me relax, and the less troubled my mind is, the better I can concentrate and create. I always have a throw blanket on my chair. Sometimes I’ll take a quick nap between classes/work if I don’t want to move to my bedroom. My plants are mostly faux (I’m infamous with my mom for killing ferns).  *(Image credit: Whitney Travis)* ### Personal Touches and Inspiration I’ve got a small collection of album covers – mostly from animated films – adding a bit of colour and cinematic flair (I’m a huge cinephile, and I collect album covers and use them as artwork). I shared this space with my precious corgi Hiccup, who unfortunately passed away earlier this year, and my sweet English Angora bunny Kaori. I would leave the door open and the two would turn into a comedy duo like Abbott and Costello and keep me entertained between projects. ### Thrifty Studio Add-Ons All my coworkers were getting either a Switch or a Steam Deck. I may have been slightly pressured into buying a used one to hop into Animal Crossing. I don’t regret the purchase, but I don’t have any time to play! I also found a used Cameo printer to eventually make some stickers and bookmarks to sell and offer as add-ons to my illustration packages. But shortly after I got it, my bunny chewed the power cord.  *(Image credit: Whitney Travis)* ### Building Your Studio? If you're inspired to upgrade your own creative space, consider these tips from Whitney's experience. Whitney creates children’s work and fantasy – both animation and illustration. She loves visual storytelling, deep conversations and cold days.]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>artstudio</category> <category>freelance</category> <category>creativity</category> <category>design</category> <category>workspace</category> <enclosure url="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/FtdPeZnfiQzoBHA3HwWCzA-2560-80.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Discover the 10 Most Jaw-Dropping Hotel Designs of 2025: From Surrealist Mansions to Floating Sci-Fi Pods]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/discover-the-10-most-jaw-dropping-hotel-designs-of-2025-from-surrealist-mansions-to-floating-sci-fi-pods</link> <guid>discover-the-10-most-jaw-dropping-hotel-designs-of-2025-from-surrealist-mansions-to-floating-sci-fi-pods</guid> <pubDate>Wed, 24 Dec 2025 19:00:22 GMT</pubDate> <description>< ### **Banyan Tree Higashiyama Kyoto, Japan, by Kengo Kuma** An early contender for the hotel of the year was architect **Kengo Kuma**'s Banyan Tree Higashiyama Kyoto from January, which the architect told Dezeen was "inspired by the ethereal beauty of Noh". The classical Japanese theatre art is referenced in the hotel's gardens, where Kuma hid a dedicated **stage** made from yellow cedar and Kyoto cypress. *Find out more about Banyan Tree Higashiyama Kyoto ›* ---  ### **Puro Warszawa Stare Miasto, Poland, by GamFratesi** The Puro Warszawa Stare Miasto hotel was created by design studio **GamFratesi** to reference Scandinavian "simplicity and soft minimalism". Located in the historic Warsaw Old Town, the hotel features stylish design touches, including a "tunnel-like" lounge area with a curved ceiling that opens out onto an interior **courtyard**. *Find out more about Puro Warszawa Stare Miasto ›* ---  ### **Maison Heler, France, by Philippe Starck** Doubtlessly the most talked-about hotel this year, **Starck**'s surreal Maison Heler is a nine-storey building topped with what appears to be a metal-clad 19th-century mansion. The concept, fully conceived by Starck, aimed to tell the fictional story of Manfred Heler, whose mansion was thrust nine storeys into the air. *Find out more about Maison Heler ›* ---  ### **The Chancery Rosewood, UK, by David Chipperfield** Finnish architect **Eero Saarinen**'s iconic US Embassy building in Mayfair, London, was transformed into The Chancery Rosewood by local studio **David Chipperfield Architects**. The studio aimed to enhance Saarinen's original vision of the building, which housed the US Embassy from the 1960s until 2017, as a "palace on the park". *Find out more about The Chancery Rosewood ›* ---  ### **Telegraph Hotel, Georgia, by Neri&Hu** A former Soviet-era post office in **Tbilisi**, Georgia, was turned into a 239-room hotel by Chinese studio **Neri&Hu**. The studio kept the distinctive modernist facade of the hotel on Rustaveli Avenue, while reimagining it for contemporary use with floor-to-ceiling glazing and a courtyard. *Find out more about Telegraph Hotel ›* ---  ### **Kymaia Hotel, Mexico, by Productora** The striking Kymaia Hotel in **Oaxaca** was designed to evoke pre-Hispanic pyramids, built from pigmented concrete blocks in a warm sand tone and muted natural wood. Mexican studios Productora and The Book of Wa "sought to create a space where the built environment blends harmoniously with the Oaxacan coastal landscape", Productora told Dezeen. *Find out more about Kymaia Hotel ›* ---  ### **Shebara Resort, Saudi Arabia, by Killa Design** Shiny, sci-fi-looking pods float in the Red Sea at the Shebara Resort on **Saudi Arabia**'s Red Sea coast. The mirrored orbs were designed to evoke a string of pearls. Inside, interior firm **Studio Paolo Ferrari** created bespoke rooms that respond to the complexity of the curved internal dimensions. *Find out more about Shebara Resort ›* ---  ### **Prospect Berkshires, US, by Alander Construction** Described as a "year-round landscape hotel," Prospect Berkshires comprises 49 prefabricated cedar **cabins** set around a lake in **Massachusetts**, USA. The cedar-clad structures come in two sizes and are mostly closed on one side, with large windows to frame landscape views. Inside, they feature pine interiors and pops of colour. *Find out more about Prospect Berkshires ›* ---  ### **Jiangnan House Yangzhou Guangling, China, by BLUE Architecture Studio and the Urban Architecture Lab at Southeast University** Yangzhou's ancient city centre is home to Jiangnan House Yangzhou Guangling, a hotel complex made up of a cluster of old and new buildings. Its creators **renovated** and retrofitted existing old buildings and added contemporary ones for the project, which is one of several undertaken as part of an urban renewal program in Guangling Ancient City. *Find out more about Jiangnan House Yangzhou Guangling ›* ---  ### **Waldorf Astoria, USA, by SOM** The art deco Waldorf Astoria hotel in Midtown Manhattan underwent a "complete transformation" at the hands of global architecture firm **SOM**. The studio aimed to faithfully restore blueprints and details that had been altered over the years, with the facade's limestone podium and Waldorf Grey brickwork above cleaned and repaired to look brand new. *Find out more about Waldorf Astoria ›*]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>hoteldesign</category> <category>architecture</category> <category>design2025</category> <category>hospitality</category> <category>innovation</category> <enclosure url="https://static.dezeen.com/uploads/2025/03/maison-helerphilippe-starck-metz-sureal-hotel_dezeen_2364_hero_23.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Floating Timber Sauna in Norway: A Student Architectural Marvel on a Lake]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/floating-timber-sauna-in-norway-a-student-architectural-marvel-on-a-lake</link> <guid>floating-timber-sauna-in-norway-a-student-architectural-marvel-on-a-lake</guid> <pubDate>Tue, 23 Dec 2025 19:00:25 GMT</pubDate> <description>< ### Design and Construction Built on an existing timber pontoon, Rabagast Studio designed the sauna to feel both **intimate and ceremonial**. The interior features a dark, charred timber finish, described as "almost like a carved-out cave," creating a warm and atmospheric space. The studio explained, "Since the sauna was to be built on a floating pontoon and set freely within the lake, the site offered an unusual degree of design freedom."  The timber structure is left exposed externally, with horizontal planks on three sides and small timber shingles made from leftover panels on the other. A large window next to the sauna's wood burner chimney provides stunning views across the lake, while a covered area on the opposite side offers storage for firewood and a built-in bench. ### Interior Details Inside, the charred timber panels are coated in **linseed oil**, enhancing the dark ambiance and releasing a natural scent that will linger for years. Contrasting benches in pale aspen wood are oriented towards the window, emphasizing the connection to the surrounding landscape. Rabagast Studio stated, "Our primary references became the surrounding hills and forests, prompting us to explore a form that turns inward."  ### Structural Considerations To balance weight distribution, the sauna sits at a slight angle on the pontoon, reflected in the angled eaves of its corrugated white polycarbonate roof. This roof is designed to handle heavy snowfall, with a steep pitch to prevent over-loading and a white color that blends with the landscape. The studio noted, "Throughout the process, we had to consider the equilibrium of the floating raft, positioning the sauna so that the entire structure remained stable. In many ways, we found ourselves thinking more like boatbuilders than architects."  ### Similar Projects This project joins other innovative saunas in Norway, such as the **Trosten floating sauna** in Oslo by Estudio Herreros, designed as a place of retreat and contemplation. The photography for Watercave is by Peter Elias Hoddevik and Bianca Daumas, capturing the essence of this unique architectural feat.  ]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>architecture</category> <category>sauna</category> <category>norway</category> <category>sustainability</category> <category>design</category> <enclosure url="https://static.dezeen.com/uploads/2025/12/rabagast-studio-watercave-sauna-norway-peter-elias-hoddevik-hero_dezeen_2364_col_1.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> </channel> </rss>
