Film director Joseph Kosinski, the name behind blockbusters such as Tron Legacy and Oblivion, for example , earned his Master of Architecture at Columbia University in 1999.
Many prominent names in Hollywood have roots in architecture. Some of these set designs have also been translated into real life, as they have inspired architects and interior designers throughout the years. Think the Hook and Ladder 8 in Ghostbusters, The Bradbury Building featured in the Blade Runner and the beautifully-imagined Grand Budapest Hotel. This is not surprising, as many great art directors and set designers started out as architects. In fact, some movies feature unique buildings that take centre stage. And while this can be attributed to award-winning actors, special effects and witty script, set design also plays a major role in doing so. The best kinds of movies are those that swallow you whole, transporting you to a particular time or place - making you momentarily forget about the all-important deadline that’s looming ahead.
