The Architecture of the Villain’s Lair

Internationally acclaimed architect Chad Oppenheim, editor of Lair: Radical Homes and Hideouts of Movie Villains, examines the compelling and seductive abodes of movie villains. The villain’s lair is much more than where the megalomaniac goes to get some rest. Instead, the homes of the villains are places where evil is plotted and where, often, the hero is tested and must prove him/herself. In Lair, readers are invited to explore the architecture of villainy through rich content that includes in-depth visual and written material and a striking graphic design that features silver ink on black paper.
