Well, now is your chance to experience some of that distinct Wes Anderson stylistic, old world charm.\u00a0<span class=\"markl293muzq4\" data-markjs=\"true\" data-ogac=\"\" data-ogab=\"\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-ogsb=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/articles\/beyond-borders-belmond-venice-simplon-orient-express-train\/\">Belmond,<\/a> the iconic\u00a0<\/span>pioneer of luxury travel for over 45 years, has teamed up with the acclaimed cinematographic genius for a one of a kind designed luxury carriage. Paying tribute to both the golden age of cinema and travel, he reimagined the Cygnus carriage aboard the legendary British Pullman. And you can experience the wonderful, emporium of a Wes Anderson set, via booking a journey or chic dinner aboard the coach.<\/p>\n<p>Wes Anderson&#8217;s films are iconic both for the directing style and cinematography, as well as the careful attention to detail in set design and world making. His films often juxtapose modernity with old world charm, creating a hybrid Art Nouveau\/Art Deco design that exists in a fantastical world, that is of today yet still feels familiar. He&#8217;s done the same here with the Cygnus. The carriage is instantly recognizable as a Wes Anderson design through his signature symmetrical lines, unique color pallets, and art nouveau style.\u00a0 The bespoke design also introduces an elevated guest experience with two new private coup\u00e9s in the carriage alongside lacquered burl-wood walls, pops of pink (a signature of Anderson) and striking geometric upholstery and carpeting. The collaboration is an organic pairing, with both Belmond and Anderson&#8217;s respect for timeless design, with a twist. \u201c<em>At Belmond we are custodians of timeless heritage&#8221;<\/em> says Arnaud Champenois, Belmond&#8217;s Senior Vice President, Brand &amp; Marketing. <em>&#8220;It is our mission to keep the travel dreams alive by collaborating with the most creative talents, who share our passion for design and craftsmanship. <\/em><em>It has been a privilege to work with Wes Anderson who is one of the most captivating story tellers in the world and a true legend.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_37873\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-37873\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption alignfull -width\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-37873 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/10\/pul-gst-carriage-wes-anderson03.png\" alt=\"Belmond-Wes Anderson\" width=\"960\" height=\"1198\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-37873\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Filmaker Wes Anderson aboard the Belmond, Cygnus carriage.
