Tim Burton: Designing Worlds Paperback – December 17, 2024 by Tim Burton (Author), Maria McLintock (Editor), Anja Aronowsky Cronberg (Contributor), Charlie Fox (Contributor), Colleen Atwood (Contributor), Hadeel Eltayeb (Contributor), Hilary Davidson (Contributor), Iain Borden (Contributor), Ian MacKinnon (Contributor), Imogen West-Knights (Contributor), Jenny He (Contributor), Pete Saunders (Contributor), Ryan White (Contributor). An expansive exploration of the role of design and creative practice in director Tim Burton’s unique approach to building worlds

This book is the official catalog for the exhibition at the Design Museum, as well as the first publication to explore the relationship between Tim Burton’s artistic creations and the world of design. The reader is invited into an examination of what is now broadly referred to as the “Burtonesque,” exploring his iconic style and the impact his unique design aesthetic has on broader visual culture. The book unpacks Burton’s distinctive visual language, exploring the intersection of gothic, carnivalesque and fantastical elements that define his cinematic masterpieces. Insightful essays by design experts and film critics, interspersed with images featured in the exhibition, will offer a deeper understanding of the director’s creative process, making this catalog an homage to the role that design practice plays in the hauntingly beautiful worlds he creates.


Tim Burton (born 1958) grew up in Burbank, California, and studied animation at the California Institute of the Arts. He is best known for his dark, gothic films about quirky outsiders, including Beetlejuice (1988), Batman (1989), Edward Scissorhands (1990) and many more. Most recently, he directed and produced the TV series Wednesday (2022), which became the second-most-watched show on Netflix. He lives and works in London.
