 Big-screen villains tend to live in architectural splendor, their homes often locations where a hero is tested. Movie villains’ abodes are frequently compelling and seductive, and from a design standpoint, they tend to be envy-inducing expressions of the warped desires of their occupants. Lair celebrates and considers several iconic villains’ homes from 15 films, including Dr. Strangelove, The Incredibles, Blade Runner 2049, and You Only Live Twice.
