This work about the album of the Arctic Monkeys. Hotel&Casino model is concept model of this album.
On the artwork, Alex Turner (member of band) stated that “In the past I’ve definitely had record covers that don’t, to me, represent what’s on the wax, and I certainly don’t feel that way about this one. By the end of it, I think I’d forgotten there even was a record. I’d just gotten obsessed with cardboard.” Turner began by drawing a hexagon, to reflect the band’s sixth studio album, eventually drawing influence from architects Eero Saarinen and John Lautner, becoming “quite consumed” by the process. The artwork was initially inspired by a photograph depicting the set for a Lunar Hilton hotel being built for 2001: A Space Odyssey.
I tried to make a work that fit the mood and theme of those times. I hope you like it!
Thanks!
