If you’ve ever wanted to spend a night at Xavier’s Institute
for Higher Learning, now’s your chance. Over the last few months, a mansion in Westchester County, New York has
been meticulously transformed into the X-Mansion from
X-Men ’97 by Airbnb, complete with Professor X’s office, Beast’s lab, the danger room, and even a giant severed
head of a Sentinel sitting out front.
Airbnb’s ‘X-Men ’97 Mansion
I was honored to collaborate with many incredible artists in creating the Real-Life X-Men Mansion '97. I want to extend my gratitude to @cojo.ltd and @bednarkstudio, as well as the team at Marvel Studios, for making this opportunity possible. My responsibilities included scenic painting and managing small teams. Specifically, I worked on the transformations in Wolverine's room, the locker room near the entrance, while overseeing a small team throughout the mansion's transformation process.
Wolverine’s Room
I had the incredible honor of recreating Wolverine’s room with the gritty, nostalgic vibe of X-Men '97—complete with battle-worn details, claw-marked walls, and that raw, lived-in energy that makes it feel like Logan just stepped out for a mission.
