Released in 1976, Hotel California became one of the most iconic rock albums ever, known for its smooth West Coast sound and its themes of excess, illusion, and entrapment. The title track alone shaped an entire era of storytelling in rock, mixing warm guitars with a darker undertone. For this A3 framed piece, we focused on the album’s mix of glamour and unease, pulling from its desert imagery and surreal symbolism. We turned those elements into a clean visual that echoes the record’s mood without copying its cover. We shaped it so the atmosphere of the music—sunset haze, quiet danger, old-school California myth—sits on the wall exactly the way the album sits in culture.
