EditorX interviewed Dune's production designer, Paul Vermette to learn how its massive world was constructed.

This is an interesting piece which details how designers tried to make each planet's architecture and style be a realistic response to its environment and sometimes also politics.

And also weave together a range of different historical styles from Earth's history.

Their most challenging idea to execute - the Imperial Nexus laboratory's main room which involved combining 4 sound stage sets.

Dune will release in Australia on December 2.
