Diana is currently designing a new Netflix series and recently wrapped filming on “Ánima,” the upcoming pic by director Andrés Beltrán. She says: “What I like most about my work is that what stays is not only what you see on the screen, but it’s the family that you create and the friends that you make long the way. It’s a very strong process of collective communion, a great mutual admiration, intimate and vulnerable.”

I feel like we could talk forever, but I know that you have to leave soon, so my last question to you is what piece of advice would you give to someone like me who is just starting out?

I would say to always go with what your gut is telling you, and trust yourself. Never stop learning and always go back and reflect on who you are, why you are here, and what it is that you love about what you do. Production designers have to constantly change their source of creativity to find new ways to discover beauty and inspiration. It doesn’t matter if it is a horrifying murder scene or a dreamed-up planet, we have the power to bring things visually to life, and to tell people a story through art with our vision and uniqueness. That is beautiful.
