Did you notice they did not make the storage compartment for the daybed? The cushions are just sitting against the wall. On the set, the cushions were attached to a lid that raised up that had pillows stuffed inside it.
The color of those countertops are way off. The original color was redder, and called Persimmon. It was discontinued a long time ago by Formica. This color is called Clementine and has been produced for decades.
Notice the fence is stepped to make it look like the yard has a square boundary. The reality is that the property line runs at an angle alongside the LA River directly behind and below it. The shopping center across the river was also photoshopped out.
I think they did the best they could with what they had to work with, which was a real brick and morter house that was laid out nothing like the soundstage set. I'm glad they recreated the master bedroom on the upper split level where it was in the real house all along. If Schwartz had just added an extra staircase in the foyer leading up to it on the set to suggest that was where the parents' bedroom was rather than up the main staircase on the second story, the layout of the set would have made better sense all along.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how they finished those cabinet bases, but they sure don't look right.

ReplyDeleteIt was a nice try (a really nice try) but it doesn't match perfectly in areas the dimensions are off and you can see where they had to cheat.
