Invisible Architect of the “Nip Tuck”

Everyone watching the famous TV series Nip Tuck may realize that, most of the scenes are interior shots, even though the story takes place in a sunshine filled city like Miami. However, there is something attractive in those spaces. Every interior set is carefully designed into the smallest object. The heavy use of artificial light, the absence of direct sunlight and the struggle to avoid of the outside view is considerable. Apart from these points, the sterilized, hygienic use of the interior spaces is interesting. They are so well designed that it would be insane to use them. One can feel that none of the people in the story actually uses those spaces. Actually the players are like visitors in the rooms they are in. They do not use the props in the sets, they do not mess up with the furniture, everywhere is so tidy, clean, hygienic and thus so disturbing, so stressed. Thus it goes very well with the plot and the characters…
One considers who is behind of all of these. It was [1] Ellen Brill, the architect who designed all of the interior sets of the Nip Tuck TV Series. And Nip Tuck is not the only one she took care of. She is also the interior set decorator of many TV series and films. More can be found on her neat web site.
