apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

oh yes, her place in this movie was really cute!

finally thank you i have been dying to find something on this apartment i loved it!

Thank you for posting this! When I saw the movie, I too spent more time looking at her lovely apartment. Any chance you can get a picture of the tiled floor in the entry way? That really inspired me, but I couldn't find a photo of it online.

i'm waiting for shots of the home in "Hancock." It was really something.

Hate to burst anybody's bubble, but this apartment was a set in Vancouver. What a lovely apartment it would make, though!

Isnt that the same apartment they used in Enchanted? The structure looks very similar.

Wow, being a bridesmaid must pay well.

Can anyone identify the chair that Heigl is sitting on in the fourth picture from the top?

This annoys me - middle America sees movies and TV shows like this and thinks there are huge NY apartments available for an assistant's salary (and they can also afford to fill it with lovely furniture!) The only things worse are the apts on Friends & Seinfeld - rent control aside, they were all unemployed half the time! Grrrr.

Designing the sets for these movies=DREAM JOB. Anyone know how I can sign up?

What about those shades in the very first picture and again where she's sitting at her desk? Maybe it was just me, but I wanted to know where I could get those when I saw the movie.

Anyone know who made them??

I've seen an apartment that big and pretty in Manhattan before.

An architect I know and his lawyer wife rent it in Alphabet City for $4,600 a month.

so yeah, assistant's salary? not so much.
It makes my brain hurt to think how much that place would be in the West Village.
Hell, it'd be $2000 on the border of Brooklyn and Queens.

Speaking of the apartment in Enchanted...beautiful! As much fun to look at as Patrick Dempsey.

willswager, look around online. target used to carry that chair. it's out there. try walmart, bb&b, those sorts of shops.

a friend of mine scored a very large 1br above times square. the previous tenant had been in it for decades with rent control. she got in at $1500 (in '99). she was an assistant but had saved mucho $$ as a legal secretary. having that high rent motivated her to go for bigger jobs.

Lady J, I lived in an apartment that all my friends thought was great, but I'd agree that not much about those photos is realistic except the bitty fridge. I know people whose parents have lived there for 40-50 years. They are the ones with the pre-war apts like this. One guy in my MBA class said he deserved something for having lived in NYC his whole life....me, I moved back to So Cal after 9 yrs living in 450 sq ft, smaller than my freshman year apt. I said "2 college degrees and I'm the dishwasher???"

MargaretR - oh get over it. Whoever thinks NYC is cheap because of what's on TV is just dumb.
And that apartment would be 3000 in my city, which is Stinktown, USA, where noone makes any money.

Always drooling over paint color...anyone have any info/guesses on the brown/taupe walls?

Who designed her office desk at work - love it!
