The Holiday movie sets – Get That look!

 The interiors were created on a sound stage. Interestingly, the online “chat” about this stage set called it contemporary, but I think it’s really more an updated traditional look (and not unlike their set for Diane Keaton’s home in “Something’s Gotta Give“). Most of the furniture is pretty classic looking, covered in simple cotton slip covers. Several of the chairs, sofas and even the bed have “wings”, creating a soft, comfortable look.

I do have to say, I’ve never seen so much seating in an actual interior. The kitchen looks like it could seat 12-14 people – between the table, the counter seating and some upholstered pieces. The living room has a day bed/chaise, sofa and several arm chairs. By virtue of the fact that this house is so significantly larger than the The Holiday English Country House, there are actually a ton more photos to share.

Since the movie premiered in 2006 (I’m updating this post in 2022) I think our interiors have simplified a little. So, while everything in this living room would still look fresh and modern today, it’s a bit overly jammed packed and “styled” looking, don’t you think?

This long cross hall with the wall of windows has always been one of my favorite views in this house.

I’m not sure we ever saw the inside of the room off the hall with the brown walls. I wonder if they only decorated the part we saw? Probably.

Entering into the kitchen area.

A pretty little moment, though am not sure where in the house this was.

The Holiday big ass media room. Love the line up of cozy looking chaise lounges.

And the bathroom with the cool storage cabinets and gardens beyond.

The Holiday LA House Backyard and Pool

Who can forget the vision of Iris jumping with joy when she ran outside and saw this pool?!
