Streaming service Netflix hasn\u2019t just revolutionised the way we watch TV, it\u2019s made a massive impact on the way TV shows look, too. Whilst shows like Interior Design Masters, Dream Home Makeover and Tiny House Nation overtly offer interior design inspiration, what about those visually striking shows outside the interior design category?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There have always been shows with their own distinctive sense of style. The dark limited palette of Twin Peaks, the fifties fashions of Mad Men. But with Netflix productions, the aesthetic of the show is often as intrinsic as its characters are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The platform is stuffed with shows whose unusual looks and amazing interiors make them instantly recognisable. From the unmistakable eighties vibe of Stranger Things to the undefinable mix of modern and retro in Sex Education, these are shows with their identity stamped all over every part of their designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All these unique styles inspired us to build our own interior mood boards, based on the style and sets of some of Netflix\u2019s most popular series. After all, we’re sure they’ve had some incredible interior designers get to work on their shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s a collection of our favourite Netflix shows, picking out the key design choices that could help you bring the essence of these iconic shows into your own home.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

1. Sex Education<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Sex Education interior is perfect for those who want it all. Bright spaceman colours and muted autumnal palettes. Vintage mid-century stylings with modern technology. Eighties American high school style and the wilds of the Welsh border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The magic of Moordale is the way it builds intense connections between the discordant but we\u2019ve taken our inspiration from the Milburn\u2019s chalet home which features more of a set theme. The floral furnishings, the William Morris paper and the wicker furniture work against all odds to create a Seventies style that works brilliantly for the modern morals of the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interior design checklist:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

  • floral soft furnishings<\/li>

    • wooden flooring<\/li>
    • artwork<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

      Not the easiest aesthetic to recreate, but we think it\u2019s worth giving a go. Just don\u2019t forget, a true touch of Sex Education chic, you\u2019ll need a liberal scattering of phallic art too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      2. Sweet Tooth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Just like the show takes a post-apocalyptic hellscape and twists it, we\u2019ve picked out the cosy cabin vibe for this interior. Totally tactile, with suede upholstery,\u00a0 wool blankets and quilting all featured, this is a safe, comfy place to survive the end of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      What you need for your design projects:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
      \n
      • A warm colour pallette<\/li>
      • Checked fabric<\/li>
      • Suede and wooden furniture<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

        • Rugs and blankets<\/li>
        • Maps<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

          And for anyone who\u2019s concerned, we can assure you the antlers were humanely harvested.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

          3. The Queen\u2019s Gambit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
          \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

          Leaning towards the \u2018grandmillennial\u2019 trend, our Queen\u2019s Gambit interior isn\u2019t scared to show a little chintz. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Flooded with florals, a riot of pinks and that fabulous four-poster, this is a fiercely feminine bedroom. Tempered with a touch of green and the structure of chequered wallpaper, this is a style for someone who isn\u2019t afraid to teeter on the narrow line between too much and just enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          <\/span>

          Useful tips for creating the style:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

              4. Ratched<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
              \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

              Beautiful and brilliant, vibrant blues and greens are the stars of the show in Ratched and our room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Echoing the halls of St Lucia hospital, with neutral walls punctuated with peacock uniforms, we\u2019ve filled our room with bright furniture and contrasting accessories. Pulling through mid-century furniture, with cool curves and spiked legs the nurse herself would appreciate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Contrast comes from a few splashes of pink. A gentler take for nervous dispositions who aren\u2019t quite up to the frequent flashes of crimson you see on the screen.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  5. Cobra Kai<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
                  \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                  Traditional Japanese touches dominate our dojo style interior for Cobra Kai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  <\/span>
                  \n

                  Key design elements:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                  \n
                  \n
                  • Shoji screen<\/li>
                  • Japanese lantern<\/li>
                  • Wooden flooring<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
                    \n
                    • Bonsai tree<\/li>
                    • Low furniture<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

                      A carefully cultivated bonsai, a shoji-style screen and floor cushion seating all cement the theme of this interior. A flash of crimson, a legendary crane, build together to create a sense of balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      \n\n\n\n

                      6. Bridgerton<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
                      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                      The style sense of Bridgerton is so strong, it even coined its own name: Regencycore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      Turning up the volume on the pale pastels usually found in Regency dramas, Bridgerton is not afraid to flaunt its colours. From the beautiful Wedgewood blue of Daphne\u2019s family to the glorious greens of the Featherington household, these are Victorian stylings with plenty of luxurious swag(s).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      Add a couple of fainting couches, regency stripes and champagne highlights to suggest a little more Victorian authenticity then complete the look with a gold mirror or gilt edge. We’re sure season 2 will treat us to yet more period-style inspiration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      How to do-it-yourself:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                      \n
                      \n
                      • Victorian-style wooden furniture<\/li>
                      • Large, gilded mirrors<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
                        \n
                        • Floral wallpaper<\/li>
                        • Panelled decorative wall mouldings<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
                          \n\n\n\n

                          7. Stranger Things<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
                          \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                          The Stranger Things style is built on nostalgia, a love letter to the eighties. Or, at least, the aesthetic of American horror films…in the eighties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          Taking our cues from the iconic Byer\u2019s home, we coupled a classic brown couch with the pops of yellow that you see throughout their whole house. We weren\u2019t sure about fairy lights outside of the festive season, but a multi-coloured garland has an all-year appeal.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          Finishing touches here are a retro rotary dial phone and alphabet print, because how else will you communicate with your loved ones when they\u2019re lost in the Upside Down?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
