Frasier's Floorplan

[Kathrynethegreat]

Anyone ever wonder about the floorplan to Frasier's apartment? I have seen a
few that people have made, but I found some mistakes in them and decided to
make my own. It is on my website, please check it out and tell me what you
think!

That's pretty much how i imagined it. When does Daphne talk about the
guestbathroom? Never heard her say that before. Also, Frasier's room has a
balcony? And also, i would think the powder room was a little bt more into the
wall, from the picture it looks like it juts out. ANd, daphne's door is alittle
bit more to the right. We see the hallway and her door in "Daphne's Room". We
see Martin's room in "Chess Pains".

Maybe someone from "Frasier" can varify this. I have always wondered if the set
is actually built like this. When people go out to the balcony, do they change
to a different set (i didn't think so because you can see them from the
inside). Also, the outside hallway: is that a different set or is part of the
other one?

Pretty Good. Here's something I was thinking about. Which eps can you see
each part of the apartment in?

Here's what I can think of (excluding main Kitchen, Living Room, Balcony):

Daphne's Room: "Daphne's Room" (A.K.A. "A Room With a View")
Powder Room: "Kisses Sweeter Than Wine"
Martin's Room and Hallway: "Chess Pains"
Frasier's Room: "Frasier Crane's Day Off"
Frasier's Bathroom: "Daphne Hates Sherry" and "Seat of Power"

Only 3 Days left.....Whatever will we talk about next.....

yes, Frasier's room does have a balcony. I know Daphne's door is a little more
to the right...sorry, my bad. I looked over the powder room and that's what it
looks like. The bathroom in the back is mentioned in (I think, I'm not sure)

Just saw the floorplan, and am quite impressed. I want to live there!
Could I suggest that the room marked as storage is perhaps a 4th bedroom?
Do we know for sure that it isn't? For example, when Freddy stays, where
does he sleep? Scratch that, have just realized that Simon was sleeping on
the couch, so it obviously can't be a bedroom. Back to the thinking couch.

First, the layout of Frasier's apartment is an unrealistic attempt because
of the varying descriptions.

When they first hired Daphne, Martin said she could have Fras' study that
was across or down the hall from his.
We all know her room is near the kitchen, and why would Frasier house his
study in room with a bath???

Then you also have included a bath in Martin's room, three rooms-three bath,
I haven't seen an apartment that does that and includes a guest bath. What's
the need for a guest bath when all the rooms have their own baths and the
living room has a loo for the guest??????????

From Chess Pains, I believe Martin's room is down and across the hall from
Frasier but I'm trying to remember from which direction Daphne entered after
Fras set off the fire alarm. If she came in from Martin's room, then his is
the first on the left and places Fras as the second on the right. However,
if she cam in from Fras' room, that would put him on the first left and
Martin on the last right.

The kitchen is also an intriguing layout as well because contextually
speaking the Living Room and Daphne's room could end flush but the Kitchen,
in at least one episode protrudes further than both of these. My question
is, I haven't seen the desk or chair that you have included in the living
room, which episodes have you seen these?

Also, In A Room With A View, Daphne's bathroom is directly across from the
hallway door, while her closet is somewhat caddy corner although this is
probably more for ease of filming than architectual creativity.

I'll try to view these episodes tonight to see where I'm mistaken.

okay, I watched all of these eps to make sure everything was correct,
unfortuanately I think they have changes Daphne's room around a couple times,
because her back and her closet are in different areas diffierent eps. I did
the best I could. Yes, I know that Frasier's study was supposed to be across
from Martin's room, but the writers obviously decided on changing that. Martins
room is not across the hall from Frasier's room, it is next to it, I checked.
Why is there a guest bath when all the bedrooms have baths and there is a
powder room? Don't ask me! i just go according to what I see and what I hear
mentioned on the show. The desk and the chair is seen often, and I'm very
surprised that you have never seen it. It is a black desk and a red chair.
Okay, I will admit that the kitchen is really weird, but again...I did not make
it up! I swear that this is an accurate floorplan aside from the fact that
Daphne's door needs to be a little more to the right. But...check out the
episodes and see for yourselves.

And you are right: they have made changes since the show started.

thank you soooo very much for complementing my floorplan! For once nobody has
anything to argue with! Thank you charles!

[Kristy Miller]

Oh, I didn't mean that I was argueing with your floorplan, just that writers
have made it nearly impossible to replicate.

After watching Chess Pains and Daphne's Room, here's what I've come up with:
The hall turns left at the wall size painting or print. The first door on
the right is Fras and the second one is Martin's.
The only door on the left was across from Martin's room, probably the guest
bathroom. In Chess Pains, Martin's couldn't have a closet to the right of
his bed, so the doorway that is on the left must be his closet. I can't
recall anyone refering to him having a bath in his room, but if they did,
maybe they were refering to the guest bath as his because he's the only one
that uses it. The guest bathroom should be turned vertically for two
reasons: one it would eliminate that mysterious storage space and secondly,
the front half-bathroom needs to be moved in somewhat. When you walk into
the apartment, you should be able to pretty much walk in a straight line,
behind the sofa, all the way to the bar, in your version you'd walk straight
into the TV.
The kitchen and bar probably should be moved in more because the dining
table somewhat blocks the entrance to the kitchen while it doesn't exactly
extend to the bar. I've only seen two scenes in Daphne's room: A Room With A
View and To Thine Ownself Be True, and to be honest, I didn't see the
entire scene between Mel and Daphne wo I have to go with the earlier version
where (where Frasier 1st enters Daphne's room) her bed is to the left and
caddy corner,the left wall jets out a bit and takes a 45 degree
angle(contains the only window) towards the bathroom door that is directly
across from the entrance. The wall extends another foot or so before making
a 45 degrees turn back towards the inner wall. This is where her closet
faces. Her closet door is similar to the door we see in Martin's room. On
the other side of the closet opening, the door makes another 45 degree turn
to meet the wall where her dresser or wardrobe is against. I remember in
that same epsiode the bed seemed to turn in the latter scenes but I'm
convinced that that was just the camera angle.

I remember the small desk and chair just to the right of the kitchen but I
don't remember a chair that faces the couch, which reminds me, Martin's
chair is way off and needs to be moved closer to the couch.

I actually think you should repost the website after the hubbub over the
premier has settled down, obviously the post got buried because I think you
would've had a lot more response.
