The movie Fifty Shades of Grey was one of the most anticipated flicks of 2015, and blazed into cinemas on Valentine’s Day sharp. In case you haven’t read Fifty Shades of Grey, the novel that was later adapted into a movie was rated R21 with a 20 minutes sex scene – and was completely uncut.
If you’ve read the book it’s based on, you’ve probably had the change to imagine for yourself how Mr Christian Grey’s penthouse, and his more laviciously-named Red Room of Pain might look like.
And if you have no idea what this book is, and have never heard from it, you’re too young. Stop scrolling and exit this article now.
Feed your imagination with these pictures of the original apartment, and furnishings used in the film sets.

Located along 1920 4th Ave, Seattle, the luxury condominium Escala Seattle was picked as Christian Grey’s home. The condominium apartment building has a befitting penthouse that soars above Seattle’s skyline.
Back in 2015 when the movie’s trailer was release, fans were seen lining up to take pictures with the Escala Seattle condominium’s front door.
The apartment also boasts super dreamy interiors.

The movie set’s home was up for rental on Airbnb for several few weeks – but not for long. The rental link was subsequently taken down nearing to the movie’s launch.

Mr Grey will see you now.
This was the “vanilla” master bedroom that eventually belonged to Anastasia Steele, the female protagonist of the book and movie.
Unfortunately, the Red Room of Pain was too R21 to show. If you’re an aspiring Mr Grey or Anastasia Steele, here are some real furniture pieces that were used in the movie’s Red Room of Pain that you can actually buy and adorn your own house with:
Fifty Shades of Grey Movie – Furniture from the movie set
Designed by Janet Morais, CEO of Koket, a New York City-based furniture brand inspired by the French Art de Vivre (translate: art of living). The movie Fifty Shades of Grey’s furniture came from one of Koket’s collections aptly named “Guilty Pleasures”.
These evocative furniture pieces truly embody the film’s aura of desire, passion and power.

Koket Mademoiselle Armoire Cabinet
Koket’s Mademoiselle Armoire cabinet was heavily inspired by the French decorative arts – evident from the filigree metal butterflies centered on the doors.

All of these pieces were one-of-a-kind and handcrafted.
