The 64th annual Emmy Awards are just around the corner.  Some of the 2012 Emmy nominees have amazing production design, even featuring some Lamps Plus products on set!  Here are some easy tips on how to get the look of Emmy nominated home decor.

Comedy Series: Comedy sets are usually contemporary, light-hearted and fun, but another major theme this year is quirky.  All of the nominated comedies this year really push the envelope with their character development and additionally in their set decor. Creating a funky, bold and colorful space gives you the opportunity to showcase an eclectic table lamp or area rug.

Drama Series: This category is split this year between period pieces and contemporary stories.  Both, however, rely on moodier sets that inevitably create drama.  To achieve this look in your home use low lighting to create depth in shadows. These shows, especially the period pieces, also do a great job of mixing in glamorous, decadent crystal chandeliers and furniture pieces that offer an extra air of dramatic sophistication.

Variety Shows: This category is all about creating the illusion of a living room.  The set design for these shows is great when translated to smaller spaces in your home.  If you have a small nook in your home that needs decorating, you can create a cozy vignette that offers seating solutions in a chic and comfortable way.
