We get to do the ultimate bachelor pad in the future.'</div> <div> ”Click not only gave Blake a chance to travel into the future, but also, via flashbacks, to the past. “From the start, Frank and I conceived the design of Michael’s house, which is a very important set because a great deal of the movie is set there, and Michael is, by profession, an architect,” says Blake. “He bought this ‘50s house that was decorated in a ‘70s style with plans to eventually redo it and have this really cool house. But, because Michael is a workaholic, he never gets around to it. It’s his wife who clears it out and redoes it.”</div> <div> <B> <script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script>  </B></div> <div> In creating where Michael will live in the future, Blake conceived “this crazy apartment that’s really cold — black with grays and blues. Since Michael changes as his life goes along, we wanted to create a strong contrast between it and his old life, a regular family life in which all the colors are warm and inviting — tactile materials like stone and wood in very earthy tones. Then you see Michael’s apartment and it’s slick, shiny and hard, very unnatural, angular, pointy and sharp.” The “Beyond” section of the Bed, Bath & Beyond store that Michael visits, which is where Morty resides, was designed to be “eccentric,” says Blake, “like the character of Morty. It had to have this weird eerie feeling, like the whole world back there in ‘Beyond’ is kind of strange. So we mixed old and new, objects that looked very modern, beside things that were very old. In a Bed Bath & Beyond store, you’re used to seeing bath items, beds, linens and comforters. Then you see this door with the sign ‘Beyond Time’ glowing at you and there’s a transition. When you open that door and enter, you definitely get the sense you’re going to another place. It has this super-long hallway from which Michael sees Morty grinding on this key, though he doesn’t know what it is. But there are sparks and it’s very mysterious. When he meets him, Morty is singing a song and he’s wearing these weird glasses that were designed to flip up so you can see his  very strange eyes.”</div> <div> One of the essential elements of Blake’s design was the universal remote that propels the story forward. “We figured we would make it simple instead of hightech,” he says, “because basically it’s a remote for dummies, for the average guy. When I designed it, I wanted it to be comfortable to hold, not like so many remotes. I took a piece of clay and squished my fingers into it and then molded in where I thought the buttons should be. I wanted it to be super ergonomic, to feel  good in your hand with a good weight to it and a very organic feel.” </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> This website is created and designed by MovieGrande International, 2006</div> <div> This is an unofficial website with educational purpose.
