also worked on Orlok's chapel, the interior and exterior of the Empusa (the ship Orlok sails on to Wisburg), and Orlok's carriage. The carriage was based on an image I had found of a 16th century carriage that Elizabeth I had given to the Czar of Russia. Working with myself and Ondřej, Concept Artist Giovanni Silva designed the bas-reliefs for the carriage. The Harding's house was a change of pace from Orlok's castle and the Romanian village. It was a large, wealthy merchant's townhouse decorated in the Biedermeier style of the era. Three separate floors of the house were built on Stage 8 at Barrandov, utilizing the pit to accommodate the staircase on the master bedroom/nursery floor. I designed a 3D model of the set before arriving in Prague (the final time) and put it into the capable hands of Art Director Magdalena Nováková as soon as I arrived. Magda and Set Designer Kristína Hudečková produced all the working drawings for the Harding's house, the Harding family tomb, Knock's cell at the Wisburg hospital, and the Hutter's bedroom and parlour sets. The Hutter's modest home sits in juxtaposition to the Harding's townhouse, but it also points to Thomas Hutter's aspirations. Even with his humble means, he has tried to decorate his home in the latest fashion and, to the extent possible, emulate his wealthy friend. In describing the journey we've been on; I've tried to mention many of the significant sets we produced in Prague and credit a few of the people who worked on them. In the end, over sixty sets, both big and small, were created for Nosferatu. There were many contributors to this endeavor who deserve recognition but whose names, B.
