"One of the issues with Tessa's was that the victim had to hang from the ceiling. Usually our ceilings are made of stretched muslin which would not bare the load of the stunt persons weight. We had to make sure sections of the ceiling could carry the weight. To solve this I came up with the type of poured beam ceiling that you find in NY lofts. We added the wallpaper to create chaos and tension to her environment. It's in total contrast to the rest of her apartment." Production Designer Alfred Sole
