Sometimes it feels like we know the homes in our favourite TV shows better than our own.
These three artists certainly do, having spent years sketching out the living spaces of America's most beloved sitcoms.
From the neighbouring New York City apartments where Friends characters Chandler and Joey and Monica and Rachel struck up their memorable bond, to the studio pad where Carrie Bradshaw penned her controversial sex columns in Sex and The City, these 15 floorplans show where we watched our favourite episodes take place.

In painstaking detail, the drawings, by artists Inaki Aliste Lizarralde, Mike Bennett and Brandi Roberts - all of whom are self-confessed TV geeks - span seven decades of American popular culture.

Roberts' floor plans include Mad Men from today, The Sopranos from the naughties, Fraiser from the 1990's, The Golden Girls from the 1980's, The Brady Bunch from the 1970's, Bewitched from the 1960s and I Love Lucy from the 1950's.
'My floorplans are great conversation pieces,' she says. 'They generate a lot of interesting dialogue when people get in front of them.'





The South Carolina-based artist says she has created more than 100 floorplans from her favourite TV shows over the years, which she sells for around $50 each.
Tennessee-born artist Mark Bennett describes his works as 'pleasingly nostalgic and vaguely disconcerting' in their premonition of a society obsessed by television and celebrity.
The purely imaginary floorplans are grounded by the dry format of an architect's design, he says.

Meanwhile Spanish artist, Inaki Aliste Lizarralde injects additional life into his fictional TV apartments with bright colours and decorative furniture.
The fabulous floorplans are also available for programs such as Seinfeld, The Simpsons, Happy Days, The Flintstones and The Big Bang Theory among dozens of others.
And Roberts for one isn't about to stop, explaining that when she's not drawing she likes watching television or 'conducting research.'
