From today Side Effects is available on DVD and Blu-ray...so is Minimal USA!
Minimal USA’s VERVE kitchen designed for The Brewster Carriage House is, in fact, featured in the movie Side
Effects starring Jude Law, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Rooney Mara and Channing
Tatum.
One of the
apartments in the historical building in Nolita, NYC has been selected to host
the last movie by the Academy Award–winning film director Steven Soderbergh.
Jude Law
interprets the psychiatrist Jonathan Banks who lives with his wife Dierdre
Banks (Vinessa Shaw) and their son in this open space apartment. The kitchen
was designed by Stefano Venier, Minimal USA’s art director and
manufactured by Minimal in Italy.

Thanks to its
sleek and refined design, the kitchen is framed many times during the movie and
even in the official trailer. The kitchen is the ambient chosen to shoot one of
the crucial scenes of the film in which the psychiatrist and his wife have an
important discussion.
Also, for a
full minute, Minimal USA’s VERVE kitchen takes up the entire
screen whilst Jude Law, from behind, is concentrating on studying the case at
his desk.

This is the
second time that one of our custom kitchens has been featured in a Hollywood
production. In 2011, Minimal USA was
asked to design a kitchen for Patrick Dempsey, the bad guy in the movie Transformers 3 – Dark of the Moon
starring, among others, Shia LaBeouf, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and John
Turturro.

These are
just two examples of how the aesthetic sense and the commitment to custom design of Minimal USA create bespoke
sophisticated products fit for the red carpet…even without make-up!
