It’s the house that everyone seems to love. The Hampton’s beach house from the movie, Something’s Gotta Give.
The fabulous kitchen and dining room. The must-have living room. This house/set design was the reason I bought the movie on DVD!
If you love great movie homes, you must go visit the ladies of The Skirted Roundtable and listen to their interview with Beth Rubino, the Set Decorator for Something’s Gotta Give.
Beth talks about the process of creating these beautiful sets and you’ll be kinda shocked to hear how they created the iconic rug in the living room {above}.
The Something’s Gotta Give house is going to be the inspiration for the 2010 YMCA Dream House. This year’s house is a lake house – our first ever! {For those of you not familiar with Lake Erie, it looks like an ocean – you can’t see land across or from side to side.} So the Something’s Gotta Give house is a perfect inspiration for our designers.
I’m excited to announce that I have been asked to be the design coordinator for this year’s house! I’m very honored and a bit overwhelmed – it means I help determine the color palette and other major aspects of the house. I have also been asked to design the kitchen, eat-in area and the living room. Wow! I’m going to be pretty busy these next few months but that’s a good thing!
I hope you enjoy the interview with Beth – so interesting! Thanks ladies of The Skirted Round Table!

Thanks so much for mentioning The Skirted Roundtable. Our chat with Beth Rubino was a lot of fun. Good luck with your decorator house – looking forward to see the photographs when it’s complete!

Congratulations!!!!! That’s fabulous! Can’t wait to see the end result!
Hey, Diana. I’ve been a little MIA lately…having a senior in high school and getting ready to send him to college has been wild!
I love the house in that movie, too. In fact, I’ve watched it back to back several times because it’s so amazing.
I have a design question. I love color (on the walls). However, I have a difficult time matching colors that go together (i.e., I may choose a green that has a white base to it…but, when I chose the taupe color…it seems more gray). Is there an easier way to make sure my colors will work well together?
