This Is Our Christmas

Role

Production Designer

Director

Christian Filippella

Year

2018

Format

Feature Film

A holiday family film centered on a beloved neighborhood bakery under threat. The central design challenge was a complete transformation of a real guest house into a fully operational bakery from the ground up, converting the entire interior, patio, and exterior facade into a space that could carry the heart of the story. Every detail of the bakery world was built and dressed to feel lived in and specific, creating an environment the film could credibly hinge on.
