Here’s How To Make Your Home More Like Monica’s Apartment From ‘Friends’

Monica has gorgeous exposed brick in her kitchen. To emulate that you can either go with this classic brick yourself or choose another unfinished look to sort of remix it.

If you want to go the down the brick road, you don't have to go with the standard. Explore your color choices. Just look at how fresh and clean this kitchen looks with a painted brick backsplash. Plus, those exposed beams really give it that extra "Friends" vibe.

You love the natural look of the brick, but you want smoother lines? Get stoned and never look back!

Bricks and stones aren't going to work for everyone and that's okay. You can remain in that natural zone with a nice wooden backsplash instead. The reddish tone seen here is a cabin-like take on the same color palette from Monica's kitchen.

What's the point of having amazing dishware if people only see it when it's in use? That's one of the main reasons an open concept in cabinetry is a look you'll want to incorporate into your Monica-home transformation.

Making the decision to show off those dishes means having dishes worth showing off. Just imagine how great this Zanzibar collection would look against those turquoise blue shelves.

Whether or not you're career is in the culinary realm like Monica's doesn't matter. Having your pots and pans hanging on the wall or above the island makes your kitchen look super legit. Like "Chopped" legit.

A rack like this circular one would be perfect for either a home with an island or an apartment with very little cabinet space. It's not just for hanging, but the top can be used as shelf space too!

Zesproka offers a more traditional wall rack for those who want their pots and pans on display on the wall instead of overhead.

Having a dinette set can sometimes be a luxury when it comes to living in a tiny New York apartment. If you happen to have the room, take full advantage just like Monica did and get yourself a place to have meals, even if the chairs don't match. In front of the TV isn't always the best for dinner.

These out-there purple chairs are a bold choice, but if you want your dinette set to look like Monica's, you better go bold or go (get inspiration from someone else's) home.

This charming chair with an off-white finish is super similar to one from Monica's funky mismatched set. Its country-antique look is not something you'd expect in an NYC apartment, but the same can be said for a lot of Monica's furniture.

You'll need a table with a wooden top like this one to anchor your dinette set. A round table top will help make the mismatched chairs look like a pulled-together shabby chic look.

These floral seat covers may look like they are for your granny, but if Monica made them look cool, then you can, too. Give your "Friends" a comfy place to sit when the come over to hang in your dinette.

One of the most memorable parts of Monica's apartment was the vibrant colors. The kitchen cabinets were turquoise while her living room was a lavender that left us all yearning for the chance to be surrounded by walls just as beautiful one day.

If you're not ready to go all the way with color, do an accent wall. Paint only one in a vibrant color so as to not go too overboard.

No one wants to deal with all-around carpet anymore. Apparently, neither did Monica back in the day. Her hardwood floors were amazing, but everyone knows you have to define your sitting area with a nice area rug. Hmm, think that's why it's called that?

Give your room a more decadent look with this Kashan rug. You don't have to have something that matches too well with your walls. If you've got a vibrant wall, try and go more neutral though with the rug. You don't want the two fighting for attention.

Don't think you have to go with traditional rugs. Give your Monica-inspired apartment an updated feel with a bold print. You can always head in a more modern direction with something like this floral designed from Rugshop.

Don't be bland when it comes to your curtains. Once again, Monica was rocking the old grandma florals in this department but she made us jealous of them when they were featured draped across the window that looked into the naked guy's place.
