A sharp contrast from the exterior space, the interior Torrance Living space is yellow and loudly floral. The interior is immediately amalgamated; referencing both a pillow shown within The Boulder Living Space (No.7) and Jack’s interview shirt; (The Maze Device).
Danny’s Space
The interior of Danny’s space is never shown in full but from No.13, the viewer can see that the room is a creamy yellow. This is important to remember because come No.48, Kubrick is going to bathe the space in the same green as Room 237’s bathroom. In No.50, it’s Danny’s bedding that’;s turned green. By No.54, things are back to yellow again.
Whether the book shown within the inset shelves are from The Torrance’s or they’re just decorations, one thing’s for sure- it mimics the Torrance living space, Danny’s cluttered shelves, and the truth that the problems have been brought with them. This is part of the American History Narrative, Domestic Abuse Narrative, and The Maze Narrative Device.
The sink inset reflects both No.6 and the conversation Danny has with Tony in the reflection, but also No.48’s Room 237 bathroom as we’ll be shown later. This links to The Maze, Domestic Abuse, Ghost Story Narratives.
The framed bears are a theme that represents Danny across the entire film.
The bedroom is a light pink with very few furnishings. The lamps and small vase are indigenous styled and there’s a wood plaque on the wall that shows a view of the water and a mountain, reflecting the first shot of the film. This ties into the American History Narrative.
The space for Wendy & Jack’s bedroom doesn’t have a door, just a curtain. (See: Boundaries)
The pattern on the curtain is a neutral version of the pattern on Room 237’s carpet. This ties in with the Domestic Abuse Narrative and The Maze Narrative Device.
The bathroom is a sparse white with a black band in tile. Having Jack call it “homey” is foreshadowing to him attempting to kill Wendy and Danny in this same space, a clear tie in with Domestic Abuse Narrative.
