<div><br/></div><p>It’s the show that keeps us on our toes every night—<em>Dirty Linen</em>, starring some of the biggest names in local showbiz like Joel Torre, John Arcilla, Janine Gutierrez, Francine Diaz, Tessie Tomas, Janice De Belen and Angel Aquino, is the series of the moment for various reasons. One: a star-studded cast. Two: an interesting and relevant story plot. And three: a jaw-dropping set that presents the extravagance of the aristocratic family residing in the mansion where everything—all the crazy and gory moments included—take place.</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/873b9f88-acf1-4349-9779-9e7703f5a18e_dirty linen set mansion 00.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">The Fiero Family of &#x27;Dirty Linen&#x27;<span id="isPasted" style="color:rgb(65, 65, 65);letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;display:inline !important;float:none"><em> @nancyarcega07  </em></span></span></span></span></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/living/tips/psid-dean-pojie-pambid-on-how-to-style-the-home/35003" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">PSID’s Pojie Pambid Shares Home Styling Tips For The Modern City Dweller</a></div><div><br/></div><p>The set, arranged at the clubhouse of <a href="https://stalucialand.com.ph/projects/summit-point/" target="_blank">Summit Point </a>in Lipa City, Batangas, is spearheaded by veteran production designer <strong>Nancy Arcega</strong>, with the help of architect <strong>Vanessa Cabasag</strong>. Pegged as New York’s Hamptons estate, the Fiero residence screams nothing but opulence. From the Versailles-style garden to the eclectic-glam interiors, plush and modern furnishings to rich, dramatic colors, prints, and textures, the mansion fits its character to a T.

Case in point: Doña Cielo, played by Tessie Tomas, matched with Jed Yabut’s Pabo accent chair, which befits her strong and arrogant character. “<em>Si </em>Doña Cielo <em>‘yung tipong hindi basta uupo sa</em> ordinary couch,” Nancy explains. Meanwhile, their wealth is excessively presented in select items, like the Versace and Royal Albert dinnerware, flashy sculptures by Herminio Tan, paintings by Angelo Roxas, and even the custom-made long dining table shipped from Iloilo.</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/2fb2b9c1-6fe3-4a14-9dec-e1dfa2fc6a3d_dirty linen mansion herminio tan art 1.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">Scuplture by Herminio Tan in &#x27;Dirty Linen&#x27; mansion set.<span id="isPasted" style="color:rgb(65, 65, 65);letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;display:inline !important;float:none"><em> @herminio.tan.art  </em></span></span></span></span></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/d7165b8a-8270-4499-a302-94205a9ce948_snapinsta.app_1080_327889537_1388502195231341_304781445960270565_n.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">Jed Yabut&#x27;s Pabo Chair in the &#x27;Dirty Linen&#x27; set.<span id="isPasted" style="color:rgb(65, 65, 65);letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;display:inline !important;float:none"><em> @jedyabutfurniture  </em></span></span></span></span></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/living/home-tours/jennifer-lopez-bel-air-home-for-sale-for-42-5-m-us/34865" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Jennifer Lopez’s Bel Air Mansion Can Also Get A Second Chance For $42.5M</a></div><div><br/></div><p>The different fittings are also intended to help the narrative, like the wall lamps to enhance the drama within the space, the dark hues that dominantly dress the mansion to shrowd the family’s secrets in mystery, and more. </p><div><br/></div><p>All while perfecting <em>Dirty Linen</em>’s set, the production designer also sought different heritage sites to achieve the Fiero mansion residence.
