Continuing with Lawrence Paull's notion that "every Blade Runner set was designed to generate an emotional aura," the interior of Deckard's apartment (whose number is 9732, and was erected on Stage 24A of The Burbank Studios) was built to reflect both the idea of Deckard's bachelorhood and the enclosed, oppressive atmosphere of his manner of employment.

Deckard's apartment was designed by Syd Mead. The set representing that apartment was composed of an entry hall, bathroom, bedroom, living, and dining room. To help select the apartment's fixtures and furnishings, Lawrence Paull used an early 1980s book of futuristic illustrations, High Tech, as "an inspirational guide."
