Hey, saw your message. I have pondered over this a lot too! It is one of the interesting aspects of the set design.
Just a guess, but I think the boxes were added to just dress up the set and keep the windows from being so noticeable. They sure do a mighty good job of simulating sunlight outsite of those windows don't they. You know, the interior sets were on a soundstage. All lighting is artificial. I think another reason may be to provide a more solid background for the actors that would not be too distracting. I am always interested in the arctecture of the sets. Another thing to notice is that in the houses, all of the doors and windows have sheers, to diffuse the backdrops outside of the windows to keep them from looking so fake. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Want to start your own business?
