Ponies (Peacock) | Production Designer Sara K White on Spy Design

Production Designer Sara K White (Emmy-nominated for The Flight Attendant) joins Decorating Pages to break down the production design of Peacock’s Ponies—a 1970s spy series built through color, texture, ceilings, and period logistics that would break a normal person.

In this episode: the CIA “bubble” room design inspired by sound baffles, a women-forward Soviet beauty salon sequence, and the Kombromat surveillance facility—a tunnel maze filled with 70+ matching 1970s TVs that took months to source.
