I already wrote the articles about the furniture from all other apartments and homes from The Big Bang gang, so when I watched the last episode when Raj invited all his ex-girlfriends to his place, I noticed some interesting pieces of furniture and decor in his living room, and tried to find as similar furniture as possible.
Raj (Rajesh) Koothappali is an Indian astrophysicist that Sheldon and Leonard met at work, and since then he’s a part of the TBBT gang together with them two, Howard Walowitz and Penny. Amy and Bernadette joined the gang a few seasons later.
Rajesh lives in a small apartment with one bedroom that used to be a watch factory. The building where he lives is built in 1951. People who also lived there over these 10 seasons of the show were Raj’s sister Priya when she was in a relationship with Leonard, and even he moved in with for short period, while Raj was staying with Sheldon at the same time.
Stuart also stayed in this apartment during the season 6.
The apartment is decorated simply and with style, as we know that Raj cares about his living space. The style that dominates in this apartment is mid-century modern, with some Indian details like decorative pillows and a tapestry on a bedroom door.
