Sometimes it feels like we know the homes in our favourite TV shows better than our own.

These three artists certainly do, having spent years sketching out the living spaces of some of the most loved U.S. sitcoms from over the decades.

From the neighbouring New York City apartments where Friends characters Chandler and Joey and Monica and Rachel struck up their memorable bond, to the studio pad where Carrie Bradshaw penned her controversial sex columns in Sex and The City, these 15 floorplans show where we watched our favourite episodes take place.

In painstaking detail, the drawings, by artists Inaki Aliste Lizarralde, Mike Bennett and Brandi Roberts - all of whom are self-confessed TV geeks - span seven decades of American popular culture.

Roberts' floor plans include Mad Men from today, Fraiser from the 1990's, The Golden Girls from the 1980's, The Jeffersons from the 1970s, The Jetsons from the 1960's, and I Love Lucy from the 1950's.

'My floorplans are great conversation pieces,' the artists says. 'They generate a lot of interesting dialogue when people get in front of them.'

Sex and the City

Frasier

A more upmarket apartment befitting a wealthy psychiatrist, this is the home of Dr Crane Frasier, star of the comedy that ran for more than a decade

The South Carolina-based artist says she has created more than 100 floorplans from her favourite TV shows over the years, which she sells for around $50 each.

Tennessee-born artist Mark Bennett describes his works as 'pleasingly nostalgic and vaguely disconcerting' in their premonition of a society obsessed by television and celebrity.

The purely imaginary floorplans are grounded by the dry format of an architect's design, he says.

Batman

Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson lived in Wayne Manor, Gotham City, in the iconic Batman film. Here, there residence of the millionaire who transformed into the superhero of is penned out for fans to admire

Home of the Jetsons

Perhaps one of the most memorable features of cartoon, the Jetsons, was their space-age circular home. It is designed here with a resemblance to how it would have appeared in the show

The Jeffersons

Without the glamour of a New York apartment, this is the 1970s-style home of The Jeffersons, who were the stars of a sitcom running from 1975 to 1985

Meanwhile Spanish artist, Inaki Aliste Lizarralde injects additional life into his fictional TV apartments with bright colours and decorative furniture.

The fabulous floorplans are also available for programs such as Seinfeld, The Simpsons, Happy Days, The Flintstones and The Big Bang Theory among dozens of others.

And Roberts for one isn't about to stop, explaining that when she's not drawing she likes watching television or 'conducting research.'

Happy Days

Anyone living in the home should just have to be happy, just like The Cunninghams were in the TV series Happy Days which ran from 1974 to 1984

Golden Girls

Perhaps the most exotic of all the homes in the various sitcoms that have been sketched out as floorplans, the palm trees and stone pathways can be seen in this drawing for the home of Bea Arthur, Betty White, Rue McClanahan and Estelle Getty in Golden Girls
