If the Downton Abbey sets are any sign, Stevens is about to go viral again. Over the weekend, he posted pictures on Facebook of his latest creation: The cast of Seinfeld and Jerry Seinfeld's apartment from the show.
"I think I designed Seinfeld pretty quickly after Downton came out," Stevens, 24 of Rochester, N.Y., told Popculturology. "I got a lot of suggestions for projects, but they were either things that had already been done (and done really well), or I had no interest in."
