🍿 Our most-read Film and Furniture website feature 🍿 Our most-read Film and Furniture website features of 2025 - Screen interiors you loved (counting down from No.5–No.1)

Furniture and interiors continue to do some of the quietest — and most powerful — storytelling in film.
Here are the Film and Furniture features you read most in 2025, counting down to No.1.

No.5 — The Substance
Directed by @coralie_fargeat, production designer Stanislas Reydellet created Elizabeth’s Los Angeles apartment as a vast, sparsely furnished space that reflects isolation and detachment, with deliberately out-of-time furniture reinforcing the film’s unsettling psychology.

No.4 — A Complete Unknown
Directed by @jamesmangold, and designed by François @audouy with set decoration by Regina Graves @reginamgee, Bob Dylan’s early-1960s New York apartment was meticulously recreated using original photographs, with period furniture and a portable record player anchoring the film’s sense of authenticity.

No.3 — Fantastic Four: First Steps
Directed by Matt Shakman, production designer @kasfarahani and set decortaor @jilleazis shaped the Baxter apartment as a warm, mid-century-inspired home within a glass skyscraper, complete with a sunken conversation pit and sculptural fireplace that prioritise liveability over spectacle.

No.2 — The Room Next Door
Directed by Pedro Almodóvar, Martha’s Manhattan apartment with production design by @inbaldada is anchored by a turquoise sofa with circular bolster arms and red piping — a piece that carries emotional weight in a space where colour and furniture shape the film’s most intimate scenes.

No.1 — The Brutalist
Directed by @@bradycorbet, production designer Judy Becker @filmdesigndissectionlab transformed Van Buren’s library from a dark Art Deco interior into a light-filled modernist space, complete with hinged plywood bookcases and a striking chaise with a built-in book stand — a defining moment in the film’s architectural language.

Furniture and interiors continue to do some of the quietest — and most powerful — storytelling in film.
These were the F&F features you read most in 2025, counting down from No.10.

No.10 — Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
Tim Burton’s return to the Deetz house revealed a dining room of muted greys and golds, where production designer @markscrutondesign and set decorator @DavidMorison1 used curved glass furniture and Apparatus lighting to blur refinement with the supernatural.

No.9 — The Phoenician Scheme
Directed by Wes Anderson, the grand entrance gallery — designed by Adam Stockhausen with set decoration by Anna Pinnock — draws on European palazzos and trompe l’oeil craftsmanship to define Korda’s meticulously controlled world.

No.8 — Wicked
Directed by @JonMChu, Nathan Crowley and @leesandales designed Shiz University as a blend of American grandeur, Moorish arches and Venetian courtyards, with Glinda and Elphaba’s dorm room anchoring the spectacle in a lived-in space.

No.7 — Conclave
Director @edwardberger  and production designer @suziedav recreated the Vatican’s sacred interiors at Cinecittà Studios, using minimal, ceremonial furniture to reinforce ritual, power and secrecy.

No.6 — Dune: Part Two
Directed by Denis Villeneuve, Production Designer @patricevermette and Set Decorator @shanevieau looked to Carlo Scarpa’s architecture for the Imperial world of Kaitain, balancing brutalist weight with delicate detail to give the setting a timeless authority.

Join us as we explore one of cinema’s favourite li Join us as we explore one of cinema’s favourite lighting families: Poul Henningsen’s PH lamps, where Danish precision meets quiet cinematic beauty.
Part of the @filmandfurniture and @hollowaysofludlow collaboration shining a light on unforgettable lighting and lamps in film — and how to bring these on-screen ideas into your own home.

Poul Henningsen’s mastery of glare-free light is unmatched, and his PH lamps for Louis Poulsen work their magic across genres.

✨ The PH Table Lamp
A fixture of elegant, focused interiors.
They appear wherever the narrative requires clarity, focus or understated elegance: in M’s office in Quantum of Solace, in ministerial interiors in Borgen, across the glossy sets of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, and in Devon and Ricken’s mid-century haven in Severance. Its opaline glass diffusers create a gentle, even pool of light — ideal for reading, working or grounding a room with sophisticated calm.

✨ The PH Pendant Light
Refined, sculptural and quietly expressive.
A pastel PH5 adds charm and warmth to the Browns’ kitchen in Paddington, while a bold red version becomes a dramatic punctuation mark in the monochrome Rawlings kitchen in Widows. Designed to direct light downwards without harshness, it’s a dream above dining tables and kitchen islands.

Some lights don’t just illuminate a room — they an Some lights don’t just illuminate a room — they animate it.
As part of our Film and Furniture x @hollowaysofludlow collaboration, we’re exploring the lamps that bring cinematic magic into our homes, and few do this as gracefully as the Moooi Perch Tree Pendant Light.

Designed by Umut Yamac, the Perch Tree turns light into movement. Each bird-like form — folded with quiet origami precision — sits on a branching brass structure, gently swaying with the slightest touch or draft. Even unlit, it feels alive; when illuminated, it becomes a soft, sculptural constellation.

On screen, the Perch Tree makes a memorable appearance in Sirens, anchoring the grand entrance lobby of the Kell family’s cliffside mansion. Its presence sets the tone: elegant, enigmatic, and perched on the edge of reality. As characters move beneath it, the lamp adds a subtle kinetic charge — a whisper of motion that heightens the scene’s atmosphere.

At home, the Perch Tree shines in spaces that welcome theatre and scale: double-height entrance halls, stairwells, gallery-like landings or dining rooms with room to breathe. It’s a conversation starter, a centrepiece, and a quiet example of how lighting can be both poetic and architectural.

Lighting plays a starring role on screen: it sets Lighting plays a starring role on screen: it sets mood, defines character and guides the story. 

Lights and lamps are also just as important at home — shaping how we read, dine, work and unwind.

As part of our @filmandfurniture x @hollowaysofludlow collaboration, we’re spotlighting some of cinema’s most memorable lamps — including one of the true A-listers:

✨ The Arco Floor Lamp
A sculptural arc of steel and marble, the Arco has appeared everywhere from the taut political world of Conclave to the unsettling interiors of Apartment 7A, the suave glamour of Diamonds Are Forever, and Tony Stark’s high-tech home in Iron Man. Wherever it lands, it signals intention: a room shaped with purpose, sophistication and a touch of cinematic confidence.

At home, the Arco offers overhead lighting without the need for ceiling wiring — perfect above dining tables, reading chairs or conversational seating. It’s as functional as it is architectural, which is why filmmakers and designers return to it again and again.
