Here’s a trend we didn’t see coming. Sparkly metal

Here’s a trend we didn’t see coming. Sparkly metallic blue walls.

In Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights, the drawing room of Thrushcross Grange is rendered in a deep, saturated blue. Crystalline textures catch and scatter the light, giving the walls a shifting, almost liquid quality.

Under candlelight the blue reads less sugary and more seductive. It feels polished, heightened, slightly unreal.

And suddenly, we’re looking at sparkly blue walls differently.

So we’ve curated an edit inspired by Thrushcross Grange for those tempted to bring a little shimmer home:

Pic 1: Blue & Silver Glitter Stripe Wallpaper
Pic 2: FunStick Black Blue Glitter Self Adhesive Wallpaper (Peel and Stick)
Pic 3: Self Adhesive Blue Glitter Wallpaper (Peel and Stick)
pic 4: Constellation Wallpaper (inspired by the celestial beauty of the Milky Way, this textured wallpaper captures the sense of sky meeting earth in a shimmering, dreamlike flow: Woods and Stars Wallpaper (the iconic woods design now ushers you into the most fairytale of worlds, a forest of silver birches and dainty star clusters)
Pic 5: The silver dining room in Thrushcross Grange

Shimmer need not mean sweet. In the right light, it can feel bold, atmospheric and quietly dramatic.

A Home That Remembers: The Design of Sentimental V

A Home That Remembers: The Design of Sentimental Value

It is often said that a house can become “a character” in a film. In Sentimental Value, that has never been truer.

Nominated for 9 Academy Awards and 8 BAFTAs, Joachim Trier’s (@nobledanceroslo) Norwegian drama follows two sisters returning to their childhood home after their mother’s death. But beneath the performances lies something even more compelling.

This is a film about a house — and the furniture that maps its history.

The narrative moves through generations. And with each era, the interiors shift.

By the 1990s, production designer Jørgen Stangebye Larsen (@mrlastminute) and set decorator Catrine Gormsen (@catrinegormsen) mix democratic IKEA with Scandinavian modern classics.

An Arco floor lamp arcs over a Klippan sofa with a vintage leather patchwork cover.
A Pernilla chair by Bruno Mathsson becomes Gustav’s armchair — nostalgic, slightly worn, inherited in spirit.
A Bang & Olufsen television rests casually on a wheeled stand.

Nothing feels styled. Everything feels lived in.

Later, we glimpse a Swedese Lamino Easy Chair. In the mother’s former therapy office, an Alvar Aalto chair from Artek anchors the room. In the dining room, Series 7 chairs by Arne Jacobsen sit beside a Piet Hein table and a Cesca chair.

Furniture here is biography.

In partnership with @hollowaysofludlow, we explore how these enduring Scandinavian pieces — from the Lamino Easy Chair to the Series 7 — continue to shape homes today.

Tonight we’re watching the BAFTAs with one eye on

Tonight we’re watching the BAFTAs with one eye on the red carpet… and the other firmly on the design of the film sets of the nominees 👀🎬

Leading the BAFTA nominations this year is One Battle After Another with 14 nods,
closely followed by Sinners on 13.
Not far behind are Hamnet and Marty Supreme, each with 11
Frankenstein and Sentimental Value have secured 8 nominations apiece,
while Bugonia and I Swear follow with 5.
F1, Pillion, and The Ballad of Wallis Island round things off with 3 each.

It’s a strong year across the board, from intimate, emotionally layered interiors to large-scale cinematic worlds.

In Ponies, espionage isn’t confined to back rooms

In Ponies, espionage isn’t confined to back rooms and coded exchanges. It plays out in lobbies, restaurants and diplomatic residences too (and a retro hotel bathroom to die for - see pic 8).

Production designer @skwhaaat rebuilt 1977 Moscow largely in Budapest, researching beyond Cold War clichés to create interiors that feel politically charged rather than predictably austere.

Start with the Embassy apartment and CIA spaces. They're restrained, ordered. and bureaucratic.
Furniture that feels issued rather than chosen.
Clean lines, controlled palettes.

Then the Intourist Hotel.
Historically created to host foreign visitors - it becomes a stage-managed version of Soviet modernity. We see polished surfaces. Streamlined forms. A carefully calibrated international style. Hospitality with an agenda!

And the Russian restaurant is layered, patterned, textured.
Wallpaper and ornament wrapping negotiations in atmosphere.

Public interiors in Ponies perform power and they’re rich with period detail, from vintage lighting to sourced wallpapers that ground the drama in authentic 1970s design language.

Ponies is streaming now on @peacock in the US, and will be available on additional platforms, including Prime Video, soon.

The moment a film reference becomes a real client

The moment a film reference becomes a real client brief is when panic and possibility collide.

Interior designer Jennelle of Specialized Interior Design was creating a full homage to Passengers — including its playful parody of the carpet from The Shining in alternative colourways.

So she searched for the carpet from The Shining.

Film and Furniture came up.

From there, the project unfolded.

“I found the Passengers article… that’s how all of this started trickling because of your website. That’s where I found where the wallpaper came from… I was like, ‘Oh — I can make all this happen.’ Literally… the best thing ever.”

She went on to commission the officially licensed Hicks Hexagon carpet from us — in a customised colourway to echo the Passengers reinterpretation.

This is exactly why Film and Furniture exists: to turn cinematic references — even layered homages within films — into real-world specification, with provenance and sourcing you can confidently present to a client.

Interior designers working with film-led schemes: think of us as your research partner and credibility layer.

In the spy thriller Ponies, set in 1977 Moscow, two American embassy secretaries: Bea (Emilia Clarke) and Twila (Haley Lu Richardson), find themselves pulled into Cold War espionage.

But the real intrigue in Ponies isn’t only in the intelligence briefings. It’s in the apartments.

Production designer Sara K White (@skwhaaat) was determined to dismantle the Western myth of Soviet greyness. Her research into 1970s Moscow revealed colour, ornament and richly layered domestic life, and she leaned into it.

Andrei’s apartment is dense with patterned wallpaper and textured surfaces — lived-in, personal, culturally rooted. Not austere. Not bleak. But complex.

Sasha’s space feels more controlled, almost self-conscious. Fewer personal traces. Surfaces that suggest awareness — as if the room itself understands surveillance.

Then there’s Bea. Her apartment carries refinement: mid-century pieces, considered lighting, a quiet composure. It reflects emotional structure — someone who values order in a destabilising world.

Twila’s, by contrast, feels more provisional. Practical. Less curated. A woman not yet fully anchored.

And Ray and Cheryl? Pure 1970s social ambition. Mirrored surfaces, gold, theatrical glamour. Their apartment performs success — it wants to be seen. Confidence edged with calculation.

These sets are psychological maps.
And they’re teeming with retro design inspiration.
