The multi-Oscar nominated movie Wicked brings to life a magical world where both macro and micro design elements work in harmony to immerse the audience in the origin story of Elphaba (The Wicked Witch, played by Cynthia Erivo) and Galinda/Glinda (Ariana Grande).

In this exclusive video podcast interview with Film and Furniture’s Paula Benson and the film's production designer Nathan Crowley, we explore the design process and reveal the intricate details of the Wicked film sets that make the movie visually spectacular.

The film’s world-building draws on history, fantasy, and nostalgia, crafting a space that feels both familiar and completely new.

🏆 Congratulations to Conclave on 8 Oscar nomina

🏆 Congratulations to Conclave on 8 Oscar nominations yesterday including our fave category - Best Production Design: Suzie Davies.

The design philosophy behind Conclave thrives on contrast, blending traditional architecture with bold modern influences. “We incorporated 20th-century Italian fascist architecture—the sharp edges, the graphic lines—into the spaces where we see the Cardinals navigating,” Suzie told us. “It’s a juxtaposition of light and dark, male and female, ancient and modern, that really drives the tension in the film.”

A striking example of this contrast is the carefully chosen furniture throughout the sets, which plays a significant role in grounding the film’s modern yet historical atmosphere.

Classic design pieces, such as the iconic modernist armchairs and sofas by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret and Charlotte Perriand, as well as the legendary Arco floor lamp by Achille and Pier Castiglioni, were selected by Suzie and set decorator Cynthia Sleiter. These pieces serve as key elements that add modernity and texture to the otherwise austere spaces. “We wanted to anchor the film in a space where the Cardinals, while deeply entrenched in tradition, are also part of a modern world,” Suzie says.

Conclave: Designing Power & Secrecy 🎬 Video Pod

Conclave: Designing Power & Secrecy 🎬 Video Podcast Ep. 1

A key challenge of Conclave was recreating the Sistine Chapel—something that not only couldn’t be filmed in, but required a unique approach to its very design. “We couldn’t film in the Vatican, of course,” production designer Suzie Davies explains. “But we were lucky enough to work with some brilliant craftspeople at at Cinecittà Studios in Rome to bring it to life.”

In conversation with Suzie, we explore the thought process, creativity, and intricate design details that shaped the world of Conclave.
