❤️ RED: Rooms + Interiors in Film and TV, Part 2 ❤️ RED: Rooms + Interiors in Film and TV, Part 2

Sometimes red appears as a single piece of furniture. Sometimes it dominates the whole room.

Across these films, red works through walls, carpets, bathrooms, upholstery, rugs and whole architectural spaces. It can make an interior feel plush and decadent, playful, futuristic, theatrical or freak you out entirely.

In The Grand Budapest Hotel and Paddington, red is exuberant and enveloping. 

Glass Onion pushes it into full-blown luxury, with that huge de Sede-esque curved red sofa, red rug and red lamp all holding their own.

Scarface uses red to sharpen its gleaming white interiors, while The Big Lebowski and The Royal Tenenbaums show how red can bring warmth, pattern and personality into very different domestic spaces.

Then there are those unforgettable bathrooms. The Shining turns red and white into something graphic and spooky, while The Substance revisits the combination with its own clinical unease. 

In The Skin I Live In and Megalopolis, red upholstery becomes one of the most commanding elements in the room.

Red is rarely shy.

Which red room would you actually want to spend time in?

Today is World James Bond Day 🍸 On 5 October 1962 Today is World James Bond Day 🍸

On 5 October 1962, Dr. No premiered in London and James Bond arrived on the big screen. So we’re celebrating 007 in the Film and Furniture way: through the furniture, lighting and interiors of the Bond films.

Because alongside the Aston Martins, gadgets and dinner jackets, Bond has given us some seriously good furniture design:-

Robin Day’s Leo chair in You Only Live Twice, where Sean Connery’s Bond takes a seat in one of Britain’s great mid-century designs.

Then there’s Bodil Kjær’s magnificent office desk, which became something of a Bond regular, appearing in From Russia With Love, You Only Live Twice and On Her Majesty’s Secret Service.

Verner Panton’s sculptural Pantonova seating system furnished Karl Stromberg’s extraordinary Atlantis lair in The Spy Who Loved Me, while Joe Colombo’s futuristic Elda chair also found itself perfectly at home in the same film.

These pieces helped establish the sophisticated, modern and frequently fantastical visual language of Bond, particularly in the extraordinary sets created by production designer Ken Adam.

Swipe through some of our favourite pieces from the 007 universe, then head to FilmandFurniture.com to discover the stories behind them and find many of the designs for your own home.

Which piece of Bond furniture would you take home?

Happy World James Bond Day, from Film and Furniture. 🍸🎬🪑
🛋️ Sunday Sofas: Sofas in Film and TV No.10, The D 🛋️ Sunday Sofas: Sofas in Film and TV No.10, The Design Classics Edition, Part 1

Great sofas have long lives, and some collect an impressive number of screen credits along the way.

For Part 1 of our Design Classics Edition, we’re looking at pieces whose shapes, materials and design history have made them recurring stars of film and TV.

Le Corbusier, Charlotte Perriand and Pierre Jeanneret’s LC2 and LC3 turn up in some very different worlds: the severe modern interiors of Conclave, Maude Lebowski’s chaotic art studio in The Big Lebowski, John Gray’s office in 9½ Weeks and the hotel interiors of Judy.

Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona Day Bed has an equally impressive screen career, appearing in Bruce Wayne’s modernist home in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, as well as Companion and Amanda.

Then there’s a fabulous Paul Frankl-style rattan sofa in The Uninvited, perfectly at home in its layered Hollywood Hills interior.

And, naturally, we couldn’t talk design classics without Howard Keith. The striped Barbican takes a starring role aboard Elton John’s private jet in Rocketman, while the Diplomat appears in The Romantic Englishwoman.
We also act as an agent for the buying and selling of original Howard Keith sofas, so if you have one to sell, or you’re hunting for one, do get in touch.

❤️ RED: Furniture, Lighting + Objects in Film and ❤️ RED: Furniture, Lighting + Objects in Film and TV, Part 1

RED makes a piece of design work hard on screen. 

A red lamp can pull your eye across a room. A red chair becomes even more sculptural. A red sofa can turn an otherwise tight-lipped interior into something far more assertive. Even a typewriter or fruit bowl suddenly becomes part of the story.

Pedro AlmodĂłvar has long understood the power of red, from the Tolomeo desk lamp in Julieta to the vivid glass bowl in Parallel Mothers. 

In How Do You Know, red appears in Gaetano Pesce’s Serie Up 2000 chair (in stripes_ and Marc Sadler’s Twiggy floor lamp.

Then there are the design classics: Florence Knoll seating in Mad Men, Poul Henningsen’s PH pendant in Widows, Verner Panton’s Flowerpot pendant in Conversations with Friends, and the bright red Valentine typewriter designed by Ettore Sottsass and Perry King, glimpsed in A Clockwork Orange.

And perhaps the ultimate red seating moment: Olivier Mourgue’s Djinn chairs in 2001: A Space Odyssey, where their saturated colour and curved form stand out brilliantly against the film’s white futuristic interiors.

Which red piece would you happily take home? If it's by chance the Djinn chair from 2001 we sell originals here at Film and Furniture.

East of Eden: Zoe Kazan’s seven-part adaptation of East of Eden: Zoe Kazan’s seven-part adaptation of John Steinbeck’s novel spans generations, and the interiors have been designed to carry that history with them: dark timber, faded surfaces, stained glass, wicker, carved furniture and richly upholstered parlour pieces.

The Trask family homes were built from from scratch, including their Connecticut house and later Salinas Valley home. The level of detail went right down to fake bird droppings beneath the rafters and faded patches on walls where pictures from previous generations might once have hung. 
Kazan says there was “so much history” built into the spaces.

The series was filmed in New Zealand, whose surviving Victorian architecture helped stand in for turn-of-the-century America, alongside purpose-built sets and rural landscapes doubling for California’s Salinas Valley.

And, naturally, we’ve got our eye on the furniture: wicker porch chairs, simple wooden rockers, carved armchairs and some very handsome patterned upholstery.

Production Designer: Grant Major
Set Decorator: Amber Richards

East of Eden, starring Florence Pugh, Christopher Abbott and Mike Faist, is streaming now on Netflix, with all seven episodes available from 1 October.
đź‘€ 22.6 million views and counting (by 20 September đź‘€ 22.6 million views and counting (by 20 September). Have you spotted the outdoor kitchen and BBQ grill table in The Gentlemen Season 2?

One of the pleasures of the new season is seeing the series’ particular world of country-house grandeur, criminal enterprise and excellent design return to the screen.

One of our favourite pieces is the WildTable and larger WildKitchen, which appear beside the lake at Halstead Manor during the post-shooting-party gathering, filmed at Ashcombe House, Guy Ritchie’s Wiltshire home. We also get a particularly good look at the whole set-up in the Season 2 teaser trailer, which opens this carousel.

At the centre is the WildTable, a fire-cooking and dining table designed so the cooking happens right where everyone is sitting. Wood or charcoal burns beneath the central firebox, while a flue carries smoke upwards and away from diners.

Food can be cooked in the middle of the table while everyone remains gathered around it, and a wool “skilt” beneath helps retain warmth around the legs.

The WildTable comes in four sizes, seating four, six, eight or twelve people. Around it, the wider WildKitchen adds the retractable hardwood-and-canvas tent, seating and storage to create a complete year-round outdoor entertaining space.

It is easy to see why it works so well in The Gentlemen. The series repeatedly turns hospitality into part of the action, whether over dinner, wine, tea or a shooting-party gathering. Here, the cooking, entertaining, conversation and hefty negotiation all happen in the same place.

🔥 Explore the WildTable and WildKitchen via the links in @filmandfurniture bio.
