🎬 From London’s red carpets to Cheltenham’s cinema 🎬 From London’s red carpets to Cheltenham’s cinema seats: look what’s coming…

We've spent the past week or two at the BFI London Film Festival, watching films, hearing from their makers and gathering stories to share. From Sofia Coppola in conversation to LAIKA’s extraordinary Wildwood, there’s been plenty to feed our love of cinema and design.

With an ambitious watch list and a few travel and scheduling headaches, we couldn’t see everything. The welcome discovery? Many of those same films are coming to Cheltenham, where F&F HQ is now located, just twelve days after London’s festival closes.

Andrew Scott in Elsinore, Danny Boyle’s Ink, Helen Mirren as Patricia Highsmith in A Talent for Murder…@filmchelt's volunteer team has put together a programme worth making room in the diary for.

Naturally, our picks include some tempting interiors and visual worlds, from Fleet Street offices to the Persian carpets of Gabbeh.

Read Paula’s festival highlights and discover what’s coming to Cheltenham on Film and Furniture. Link in @filmandfurniture bio.

🛋️Sunday Sofas: Sofas in Film and TV No.11 - The S 🛋️Sunday Sofas: Sofas in Film and TV No.11 - The Statement Edition

For this edition of Sunday Sofas, we’re looking at the ones that refuse to fade into the background. Sculptural, flamboyant, or theatrical, these are sofas that help define the whole room.

In Jacques Tati’s Mon Oncle, Mrs Arpel’s extraordinary green tubular sofa is part of the film’s wonderfully satirical vision of modern living, designed to look striking while making its inhabitants distinctly uncomfortable. Domeau & Pérès later recreated the sofa, along with other pieces from the film.

At the opposite end of the spectrum is the ornate silver settee in The Neon Demon, where furniture becomes part of the film’s highly stylised, fashion-editorial world. 

In Léon: The Professional, Mathilda sprawls across a huge carved, deep-green velvet sofa surrounded by snacks and clutter. It's slightly battered and completely in tune with the film’s odd domestic world.

Then there is The Devil Wears Prada 2, which gives us Misha Kahn’s Bois Brûlé sofa appears in the Milan hotel scenes, while the Kévin sofa anchors Lily’s New York loft. Both are substantial enough to behave like sculptures. 

Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange is hardly short of memorable furniture, but the dog-tooth teal sofa in Alex’s parents’ aggressively patterned flat is a particularly good example.

And in Wicked: For Good, Glinda’s sweeping curved sofa follows the architecture of her extraordinary Art Deco-inspired apartment, part of Nathan Crowley and Lee Sandales’ richly layered production design.

How far would you take your love of Stanley Kubric How far would you take your love of Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining? A runner down the hallway? A rug beneath the record player? An entire home cinema?

Our Film and Furniture customers have some mighty fine answers.

We’ve been taking a snoop around their interiors, where Hicks Hexagon, Room 237 and Gold Room designs bring a cult classic horror movie into everyday life.

⚖️ Power has a palette in Sky’s new legal drama WA ⚖️ Power has a palette in Sky’s new legal drama WAR.

The eight-part series, created by George Kay of Lupin and Hijack, follows two rival London law firms battling over the divorce of British tech entrepreneur Morgan Henderson, played by Dominic West, and international film star Carla Duval, played by Sienna Miller.

The interiors set up a strong visual divide between the worlds competing for control: dark timber, rich brown tones, mustard upholstery and brass detailing in the more traditional spaces, contrasted with glass walls, pale surfaces and cool blue corporate precision.

we’ve already spotted a couple of favourites.

There’s a Poul Henningsen PH table lamp for Louis Poulsen, its layered shades adding a warm pool of orange light to one of the darker office interiors. 
Henningsen’s famous three-shade system was developed to produce soft, glare-free illumination, which makes it especially effective here against all that polished wood and corporate seriousness.

Even better, there’s a Howard Keith Diplomat sofa, one of our long-standing favourites at Film and Furniture. Its low, generous form and unmistakably 1960s/70s glamour look very much at home in this world of money, power and expensive legal manoeuvring. Film and Furniture also acts as an agent for the buying and selling of original Howard Keith pieces, including the Diplomat.

The strongest design moment may be the mustard sofa sitting on that extraordinary geometric circular floor, seen from directly above. It turns a legal consultation into something almost graphic and stage-like.

🛋️ 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 2

Some design classics are all chrome, structure and straight lines. Part 2 gets considerably squishier.

Here are three sofas that have earned their place in the design canon through very different approaches to the art of lounging.

The wonderfully slouchy Mags Soft by HAY appears in Ready Player One, where a huge cognac leather modular version sits comfortably amongst the film’s distinctly less comfortable vision of 2045.

Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec’s curvaceous Ploum sofa for Ligne Roset was designed around the idea of total postural comfort. A pair appear in The Drama when Charlie visits his friend Rachel’s workplace, bringing a very recognisable piece of contemporary design into the mix.

And then there’s Michel Ducaroy’s Togo, designed for Ligne Roset in 1973 and still looking gloriously relaxed more than half a century later. In White Lines, its low, crumpled form and burnt-orange upholstery are entirely at home in Boxer’s eclectic Ibiza apartment.

Three very different approaches to comfort. Three sofas with serious staying power.
