Inspiration (and aspiration) is the #1 way most of our clients brainstorm ideas for their interiors with the IWI team. Fabulous hotels, exotic travel locations, posts from Instagram, and pages torn out of shelter magazines - these are all inspirational sources. But we’d like to introduce you to another inspirational source: Film and Furniture is a unique website that explores the intersection of cinema and interior design, showcasing how the settings in films contribute to storytelling and mood. We just saw Wicked the movie, and were reminded of many design influences, from Carlo Bugatti to Louis Sullivan, and we know many of our clients love the interiors from movies and television shows.
The Film and Furniture platform features a curated collection of furniture pieces, décor, and design elements that have been prominent in various films, allowing homeowners to recreate iconic looks in their own spaces. With in-depth articles, product recommendations, and insightful commentary on film aesthetics, Film and Furniture appeals to both cinephiles and design aficionados. The site serves as a resource for those interested in how the details of film production can influence real-world interior styling. Give the website a try, and see if you’d like to bring something iconic from the small or large screen into your home!
