Furniture Meets Film: Furb's Quest to Elevate Everyday Seating

What do all movies have in common? Let's take a guess, shall we?

Let’s dissect every hint. Sometimes, it's round; sometimes, it's square. You can find it in every household or even at the workplace. Need another clue? It's where you sit.

That's right—chairs!

In every movie, you'll discover various iconic chairs in Hollywood films that remain to this day. Props are essential in films because actors often interact with them. These movie prop chairs have played intriguing roles, sometimes becoming iconic symbols of the movies themselves.

In the world of furniture, Furb and movies collide because they share one common element: chairs. In a journey to transform the way, we interact with one of the most fundamental elements of our daily lives. Furb aims to elevate chairs into pieces of functional art that seamlessly blend into our modern styles. 

Now, let's delve into the world of iconic famous chairs in movies, film, and television, where chairs have played significant roles, and discover how Furb envisions this type of furniture. The following film and TV furniture shows are famous chairs in TV shows and movies:

Frasier (1993) 

The chairs in the iconic TV scenes of the American sitcom "Frasier," a chair from the beloved show's iconic chair, take center stage, remaining recognizable even today. Whether seen in films or the workplace, it continues to be widely used. This chair is known as the Lounge Chair, and its stunning design has become synonymous with minimalist contemporary style.

With Furb, they have introduced their own Lounge Chair inspired by the Eames Lounge Chair featured in "Frasier." Furb knows that these products are designed with comfort and ample support in mind, providing an excellent place to relax and unwind which customers will love when it’s bought. 

Matrix (1999)

Are we going to forget chairs in famous film scenes, like the iconic high back chair featured in the sci-fi movie "The Matrix"? The iconic furniture in the film, embodied by Laurence Fishburne, became a symbol of the film's futuristic world, and many of us wished to have it in our own homes.

Furb offers its version of the High Back Chair, known as the Wingback chair. Besides its captivating appearance, this chair provides excellent support for both the upper and lower back. Be sure to explore this option, as you'll appreciate its comfort and style, just as you would have when it was first showcased in ‘The Matrix’.

Down with Love (2003)

In the romantic comedy "Down with Love", the standout furniture piece is the Womb Chair. This iconic furniture in the film is named the "Womb Chair" because its design mimics the shape of a womb. The organic and cocoon-like form of the Womb Chair offers a soothing and comforting place.

Furb also offers its version of the Womb Chair, featuring its exceptional comfort and enveloping design. Furb's Womb Chair is designed to make users feel secure and relaxed, just like the original. Typically, the Womb Chair features a molded fiberglass shell, is upholstered in fabric or leather, and often comes with a matching ottoman.

The Holiday (2006)

In the 2006 star-studded film ‘The Holiday’, featuring Cameron Diaz as an office worker, chairs that stole the scene because of their eye-catching piece of furniture take center stage—the office chair. This ergonomic chair is designed to conform to the human body, providing a high level of seating comfort.

Furb takes pride in their home office chairs, and, of course, they've designed their line of office chairs. These chairs not only prioritize comfort but, with their efficient and top-notch design, they also serve as a visual delight. Furb's ergonomic office chair designs contribute to comfort, and productivity, and capture attention, making them a great addition to any workspace.

The Vow (2012)

A chair in famous scenes in Rachel McAdams' retro-chic apartment, you can spot simple yet stylish furniture pieces like the Navy Chair, which was featured in the movie "The Vow." Interestingly, in real life, this iconic aluminum chair was originally designed for the US Navy, but it has found its way into cafes, bistros, fast-food establishments, and even apartments.

Furb doesn't miss opportunities like this, and they offer their version of the aluminum chair. This furniture is versatile and is now used in various settings, ranging from restaurants, fast-food joints, cafes, and bistros, to film set chairs, and sometimes even your own apartment. The chair is appreciated not only for its simplicity but also for its strength and lightweight furniture.

Chairs hold a significant influence not just in our daily lives but also within the realm of cinema. Numerous films, beyond those we mentioned, feature specific chairs that have pivotal roles and become enduring symbols of their respective stories. At Furb, as a furniture company, recognizes the significance of these iconic pieces.

Indeed, Furb’s mission is to transform chairs into functional works of art that enhance our lifestyles. Their designs prioritize not only comfort but also seamlessly blend style and captivation into our homes, workplaces, and leisure spaces. In doing so, Furb slowly and effectively bridges the gap between furniture and the world of cinema and television, gradually enhancing our living environments.
