The link between cinema and design is strong, and i4Mariani is no stranger to being in the limelight. The selection of furniture for set design isn't just randomly selected but ultimately serves a larger purpose. Often furniture used in a set can evoke a certain time period, create an atmosphere, or even how the status and taste of a character.
Dating all the way back to the 80s, i4Mariani's innovative office furniture has been featured in dozens of iconic films, television shows, and a handful of music videos, bringing the stunning world of modern design on set. Below are some of i4Mariani's more iconic appearances on the big screen:
Wall Street

The Big armchair establishes the importance of the proper working environment, as well as conference rooms. The chair is structured with beechwood multi-ply panels, while the seat and arm cushions are covered by bonded plush, giving exceptional comfort. The armchair also features a tilt mechanism and height-adjustable lever, allowing it to change and adapt to fit the user's needs.
The big armchair was also featured in other prominent movies, such as The Cold Room, Beverly Hills Cops, and Weekend at Bernie's.
The Devil's Advocate
Elite was featured in The Devil's Advocate, which premiered in 1997
Made of honeycomb fiberboard with a solid beechwood frame, the sleek Elite Desk has black melamine-coated panels and can be completely covered by saddle leather with an inlay of black varnished glass or of black laminate on the underside. The Elite chair accents the desk perfectly with its tubular steel black varnish and elegant fabric or leather upholstery.
Elite was also featured in Die Hard and the popular television series, Friends.
