Furniture brand Christopher Guy is designing a special VIP room for Thursday’s 2014 BAFTA Britannia Awards, The Hollywood Reporter has learned exclusively.
The honorees at this years awards include Robert Downey Jr., Mark Ruffalo, Emma Watson, Mike Leigh, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Dame Judi Dench. The Honoree Room, which is being renamed the Christopher Guy Room of The Stars, will feature pieces from the Christopher Guy collection, including the Cosmopolitan headboard, which some customers have taken to calling “The Game of Thrones headboard,” thanks to its resemblance to a certain Iron Throne in the HBO series.

“The Cosmopolitan headboard has been nicknamed the Game of Thrones headboard by many of our customers, so I thought it fitting with it being a Hollywood event and the show being the biggest in the world at the moment to align the two,” Christopher Guy says. “As a centerpiece of my Room Of The Stars, I feel it will capture the guests’ and audience’s imaginations and show off the unique nature of The Britannia Awards”.
