Submitter here.
Over the last number of months me and a friend have built a website (www.seenonset.com) for finding and buying furniture and decor that's found on the set of movies and TV shows. I have a technical background and he has an interiors background.
The website isn't particularly interesting from a technical view point - it's a standard ASP.NET MVC web application hosted on Azure. But on the business side it's a bit more interesting; we're trying to provide a new approach to buying household items that ties in with peoples connection with media. We think it's an especially good time for something like this since online sales for furniture is growing and there is a real lack of brand awareness when it comes to furniture which we want to change.
Anyways, I know the furniture and interiors market isn't a typical interest of HN but I was hoping for the usual critiquing in terms of the business model (we rely on affiliate sales for the moment) and website design, along with any other thoughts you'd care to share. At this point I might just note that the site isn't mobile optimized yet.
Thanks for having a look.
