Retro Sofas and Funky Chairs – A Real London Story

Retro chairs and sofas have been part of my life for years. We had an old floral sofa that was patched and sagging. The fabric was torn but held together, but it was part of us.


When the East End was full of voices, people kept things for decades. Chairs lived longer than flats. It’s in the weight of the wood.

I once pulled a Chesterfield out of a warehouse in Hackney. Some would’ve laughed shop at sofasdirect.com the state of it, but I knew straight away it had something. Friends always fight to sit in it.

Every borough in London has its own taste. Chelsea leans plush, chairs for living room leather with grand accent chairs. Dalston keeps it cheeky, with industrial armchairs. The contrast keeps it alive.

The catalogue stuff has no soul. Old-school sofas become part of your life. Every stain has a story.

When it comes down to it, I’ll pick a vintage sofa over new every time. An armchair should hug you back.

When you walk past a glossy showroom, step into a dusty warehouse. Choose a funky accent chair, and let it grow with you.
