Furniture has been my bread and butter since the fifties. In the heart of London, people don’t buy just to sit. Designers with clients in tow, and they all want a piece that speaks. A best retro armchairs armchair, never fails to speak up. A wingback ended up in a Belgravia study, and it carried his family through generations. This is why old beats new. They fall for fashion too quickly, but eventually they realise. Cheap wood snaps, whereas vintage lasts. Every part of London tells a different story.

Hampstead seeks calm, with buttoned wingbacks. Dalston experimental, with colourful sofas. That’s London. End of the day, quirky sofas an armchair becomes memory. Modern factory pieces can’t compete. I still touch the arms of the chairs, and the right piece never lies. Classic pieces endure. When a showroom tempts you, think again. Find yourself a vintage sofa, and see how it shapes your home.
