연락처 : QK 이메일 : alphonso_lesage@hotmail.com First year in London was chaos. The walls were bare, but we made it ours. Forget glossy showrooms, so we hunted retro. We carried a wingback through Dalston. It felt like Shoreditch, but that’s what made it home. Funky retro seating has character, and we care more about story than gloss. I’ve balanced takeaway boxes on a mismatched chair, and the sofa was another character in the story. Shoreditch is perfect for this life, sofasdirect.com and shops in the area thrive on it.

My flatmate dragged me into Smithers, and the place was full of funky retro chairs. We couldn’t afford much, but it’s the pride of the living room. Ask around and you’ll hear it. it’s where life happens. Vintage pieces survive it. Brand-new looks boring, but retro lasts. every stain means another night. When you’re moving out, the cracked window gets forgotten, but that funky accent chair is legend.

When you think furniture, skip the flat-pack rubbish. Take home something with scars, and make it part of your story.
