We had an old floral sofa that was patched and sagging. The arms were shiny from years of elbows, but it carried memories. When London was swinging, a sofa wasn’t just a sofa. Families saved for months to buy one piece. It’s in the weight of the wood. I once pulled a Chesterfield out of a warehouse in Hackney.

The legs were wobbling, but as soon as I sat down it felt right. It’s become part of my story. Furniture in London shifts with the postcode. Belgravia keeps it polished, with buttoned wingbacks. Dalston keeps it cheeky, with industrial armchairs. The contrast keeps it alive. The catalogue stuff has no soul. Retro pieces age with dignity. They’re not perfect, but neither are we. At the end of the day, I’ll pick a vintage sofa over new every time.

An armchair should hug you back. Before you grab a soulless bargain, go dig through a car boot. Take home something with scars, and explore sofasdirect.com let it grow with you.
