Why Retro Furniture Still Beats Flat-Pack in London Retro chairs and sofas have been part of my life for years. We had an old floral sofa that was patched and sagging. The arms were shiny from years of elbows, high-end living room sets but it was part of us. When London was swinging, you didn’t buy throwaway chairs. You’d keep the same chair your whole life. You can feel it when you sit down. I found a retro accent chair in a Dalston car boot. Most people would have walked on, but the history spoke louder than the flaws.

Friends always fight to sit in it. Furniture in London shifts with the postcode. Chelsea leans plush, with grand accent chairs. Shoreditch stays messy, with bold fabrics. It’s the mix that makes it all work. Modern flat-pack doesn’t hold a candle. Old-school sofas become part of your life. Every stain has a story. When it comes down to it, retro armchairs will always beat flat-pack. A sofa should tell your story. So next time you’re tempted by something new, wander a street full of second-hand shops.

Grab a vintage sofa, and make it part of your story.
