London’s Retro Revival: Why Vintage Armchairs and Sofas Still Rule There’s something about vintage pieces that grabs me. When I was a kid my nan had this battered armchair. The arms were shiny from years of elbows, but it carried memories. When London was swinging, an armchair wasn’t just a seat. You’d hand classic armchair designs down sofas from parents to kids. It’s in the weight of the wood. I rescued a battered armchair from outside a shop in Peckham. The legs were wobbling, but I knew straight away it had something.

That chair still sits in my flat. Every borough in London has its own taste. Belgravia keeps it polished, with buttoned wingbacks. Camden loves the clash, with industrial armchairs. Every corner tells a different story. Modern flat-pack doesn’t hold a candle. Old-school sofas last decades. They’re not perfect, but neither are we. Truth be told, an old funky accent chair means more than new gloss. A sofa with accent chair should tell your story.

Next time you’re thinking of flat-pack, comfort accent chairs stop and think of the markets. Take home something with scars, and make it part of your story.
