Retro Sofas and Funky Chairs – A Real London Story I can’t walk past a retro armchair without stopping for a look. My first memory of proper furniture is my grandad’s wingback chair. It sagged in the middle and smelled faintly of tea, but it felt alive. During the heyday of Soho, a sofa wasn’t just a sofa. You’d hand down sofas from parents to kids. You can feel it when you sit down. I dragged a velvet armchair home from Camden.

It weren’t pretty at first glance, quirky chairs but you can’t fake that kind of comfort. That chair still sits in my flat. Furniture in London shifts with the postcode. Belgravia keeps it polished, unique settee with velvet luxury armchairs. Shoreditch stays messy, with bold fabrics. The clash gives it character. Mass-produced pieces fade in months. Old-school sofas age with dignity. They carry scratches like tattoos. When it comes down to it, an old funky accent chair means more than new gloss.

Your seat should outlast the years. When you walk past a glossy showroom, wander a street full of second-hand shops. Pick up a retro armchair, and see how it shapes your nights.
