Architecture and interior design thread

I'll just say take some extra cash if you go to the warehouse!

Hah, noted!

Also worth considering: https://www.wantdontwant.com/home/.

I’ve had loads of new and used off them. Usually keen pricing too.

We got a Montis sofa from Viaduct.

Also have stuff from Bo Concept (weird name, nice stuff)

Cheers! BoConcept Modena is nice, and not too pricey.

Speaking of shite names, my girlfriend found a company called &tradition and one of theirs is top of the list at the moment.

&tradition stuff is really nice - one of my favourites

Those legs though, like you’re waiting in the terminal for your BOAC flight to Rhodesia.

Hah they're my favourite bit! Everything else is the run of the mill oak cone or spindly brushed steel.

Legs aside, definitely get a sofa with actual cushions. Our monobloc hay mags is basically unfluffable. Still comfy, but my butt groove ruins the aesthetic.

Need a smallish modern/ mic-century coffee table but haven't found much inspiring online, any suggestions for shops / manufacturers?

I was in a similar place, you’ve prob looked already but untothislast do a great one with multi size and colour options as well as a shelf underneath which was oddly hard to find.

Ah interesting

I seem to lean towards solid wood rather than ply or veneer - do I need to rethink that?

What sort of size/shape? (Also furniture thread is worth an ask too)

Smallish. Was thinking something curved rather than an oblong as the room is a bit busy already

(excuse general detritus / kids stuff)

Jeez What do I have to do to ensure my living room only contains one tasteful wooden toy bus ?

Also - Ercol pebbles or their round one might work in that (lovely ) space ?

Oh yeah, 100%. The one I have would suit your space perfectly, it’s pretty similar…

Jeez What do I have to do to ensure my living room only contains one tasteful wooden toy bus ?

Literally ban them (and the cats) from entry unless supervised

I don't recommend this TBH, it's now a massive albatros around my neck (sink loads of energy in time making a nice room that nobody can realistically enjoy)

Ercol pebbles or their round one might work in that (lovely ) space ?

Yeah spotted this. On the long list.

Cluttered but don’t care… we went for linoleum top for easy care too.

Noguchi 😉

But actually probably a little big - I have a Menu NoNo coffee table going for sale at a good price 😃

Ercol 308 or 354 (pebbles) or maybe Vitsoe 621 table. Or as mentioned baller Walnut Noguchi.

Vitsoe 621 table

Ohhhh didn't consider that. mmm

Any recommendations for cheap-ish picture framer's in NW london - got a load of stuff that needs framing - nothing huge but mostly won't fit in off the shelf frames and the quality of those seems to have taken a dive anyhow...

Looking for something like a Wastberg w181 linier s pendant lamp but maybe not quite as expensive. Anyone have some alternative options?
