Take a stroll in Spitalfields and you’ll stumble on armchairs stacked outside shops. They’ve got stains and creaks, but that’s their story > 자유게시판

London’s Retro Revival: Why Vintage Armchairs and retro style settees Sofas Still Rule I’ve always had a soft spot for old furniture. My first memory of proper furniture is my grandad’s wingback chair. It was worn, patched, and squeaky, but it carried memories. When London was swinging, a sofa wasn’t just a sofa. You’d hand down sofas from parents to kids. It’s in the sag of the springs. I rescued a battered armchair from outside a shop in Peckham. Some would’ve laughed at the state of it, but as soon as I sat down it felt right.

It’s become part of my story. Furniture in London shifts with the postcode. Kensington loves velvet, with plush seating. Camden loves the clash, unusual armchairs with bold fabrics. The contrast keeps it alive. New furniture looks dead next to vintage. Accent chairs from another era last decades. Every creak is a memory. At the end of the day, retro armchairs will always beat flat-pack. A chair should hold your nights. So next time you’re tempted by something new, stop and think of the markets.

Grab a vintage sofa, and let it grow with you.
