Maison du Monde have a small range of furniture, inspired by 1970s designs. Comprises of three item each in a choice of black or white, the range is simply called “Seventies”.

Pictured here is the coffee table in black, and the collection is completed by a three drawer cabinet and a TV unit, all featuring the same curved edges. Prices start from 139 Euros (approximately £110) for the TV unit up to 199 Euros (around £160) for the coffee table.

View the complete range of Seventies furniture at the Maison du Monde website.

We’ve already featured a couple of items from Orla Kiely’s furniture range for Heal’s, and whilst the furniture pieces are truly beautiful, they certainly come under the “big purchase” category. Fortunately, the furniture collection has now been joined by the Orla Kiely for Heal’s Storage Range, which contains items that we can all afford to buy.

Consisting of magazine boxes, CD boxes, box files and various sized storage boxes, the collection features two of Kiely’s prints. The Tulip print is a bold retro pattern in olive colours whereas the Rowan Tree is a more understated, resembling flock wallpaper in purple shades.

Prices range from £22 to £40. Visit the Heal’s website to view the whole collection.
