A modern piece of design with a distinctly 60s feel – the Swing Chair.

It’s available from Onedeko with a variety of fabric options, but we like this Panton-esque covering the most. The chair itself has a chrome base and a curved shape for comfort, with a couple of arm rests thrown in for good measure.

You can order one online, priced at £539.

When it comes to quirky design, Atypyk is the name to watch right now – and the Moon Carpet is another great example.

Yes, every morning you can re-live the 1960s, bouncing around this crater-covered carpet just like Neil Armstrong. The white rug is made from 100 per cent wool and is 210cm wide.

No price as yet – contact the company to register your interest.

I really like Dwell – so many of their items hint at high-end design, without actually commanding the asking price. And typical is this Dwell pleated spiked pendant light.

Like the Artichoke lamp and very much like the Norm 69 pendant light, this particular pendant has the same segment-style design, all made from polypropylene and with a total diameter of 40cm.

It’s also ready-made (unlike the Norm 69) and retails for a very reasonable £24.95.

Come into some money recently? Looking for a luxurious chair? The Tom Dixon Wingback chair could be the one for you.

Launched at the 2007 Milan Furniture Fair, the Wingback chair is a glamorous version of the chairs found in traditional gentelmen’s clubs. It has a solid wooden frame and solid turned legs, as well as a cover in mohair velvet – with a choice of 15 colours.

Ideal for that afternoon nap, it retails for a rather pricey £3,600.
