Leonhard Pfeifer Sideboard

Housesideboard_m

The Heal’s House range includes this Sideboard designed exclusively for the store by Leonhard Pfeifer.

It has been designed to work well in smaller rooms, measuring 113cm wide x by 45cm deep. Heal’s describe it as being perfect for modern living, but being a walnut sideboard, it inevitably has a certain mid-century look to it.

The sideboard costs £495 from Heal’s.

Micke desk from Ikea

Micke desk

Like a stripped back modernist style for your office? Well, for the look without the price tag, you might like the Micke desk from Ikea.

While it's certainly not the polished wood and gleaming aluminium you'd normally associate with the style (this one is made from a combination of fibreboard and plastic), it's certainly got the clean Bauhaus lines. It's also got the modern advantage of having cable outlets and compartments built into the design. And, if you need more storage, there are more units that can be purchased to be added on. 

It's one of those budget designs that Ikea is so famous for, costing just £65. 

Available in-store only, you can see it online here.
