A 1960s classic, the Piet Hein Sinus Lamp 550 for Holmegaard is perfect for a space age look in your living room.

Designed in 1967 by Piet Hein, the Sinus Lamp 550 was based on a UFO, with the original idea of creating it in mass market plastic. However, Hein wasn’t happy with the prototypes, so it was re-worked in glass – and that version is still in production today.

You can buy a smaller version (330mm), but the larger 550mm version (hence the name) is the one to have, although it does sell for a hefty £1,253.

Would you trust a cardboard table to keep upright for your dinner party? You’ll have to with the Frank Gehry Dining Table.

Designed in 1972 as part of the Easy Edges collection, it’s not your everyday bit of cardboard – this is robust corrugated cardboard with hardboard edges and a glass top with a choice of natural or white painted finish. It’s also been constructed to exacting standards, so you can be sure it’s good for many years to come.

Just as well really – with a price of £1,627.
