Is Panton’s Geometri design the most famous textile design in the world? It’s certainly one of the most recognisable – and if you shell out for a Verner Panton Geometri rug, your friends and neighbours will know you’ve spent some serious cash.

The design was created by Panton for the Hotel Astoria in Trondheim, where it orignally covered the floor, walls and ceilings. This example, made under license by Vitra and from hand-tufted wool, isn’t going to cover that kind of area at 225cm x  225cm, but it is going to add a wow factor to your living room.

The one drawback is the price – £3626.

According to the blurb on the David Linley website, the St Moritz chair gets its name from the "sweeping lines of the ski tracks on the curving slopes". And it almost certainly gets a hefty dose of inspiration from classic design from the late 50s/early 60s.

This occasional chair has concave arms and seat, with support from a grey steel frame. And it’s comfortable – thanks to 288 individual micro springs, which should also help to keep the shape. There’s also polished brass detailing on the end of the walnut arms and on the feet to protect hard floor surfaces.

Available to order online, prices start at £1750.
