This might look like an example of sixties seating, but this cow print swivel chair is actually a modern piece, but very much in the style of a vintage chair.

As the name suggests quirky chair does indeed swivel, thanks to the rotating chrome base. The cow print is something you’ll either love or hate. But wait – you don’t need to have it. Other covers are indeed available – including a particularly kitsch leopard print and a more toned-down plain red.

As it’s not a design classic, the price comes down considerably. You can pick this up for £232.

Many homes still go for the old-fashioned net curtain to keep nosey passers-by from staring in their homes. But sadly, net curtains aren’t cool and they get easily dirty. So here’s a contemporary alternative – Emma Jeffs adhesive window films.

They still do the same job – allowing light in, but keeping your privacy from the outside world. Just buy the adhesive, stick it on your window and you’re done. The film comes packaged in a roll of 100 x 120 cm and there’s some great and indeed retro designs to choose from.

You can buy online, prices are around £47 per roll.
