John Lewis retro-styled Aalto armchair and sofa

Aalto1

Not sure if there's much similarity to the work of the man it's named after, but we like the retro styling of the John Lewis Aalto armchair and sofa.

Pictured above is the oversized armchair, with light oak legs, a high back granite-coloured 'chunky' fabric upholstery and the bonus of a scatter cushion.

If you want something bigger, check out the sofa over the page, which is in much the same style. Available for order now, prices start at £999.

Modern Design Deck print by Jen Renninger

Moderndesigndeck1

Want a quick visual primer on key design icons? Well then you may be interested in this print of Jen Renninger's Modern Design Deck. The deck allocated a celebrated designer and a depiction of one of their famous works to each letter of the alphabet. This print shows 30 of her original illustrations for the deck (yes, some of the letters have more than one designer attached to them) going from A for Aalto to Z for Zeisel. 

This print costs $49. A selection of the designs made for individual letters, including P for Panton and E for Eames, are also available at $25 each.
