Add some mid-century style to your house with these Flora floor tiles from Flor.
Flor are the company behind the La Fonda Del Sol and this design, featuring leaves, butterflies, birds and flowers, is also inspired by Alexander Girard's distinctive style.
The design is available in three different colourways and is sold in six tile packs: you could obviously put several packs together to cover a larger area if necessary.
They cost $159.99 for six tiles.

This ceramic fish platter from Sagaform references both its geographical and design heritage.
It's designed to bring a traditional Scandinavian platter of fish-based delicacies to your table while it also has a definite 1950s look, not dissimilar to Marianne Nilsson's Herring design dating from that decade and available from New House Textiles.
This platter is clearly intended for display as well as use, with a hole at the top enabling it to be hung up on the kitchen wall. Like Nilsson's design, it's also available on a jar – perfect for storing away your fishy delicacies.
The platter costs £19.95.

It's got a design that looks like it's straight from the 70s but this Maisie duvet set from John Lewis is actually a contemporary design.
Certainly not the duvet to go for if you want a calm and neutral look in your bedroom, this design has a strong folk influence and uses birds, flowers and other trailing plants to create its distinctive pattern. The retro feel is enhanced by the blue and green against white colour scheme.
The duvet cover costs between £35 to £65 depending on size while pillow cases are £15 to £18.

Etoile Home have just introduced the Dorothy, Betty and Tiki rugs, inspired by 1950s patterns.
Produced in collaboration with Rug Designers, the rugs all feature bold patterns, evident in the leaf design of Betty, shown on the left hand side of the image and in the florals of the Tiki and the Dorothy design, shown on the right. The rugs come in various colour combinations and are all hand-made from 100% wool.
The patterns get their distinctive names after the aunts of Etoile Home's founder, Shani Beadle. You'll be seeing more of these ladies over the coming months as the prints will be rolled out on other products.
Prices start at £680 for the Tiki rug and £699 for the Betty and Dorothy rugs.

Another interesting fabric design courtesy of St Jude's, The Captain's Pattern designed by Jonny Hannah.
A while back we showed you Hannah's print for the Museum of British Folklore and this fabric design celebrates some of the folklore and customs of the sea. There's mermaids, deep-sea divers and vintage tattoo-style designs, all interspersed with images of anchors and executed in his trademark style. It's a two colour design (either red/blue or blue/blue) printed onto heavy weight cotton.
The fabric costs £38 per metre or you can buy it as ready-made cushion covers for £32.

The latest collection of wallpapers from Jonathan Adler is every bit as striking and colourful as you'd expect of the designer.
The new designs encompass a range of styles – all distinctively retro in feel. Like his previous collections, the geometric floral pattern of the paper on the left echoes the style of David Hicks. Meanwhile, the design on the right – part of his range for kids – is reminiscent of Alexander Girard's La Fonda design.
Both papers cost $195 for a 'jumbo' roll: with that price (and with those bright colours), they're perhaps something to limit to a feature wall.
