Furniture fetish

On Saturday I just happened to pass by the new flagship Made showroom on Charing Cross Road and couldn't resist dipping in for a quick look. It's their biggest showroom yet, a large space with polished concrete floors and a series of room sets, designed to give customers a hands-on feel for their designs.

Made is an online furniture supplier who cuts out the middleman. When you buy something from them, they connect you straight to the designers, which means you save up to 70% off the retail price. On top of that, they have a selection of rather lovely items, that I often covet!

You can try out a selection of their items in their new showroom, and then check them out online whilst in the show room as well as place orders from the team. On top of this, they have a postcard wall where you can take away cards with details of 600 of their products. Needless to say, I had a bit of fun picking out some of my favourite items. Each postcard is in a pull-out draw, with an accompanying fabric swatch to give a feel for colour and texture. Very satisfying! Below are some samples of what I brought home.

Pull out each draw to reveal a postcard and colour swatch to take home with you.
