Make a statement that shows off your true style

Make a style statement. Adding a feature piece of furniture to a room, which says something about you, your style and how you like to live, is a great way of making your house your home. For example, you could emulate the French style you admired during a recent holiday.

If you like to be bold and dramatic, the oversized Floriana Mirror has a stand-out style, thanks to its intricately carved wooden frame in reclaimed pine. If big ornate styles aren't really your thing, you may be looking for a sleeker, more contemporary look which reflects your own style. If you like the minimalism of a monochrome colour palette, but feel it doesn't really do your personality justice, an injection of colour to contrast with the black and white can lift the look.

For example, the Mahina dining chairs are comfortably curvy, with a slim, sleek design. The Birch wood legs in black finish will match your monochrome dining table, while its vintage moleskin fabric in candy pink or damson purple, add a fun, contemporary contrast, reflecting your personality.

If you're looking for a more masculine look, with character and style, the Hector chair with leather seat and studded, spitfire metal frame, would be ideal in any bachelor pad.

The Earlston range has a beautiful heirloom feel thanks to the bleached pine the chests and cabinets are made from. Their Bety Office Cabinet adds quirky, but classic character to any office space. Team it with the Varick office chair, which has a great retro design in antique whisky leather and stud detail, for a unique, masculine look. .
