Who? Jacqueline Hammond
What? With such great weather right now, we are revelling in the time to lounge in the sun. That’s why we love the deckchairs designed by Jacqueline Hammond. The one featured above, entitled “Mum’s drive home”, depicts “an atmospheric drive down a winding road from a coastal town in Devon”. There’s something of “anywhere but here” about them and that’s sort of nice, right now. Priced at £99.

Our favourite seats in the house are often not the spacious sofas but those stand alone armchairs. Why? Because we love the promise of personal space that comes from their made-for-one premise. Added to that is the fact that they are often much more daring in design. With that in mind, we’ve picked a few of our favourite contemporary armchairs. Maya armchair from Darlings of Chelsea The Maya chair from Darlings of Chelsea is perfect for those who like to lean.

Who? Habitat What? Designed by Jon Almond exclusively for Habitat, this Spectrum multi-coloured wall clock is inspired by the Cuisenaire rods used to teach children how to count in units. But we think it reminds us of a conch. Or perhaps abstract art. Or maybe the number six. Either way, we like how it’s open to interpretation. Priced at £40. When? Available now Where?

Who? Shabby Chic What? Ok, we admit it, this lace dinnerware set from Shabby Chic is totally twee but we just can’t stop adoring it. There has to be a time and a place for this right? Anyhow, it’s made from practical hard wearing earthenware and is microwave and dishwasher safe. Not too shabby. Prices start from £5.60. When? Available now Where?

Who? Made.com What? We love the smooth, flowing shape of this Rhapsody bedside table lamp from Made.com. Designed by Cristiana Ionescu, it’s made to be functional first – they say that it “diffuses a gentle ambient light to help you switch off”. We say this is elegant, switched on design. Priced at £29.
