Førest London


I am forever on the hunt for beautifully designed pieces, one source of a never ending parade of stunning furniture is Scandinavia. They have one of the best track records for well-designed modern pieces of furniture in history, with a mixture of their perfectionist style, strict modernist mind-set and simple yet functional approach to design, time and time again they create icons. I have found a site based in London that solely sells traditional mid-century pieces from Scandinavia – so happy right now. Førest London buy and sell traditional pieces of iconic furniture and lighting from the 50’s-60’s but also do regular collaborations with modern artists and designers. As well as being a brilliant source to buy furniture, it’s also just a really good collection of Scandinavian design, kind of like a look book. I am currently particularly taken with these traditional 1960’s pair of armchairs from Bovenkamp, also this beautiful desk lamp by designer J. Hoogervorst, absolutely stunning. So If you’re interested get on over and havea little snoop!
