Jonas Bohlin designed the Concrete Chair in 1980 and its name derives from the fact that it was originally made from concrete.

As a concrete seat might be too severe for even the most austere of homes, it is now available in the most inviting options of natural ash or black stained ash.

It costs just over £955 from the Scandinavian Design Center.

New in at Dwell is the Mixed Messages Mug.

The mug comes with 150 numbers and characters so you can create your own personalised message. The end result looks rather like a ransom note, which always brings to mind a punk aesthetic. It looks as if it would hold quite a lot of tea too, which is always a good thing in our book.

The mug costs £16.95 from the Dwell website.
