Another modernist classic from the workshops of ClassiCon – the Eileen Gray day bed.

It's been around since 1925, designed for a day of laziness for the affluent of the era – and still remaining a stylish and functional item for the hip and cool of 2009. For your (not inconsiderable) money, you get a base of chromium-plated steel tubing, a beechwood frame with rubber webbing and a loose mattress with Bonell-spring interior, covered in a choice of fabric or leather.

Prices start at £3,800.

Looking for something just a little bit different for your walls? You need the Aimee Wilder Analog Nights wallpaper.

It's a tribute to classic technology, with retro favourites like the record deck, ghetto blaster, cassette and reel-to-reel tape player, available in a choice of chocolate or metallic colour scheme.

The only downside is the price – $150 per roll, which is around £110 with the current exchange rate. Maybe go for just enough for a feature wall.

A design that screams the late 1960s – the Modus Orbital space age lounge chair.

The work of Christophe Pillet, the Orbital offers up high gloss GRP shell with a 'scooped' upholstered inner shell in a choice of coloured fabrics or if you fancy a bit more luxury, black leather.

Perfect if you're fitting out a space station, just as cool in any space age-themed home. Prices start around £1,300.
