Reminiscent of the Merrow Associates designs of the late 60s and with definite modernist influence, the Orcus secretary desk by Konstantin Grcic, is certainly a stylish piece of furniture.

Why secretary desk? Well, if you pull down the front (as you'll see from the image over the page), you get an office desk, with a writing service of black leather, support for a laptop and room for any cables you might need. There's also four drawers, six shelves and a lockable secret compartment.

And in terms of looks, it has a real walnut veneer, with a frame of chromium-plated steel tubing. If you want one, it will set you back around £3,500.

Not just any target cushion, this is a designer target cushion – specifically the Jonathan Adler Lucky Strike cushion.

Available in three colours combinations (including the two picture above), the cushions are sized at 61 x 61cm, with the New York designer offering up a hand-loomed wool outer with double-sided design and 'full feather' core.

Not cheap, but slightly cheaper right now at the Rume sale at £97.50.

The TMM Floor Lamp was designed by Miguel Milá in 1961 and entered in the Economic Furniture competition in 1962 where it won the ADI FAD Critics Prize. It was re-issued in 1988 by Santa & Cole who have been manufacturing it since.

It consists of a wooden shaft (in a choice of beech, wenge or cherry) with a drum-shaped parchment shade (in beige or white). The upper part of the shaft is cylindrical which allows the shade to move freely, so it can be adjusted to control the light.

The TMM Floor Lamp is available from Designer Lights with prices ranging from £385 for beech with a beige shade up to £483 for wenge with a white shade. Visit Designer Lights for al the options.
