Don't just hang your coat just anywhere – hang it on the Offside hanger by LADP.
Yes, based on a classic table football game (also known as foosball in some parts), it's the work of Norwegian designer Runa Klock, who has matched up larger versions of the little men, fixing them to a stainless steel or white lacquered aluminium frame.
Choose from red, green, blue or yellow for the colours, with the price at £47.14.
The Opal Formica Table is the first product from Ella Doran to feature her Opal pattern.
Like the Geometric Repeat pattern that was introduced last year, the Opal is a op-art design that is more subtle than Ella Doran’s more famous work. Here it is used on a table top made from Formica (always good for creating a retro look), on a James Leonard school desk-style table.
The table is available to buy from the Ella Doran website, priced £350.
B&Q is always a good place to look for interesting and affordable lighting without the big price tag, which this Cupola table lamp is certainly an example of.
Available in various colours (not just the red above), it reminds us of both the Verner Panton Flopwerpot light and his Panthella lamp – not a bad marriage, we have to say.
Made of metal, the lamp stands at just 38cm tall, has an in-line hand switch and needs a 40w bulb for light – the latter likely to add a couple of quid onto the modest £15.98 price tag for the lamp.
If you're looking to add some retro glamour to your home and don't want to spend a small fortune, you may want to take a look at the Starburst range at Next.
The range takes its cue from the Art Deco movement, with lots of mirrored surfaces and sharp lines, and succeeds in creating some unusual pieces, such as the angular side table and the wall-mounted console pictured above. They've even got some starburst mirrors to help top off the look.
For an idea of prices, the side table costs for £90, while the wall console retails for £250.

A simple and stylish addition to a room, this table costs £49.99

The Small Circles Coffee Table is one for our readers in the USA, as it is made in Portland and shipping it further a field seems unlikely.
Michael Arras makes these one-of-a-kind cocktail/coffee tables by joining together small pieces of high-grade birch plywood into one whole table. The one shown here is stained a cinnamon colour, but there are another 16 colours if this doesn’t suit.
The table costs $399 and can be ordered online from Michael Arras’ Etsy Store.
