London’s Retro Revival: Why Vintage Armchairs and Sofas Still Rule Retro chairs and sofas have been part of my life for funky sofa years. Growing up, there was a sofa in our house that had seen it all. It weren’t showroom-perfect, but it told a story. Back in the sixties, a sofa wasn’t just a sofa. You’d keep the same chair your whole life. That history clings to vintage pieces. I rescued a battered traditional armchair from outside a shop in Peckham.

The legs were wobbling, but the weight told me it was the real deal. Friends always fight to sit in it. London’s furniture scene splits by neighbourhood. Belgravia keeps it polished, with grand accent chairs. Shoreditch stays messy, with upcycled seats. The contrast keeps it alive. Showroom sofas don’t talk back. Old-school sofas grow with you. They carry scratches like tattoos. If you ask me straight, single long chair a battered sofa tells more truth than any showroom.

A sofa should tell your story. When you walk past a glossy showroom, stop and think of the markets. Pick up a retro armchair, and make it part of your story.
