Funky Accent Chairs Vintage Sofas And Life In East London

Student living in East London is messy but fun. The flat looked more squat than home, but we built it piece by piece. Flat-pack breaks too quick, so we searched markets. One mate found a sofa in Hackney. It felt like Shoreditch, but that’s what made it home. Chairs with scars feel stronger, and it fits our lifestyle. I’ve fallen asleep in a battered armchair with a book, and those seats carried us. Markets spill luxury chairs uk onto the streets, and students rely on it.

One afternoon I stumbled into Smithers, and the sofas looked like they belonged in films. We couldn’t afford much, but that chair still sits in the flat. Ask around and you’ll hear it. it’s half the fun. Retro sofas don’t care if you spill. Flat-pack won’t last a term, but old sofas age into character. every creak is another laugh. When you’re moving out, the stress disappears, but you remember the sofa. When you start student life, skip the flat-pack rubbish.

Take home something with scars, and see how it shapes your memories.
