PRIZED PEDESTAL E A pedestal side table not only looks great but is a clever solution for small spaces. Here the Madras Link Emery Cocktail Table with its curved wine glass shaped base connects with the bold graphic rug..

CON DISPLAY Bookcases are not just for books, they’re a versatile piece of furniture to bring personality and interest to living spaces. This elegant West Elm Mid-Century Acorn Bookcase from Ballantynes adds layers of character. MID-CENTURY GRAPHIC E Textiles are a colourful way to create a mid-century look. Bold graphic patterns like this Sonny Moon Rug by Fane Flaws in 100 per cent New Zealand wool brings a sophisticated sense of fun. CCURVED COMFORT Nothing says relaxed luxury like the texture of bouclé in this mid-century silhouette. The curved high back and deep cushioned seat of the Betty Bouclé Occasional Chair by Le Forge from Ballantynes brings style and comfort to any space.

DSCULPTURAL SEATING These sculptural sheepskin floor cushions can be used as a floor seat or footstool but are soft enough to cosy up and lay your head on for relaxed lounging or reading on the floor.

LIGHT READING E The Gingko Smart Book Light masquerades as a natural leather book, but when opened, it transforms into a sculptural long-lasting LED light that’s an ideal choice for a reading space.

Resene Cashmere

WARMING WOOL E Large woollen rugs like this Quadriglia rug from Dilana designed by artist Chiara Corbelletto, bring a luxurious warmth underfoot, while this graphic pattern brings warmth to the eye and echoes the curves of the chair. BSIDE STATEMENT A side table can sometimes be a focal point. This Madras Link Ponte Brass Side Table with curved brass detailing and a glass top is a statement piece in this cosy nook.

Resene Twine

Resene Lone Ranger

Cosy nook

Three soft colours combine to create a soothing layered effect, to match the texture of the Betty Bouclé Occasional Chair from Ballantynes with accessories to mirror the curves.
