Maybe you’re seeking an entire retro feel for your home with bold textures, 1970’s inspired patterns and statement furniture. Take a look at our furniture range for retro-style trolleys, side tables and chairs to transform your home spaces to fit with this revival home interior trend.

We also have some great pieces which will add retro accents to your room with minimal commitment.

Retro Inspired Homeware at Black By Design

Our Retro Lover range encompasses the eclectic style of nostalgia with various old skool games and home accessories. We love the beautifully striking retro telephones by Wild & Wolf which offer various lovely colour combinations to suit the nostalgia decades, such as English mustard, petrol blue and concrete grey. Place on a wicker side table with an accompanying plant for everyday retro style in your hallway or living room.

Put your hi-tech music playing equipment aside and embrace the complete nostalgia experience with a beautiful turntable which will allow you to sink into the aural dream of vinyl music. A quality record player is a must-have for any retro loving home guy or gal. The GPO turntables we have are also aesthetically pleasing, with the bright red Memphis turntable bound to become a talking point at house parties.

For extra little touches to your bookshelves or side tables, there are some cute wooden animal ornaments from Kay Bojesen which act as playful characters and a way to bring some fun to a child’s room. For those who seek some features from even further back down the interior timeline of trends, we have a decadent chess set and an illuminated globe which would look ideal in an office space or dining room.

We have some really fun pieces in our Retro Lover gift range for you to enjoy. Whether you’re buying as a gift for a loved one, or want to indulge in your own retro living dream, there’s something for everyone!
