 Modern baroque chair
Isn’t this a striking dining chair? You can’t help but be drawn in by the intricate cut-out detail on the back of the chair.
Produced in a modern baroque style, the dining chair is suitable for use both indoors and outside and is comfortable to sit on, as well as looking very on trend with the cutwork design.
The Aurora modern dining chair is available in black or white (we think the black looks stunning) and is £125 from Love Your Home for Less.

 Fold-up garden seat We love the idea of this low, fold-up seat. It would be perfect for using in the garden when you’re entertaining, if you want to pop out and sit in the sun for a few minutes or if you’re hosting a barbecue. It’s also useful to take with you to other outdoor events and is the perfect size for use on a picnic or at a festival.
The chair is small, lightweight and easy to carry and is made in England from recycled polypropelene.
The low fold-up seat is available from The Urban Garden, where it’s currently reduced in price.

 Stripy chair This colourful stripy directors chair is a great way of adding some colour into your seating. The chair is made from wood that is FSC, or certified as sustainable, and it’s been treated with oil so that you can successfully use it outside without the wood deteriorating.
The directors chair would be great for use in a conservatory, or outdoors when the weather improves and it folds down well for storage purposes.
The stripe chair is available from Sainsbury’s. The usual cost for one chair is £29.99, but if you buy a pair, you can currently take advantage of a special offer for two chairs for £40.

 Retro grey chair If you like all things retro, then you’ll like this grey circles chair from Dwell.
It’s classed as a dining chair, but to us it looks a bit big and bulky for sitting down in for a formal meal. It would be much better to relax in, or perch in at a breakfast bar.
The height of the chair is adjustable and it’s finished in chrome and a faux leather material.
Find out more, or buy the retro grey circles chair, at Dwell.

Bring your favourite comic heroes into your home, in the form of these unusual comic decoupage chairs.
Handmade from reclaimed vintage 1950s chairs, the chairs have been re-designed and given a completely new look, with the help of comic decoupage.
If you’ve got a favourite comic, then you can pick which one you’d like adorning the chair – the blue one above, for example, features Superman. You also get to choose the colour of the seat pad.
If comics aren’t your cup of tea, there’s also the option to have a chair covered in the pages of a favourite magazine, map or even a newspaper.
These unique chairs are created by Bombus and are available to order through Not On The High Street.

 Statement cushion Osborne & Little are well known for their wallpaper and fabric design and have created this Prima Donna cushion for part of Heal’s ReDiscovers range.
Using traditional floral designs, the cushion is given a modern feel with its black and fluorescent pink roses and silver background. If you like the design and fancy more than just the cushion, there are a whole load of other matching items available, including a lampshade, rug, armchair and drum pouffe.
Personally, we feel that one or two pieces is enough to make a statement, as too much can be a bit overpowering, but each to their own.
The cushion is available from Heal’s, who are celebrating their 200th year anniversary in 2010, so look out for special offers in store and online throughout the year.

 Gorgeous sari cushions We’ve all for mixing design ideas and themes, and antique and vintage pieces can successfully work alongside modern and contemporary. Take these antique sari seat pads from Myakka, for example.
We’ve fallen in love with the fabric and colours – wonderful embroidery, rich colours, unusual designs, gold detailing and a rainbow of colours – and love the fact that each cushion is finished off with beaded tassels in the corners.
They’re designed to be seat pads – used for sitting on – but if you think they’re a bit too nice to be squashed, you could easily use them as cushions for decorative purposes. A pale or neutral coloured sofa would look great with a few of these dotted around on it.
Each seat pad is unique, with no two being exactly the same, so you can’t guarantee exactly what colour or design you’ll get. As far as we’re concerned, that just adds to the uniqueness.
The antique sari seat pads are sold individually for £14.95 each or as a set of four for £55, from Myakka.
