THE WALLS of the sittingroom of 183 North Circular Road are a warm and soft ferny green that is perfect in south-facing rooms. This is Glendale by Colortrend and is available from MRCB (01 6798755), price €59.99 per 5 litres. A white ceiling and coving and window frames with simple blinds on twin windows keeps the look uncluttered.

The Prato chair from Bo Concept (01 2932008) is another option but won’t be available in stores until September. It costs €1,184 with a swivel function and a chrome base. The Bo Concept summer sale starts tomorrow with reductions of up to 35 per cent off certain stock.

The Waterford-style couch, also from Sofa Factory, has been upholstered in a rich aubergine-coloured velvet from Designers Guild. Expect to pay €3,500 for something similar.
