We're in the process of buying a three bed, end of terrace Victorian house. We have nothing (currently in a furnished rental). We have been saving away and have also been given a very generous contribution towards kitting out our new house by relatives. Luckily, most white goods are included in the sale.
We need to kit out the dining room (I have my eye on the Ercol Chiltern at JL), living room, bedroom, kids bedroom (currently one ds, 13mo but hoping to add another in the next year or so), and kitchen. Also need a desk and decent futon for the spare room. Kitchen-wise, we have a fab engine-red Francis Francis but nothing else, no dinner service, cutlery set, anything.
Please inspire me! I'd love a slightly retro feel, mid-century modern slightly Scandinavian. Does that sound ridiculous in a Victorian house? Budget-wise we're looking at Habitat, JL, Dansk and a bit of ikea - all slightly confusing as we've always been strictly ikea in the past.
