The return of retro: modern furniture design with classic sophistication

Since their beginnings as a stall at Parklea Markets some 25 years ago, Fantastic Furniture has grown to be a household name for furniture in Australia. Today, they are one of the biggest sellers of furniture online in Australia, as well as in 75 furniture superstores around the country.

So, what’s the secret to Fantastic Furniture’s success? Their vision has always been clear: to provide well-designed, comfortable and liveable furniture at an affordable price point. In keeping with their mission, they’re continually innovating to provide quality and stylish furniture, with sound design principles at the core of everything they create.

Their newest exclusive furniture collection is no exception. The Retro range harks back to classic Scandinavian design, featuring iconic curves and angles, timber legs and cut-away handles. Marrying modern design with a retro finish, each piece is crafted from solid and engineered timber, with a classic two-tone white and oak colour scheme. For those who have been seeking out designer-level affordable furniture, Fantastic Furniture has certainly delivered.

The Retro collection encompasses statement items like the 6-seater oak finish dining table, the stylish and functional 2-drawer coffee table, 3-drawer buffet, and 160cm entertainment unit – but perhaps the most quintessential piece within the collection is the Eames-inspired Pop Chair. With solid hardwood legs and an archetypal moulded polyurethane seat in a choice of black or white, the Pop Chair invites you enjoy a relaxed dining experience as if in a bygone era.

Individual items from the Retro range stand alone as statement pieces within the home, but also complement each other beautifully without overwhelming. For those wanting a more complete 50s-inspired interior, the Retro Package features signature items from the collection including a 7-piece dining set, 2-drawer coffee table, 1-drawer lamp table, 160cm entertainment unit, and 3-drawer buffet. Completing the package is the stylish Jazz 3-seater fabric couch, customisable in a range of colours and patterns. The Jazz Sofa is also available for purchase on its own as part of the sofas and modulars collections.

Fantastic Furniture’s collection of retro furniture online is available now – head to their website to browse the range.

Happy shopping! ♥ KC.
