Ploof & Soft Eggs

If this summer is the shape of things to come, then maybe it is worth investing in some really stylish outdoor furniture. So ditch your tin of linseed oil and order this vibrant ploof two seater, designed by Phillippe Stark. The sofa could be yours for £417 or the armchair for 244, all from that lovely Nottingham shop Atomic Interiors . Plus it comes in lots of gorgeous colours, is made of polyethylene and has anodised aluminium legs.

Or how about these beautiful Soft Eggs chairs, also designed by Philippe Starke. Stackable and suitable for in or outdoor use, cost £76 and are available in ivory, yellow, orange or dark grey. Out with the wood and in with the longer lasting plastic fantastic.
