Since the bottom dropped out of the housing market, people have been coming to terms with the reinstatement of an old truth. Houses are homes – places to live in, not places to sell. Gone are the days of carefully decorating in neutral colours so prospective buyers wouldn’t be put off by personal taste. Bland vases breaking up a colourless space are things of the past, belonging to an age when the property ladder still had rungs. Home furnishings – real things, designed to make real places into living spaces – are back.
Home furnishings are anything that, to steal an old phrase, “makes a house a home”. Home furnishings can be sofas, or beds or wardrobes. Home furnishings can also be candlesticks, ornamental bowls, cushions: anything that makes a space a place in which a person lives, rather than a temporary abode they inhabit until someone offers to buy.
