The Beat That My Heart Skipped – A blog dedicated to daily design inspirations. By Rohini Wahi.

It’s so great to see one of our favourite interior shops hit London! Brighton based contemporary lifestyle retailer The Lollipop Shoppe launches a new branch this month in Old Spitalfields market in the East End of London.

Designed by leading architects Found Associates, the store is spread over two stories and has been stripped back to its former Victorian glory, gently marrying the old and the very new. I can’t wait to take a peek in person!

These ‘pivot’ standing wall cabinets by young Israeli designer Shay Alkalay were launched by Dutch brand Arco at the IMM Cologne furniture fair earlier this year.

There is pure genius in it’s simplicity – the unit rests against the wall and features drawers that pivot open rather than sliding. Unlike usual cabinets, these drawers can hinge, making it possible to open both at the same time – ideal for the morning rush!

They are available in a stunning variety of colours and finishes.

Lee Broom, famed for his unique neon lit and light studded furniture, has returned with a new collection, again turning pre-conceived notions of interior furnishings on their head. ‘Carpetry’ is part of his ‘Heritage Boy’ range which transfers materials found in flooring onto furniture items. Carpetry features, immense sideboards, console tables and lightshades all embellished using traditional carpet patterns. Aren’t they pretty? The pendant light is certainly my favourite.

Other aspects of the range are ‘Parquetry’ using parquet flooring to create patterns on furniture and ‘Tile’ using traditional wall and floor tiles to create furniture items. See all of his concepts here.

More breezy Spring seating – have you seen this unusual contemporary lace print Gatsby armchair from John Lewis? It reminds me of a high street version of something Marcel Wanders might create…

Since in my opinion Spring has officially sprung [I'm not taking no for an answer] and I’ve been working on some summer issues lately, I thought I’d share a gorgeous new find with you that is sure to make your spring a brighter one.

We’re all familiar with the iconic folding bistro and cafe chairs created at the end of the 19th century, these have proved to be one of the most versatile garden furniture styles and the interiors market is full of it’s variants.

Well, super chic French company Fermob have given the bistro chair a fabulous makeover – updating it with an ever so slightly more modern look and making it available in every colour you could ever wish for! 24 delightful colours to be precise… from storm grey to nutmeg, garnet to carrot and wisteria to apple… they chairs are also available with a choice of 10 styles of bistro tables.
