First impressions
Much more than a must-have for finding your keys at night, door-side lighting can also help bag a wow moment before guests have even stepped foot in the house. Interesting shapes and intricate surfaces are key; we’re big fans of the paper-like folds of Vibia’s origami outdoor wall lights.
Street smart
Knock knock, who’s there? Find out even when you’re away with Arlo’s Audio Doorbell. once pushed, it’ll call your mobile, lettingyou respond remotely via two-way audio, an optional wire-free camera or pre-recorded messages. Those amazon deliveries will never go missing again...

HELLO FLOWER
Balcony boxes are the urban dweller’s best friend. From Ferm Living and Herman Studio, the Bau series is all steel surfaces, fluted lines and classic shades. Mount en masse for an instant oasis.
Clug in
If only everything was as simple and easy to use as Hornit’s Clug bike rack. Just nail to a wall or floor and slot tires in between to enjoy a small yet efficient two-wheel storage system.
HIT THE DECK
Inspired by the beauty of nature but built to 'outperform it’ is the motto at Millboard. Its wood-look external surfaces comprise layers of mineral resin moulded onto antique timber, promising not to split, rot or host unsightly algae. See them at the brand’s new hub on Clerkenwell’s Goswell Road.
