I reach this city when Empire Windrush dock. When it come to seat, mi know what last. We only could afford old sofa, but seat crack but it never mash up. Nowadays dem want flat-pack quick. Step in Portobello, sofa carry story deep. Not new outta box, but dem live long. Long time before internet, Sofa stay whole family life. Every spring hold laugh and cry. Man look pon we like crazy, but It creak but it strong. Dat sofa part of mi life. Postcode tell story too.
Kensington love velvet, wid velvet accent chair. Dalston funky, wid retro chair mash-up. Modern flat-pack? Mi tell you straight – rubbish. Old funky accent chair funky seat grow wid you. Listen dis, mi love vintage over flat-pack. When you pass market, pick up sofa wid story, classic armchairs and let it be part of your life.
