Interiors: Style doctor
Q: I love 1950s-style furniture and have bought quite a few pieces at auction. I am currently trying to find bedside tables, without any success. Could you help?

A: Interior designer Doreen Smith says, the Mid Century two-tone solid wood side tables with drawers will look stunning in your room. This classic 1950s-style retro cabinet has two-tone drawers in dark and light wood, aged metal handles and angled legs, which give it a vintage appeal. It stands at 45cm (w) x 40cm (d) x 45cm (h) and costs £259.

Q: I thought I had come across a coffee table with stools that sit under it, but can’t remember where. Do you know where I might find one?
A Hill
A: Dwell does a square walnut veneer coffee table with hidden legs, creating a space for four faux leather stools – extra seating that tucks neatly under the coffee table when not needed. The table measures 45cm (h) x 90cm (w) x 90cm (d), while the stools are 41cm (h) x 43cm (w) x 43cm (d). It costs £499.
