Over the last few years, ‘-porn’ has become a popular suffix, especially on the internet. Food-porn, property-porn, holiday-porn; you name it, if it’s something we crave, aspire to, or merely enjoy looking at, you’ll find the word ‘porn’ after it somewhere online. Probably Instagram. Or Pinterest.
Maybe it’s a sign of age, but recently I’ve found myself scrolling through pages of bookcases, shelving units, and assorted soft furnishings. That’s what happens when you move house, I guess – though lord knows, we do not need any more bookcases. There’s plenty out there to admire, whether you’re looking for antiques, checking out some of the boutique/independent stores around London, or just sticking with the likes of Habitat and I**A. Some of it is even pretty sexy. But pornographic? Eh, I’m not so sure…
Of course it doesn’t take much to make furniture hot – you really don’t have to try too hard. And sometimes – sometimes – it’s more just about getting other things hard…

You probably just put the porn in ‘Furniture Porn’.
Is it bad that I noticed the flamingoes first! But I agree with the others, this would certainly brighten up and furniture catalogue.
