HipVan

Furniture shouldn’t cost an arm and leg, and HipVan knows it. The homegrown store prides itself on fair pricing across more than 5,000 designs: think L-shaped sofas and other sectionals, lounge chairs, hammocks, chest drawers, and bookshelves, as well as homeware such as planters and wall decals. While most of its furniture is sold online, a selection’s available for viewing at HipVan’s flagship store – or else, it’s free returns (by way of store credits) within two weeks of purchase on its website. The New York Sofa ($399) wins with its multi-coloured tuft buttons and rose gold chrome-plated legs, but we’re just as much fans of the copper Ribbon Wall Clock ($96.80).
