Must-follow Instagram accounts for design fans: @Se_Collections has been one of the best-kept interior design secrets - until now

A luxury European design brand with timeless collections, Sé is reclaiming the glamour of 20th century furniture.

Since its launch in 2007, Sé's mission has been to 'reclaim the glamour and quality of 20th century furniture' through collections designed by some of the world's leading international designers. At the heart of the brand is the idea of play - with pieces recognisable for their unusual proportions and exaggerated shapes.

The company has announced the opening of its Fulham Road flagship showroom during London Design Festival 2016, which signals the brand's transition from working with career interior designers and high-end commercial fittings, to small-scale projects and family homes - giving the collections a more accessible feel.

Sé has created three collections so far, working with French designer Damien Langlois-Meurinne, the Spanish-born Jaime Hayon and Slovenia-based Nika Zupanc.

Collection I is glamorous and sculptural, with the Happiness Armchair by Langlois-Meurinne a standout product in the range thanks to its witty, enlarged take on a traditional wing armchair; Collection II by Hayon features curved bronze armchairs finished in soft velvets and marble side tables; while Collection III by Zupanc has Art Deco and 'Golden Age' Hollywood influences, with the elegantly simple Stay dining chair a particular success story.

What you get:

Über-luxe, contemporary designs. Sé's most recent collaboration - Collection III by Nika Zupanc - includes the Stay Family, of which the Stay Dining Chair has been a long-time best-seller. All products are upholstered to a customer's specification - in material or leather - and have a power-coated steel frame.

Why we like it:

The @se_collections account is a contemporary mix of the brand's best-sellers, luxe projects and new textures. The foundry shots give a great insight into the craftsmanship and processes behind the luxurious collections. The overall look is understated and elegant, we love the Happiness Chair by Damien Langlois-Meurinne.

Watch out for:

Sé's showroom opens at 60 Fulham Road on September 15, with the Stay bench by Nika Zupanc due to be presented in London for the first time. The London Design Festival will also be the setting for an exclusive launch of the new Stay Dining Table, with polished marble top and power-coated steel frame.
