Espresso, cappuccino, latte; whatever your poison, if you’re a self-confessed coffee fiend, this selection of homewares should get you buzzing.

Choose stylish items to help feed your addiction, from affordable coffee machines in bright bold colours, to reusable takeaway cups for your daily Starbucks. And if you want to go a step further, you can invest in items that create a coffee house feel.

Evoke the look of Central Perk from Friends with plush bright sofas, sumptuous oversized cushions, and shabby chic leather armchairs. Or, tying in with the autumnal interiors colour trend for rich coffee browns, spruce up alcove walls with a lick of dark brown paint and combine with soft accessories such as cream cable-knit wool cushions, for that touch of cafe au lait chic.
