 Net gains: the brains behind ASOS launch brand new interiors site ACHICA.com

ASOS Achica.com homewares furniture

ASOS.com is doing interiors? Well, not quite, but one of its founders, Quentin Griffiths, is launching a new site, ACHICA.com, on Monday 1st February. It’s a private members homeware e-store with new promotions every other day, selling big brands such as Riedel, Jamie Oliver, La Cafetiere and Yves Delorme bed linen (above) at up to 70% off. Each sale only lasts for 48-72 hours though, so make sure you sign up now if you want to be in it to win it.

They say: “Our buyers have spent months cherry-picking products across homewares which we think will be aspirational and inspirational.”

We say: “It’s like the first day of the sales, only without all that nasty pushing and shoving, and full of stuff you would actually want to buy.”
