Checkout the following sites;

www.vitra.co.uk and www.boconcept.com for furniture - interior design
companies use these two mainly for kitting out
www.intra-design.co.uk - for the latest in commercial/office interior design

have you also tried www.pantoneuniverse.com - gives the latest colour
trends - also worth a look is frame magasine - http://www.framemag.com/

For cheap designer furniture e.g. courbusier, van de rohe, panton, gray,.
etc go on ebay - I've bought most of my stuff from there at a quarter of the
price. Word of advice - don't buy from ocean - they're being taken over by
an italian design firm so are closing down and also they are extortionate
and the replica furniture they do is not good quality.
