Our Stylist Says
I’ve been using the Leo two-seater in projects because its deep, cushioned tufting and gentle curves bring both comfort and a contemporary edge without dominating the space. The low profile works particularly well in modern apartments, Scandi-inspired homes or even sleek industrial schemes, offering a relaxed focal point that still reads as refined. For styling, soften the look with a couple of textured cushions in ochre or burnt sienna, and drape a knitted throw over one arm. Position it opposite a simple wooden or metal coffee table to balance the volume, and add a tall leafy plant or a slim floor lamp to create height contrast. The result is inviting, practical and effortlessly on-trend.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
