Price History
Description
Squishy. Good-looking. And with mid-century dark wood legs. Three reasons why our new Dawdler sofa is a bit of alright.
Our Stylist Says
I love this corner sofa for its versatile, retro-inspired design that works well in both modern and vintage interiors. Its inviting shape makes it perfect for family rooms or open-plan spaces where comfort is key, while the earthy olive tone adds warmth and a touch of character. To style it effectively, consider layering with textured cushions and throws for a cosy feel, and pair with natural wood or brass accents to enhance its timeless appeal. Its clean lines and adaptable form also make it ideal for smaller or irregularly shaped rooms, maximising seating without overwhelming the space.

About Loaf
From Beds to Diverse Furniture
Loaf is a popular British furniture store that started as "The Sleep Room" by Charlie Marshall in 2008. Charlie used money from selling his old business and his savings to start it.
At first, they just sold beds, with Charlie researching 187 mattress and bed factories to ensure only the best products. But by 2012, they began selling other furniture like sofas, chairs, and lights, which led to its rebranding as "Loaf."
Their growth was so impressive that by 2013, they ranked 40th on the Sunday Times Fast Track 100, becoming the 3rd fastest growing retailer in the UK.
Sustainability and Ethical Approach
Loaf's commitment to the environment and ethical practices is evident in their efforts to ensure sustainable sourcing. They aim for all their materials to be responsibly sourced or derived from recycled materials by 2025.
For instance, the timber in their sofa frames comes from responsibly managed forests. Additionally, they're working towards reducing their carbon emissions, improving packaging to be 100% recyclable, and respecting animal welfare.
Notably, their wool will be certified to the Responsible Wool Standard by 2023. Loaf also ensures that all their employees, or 'Loafers,' are paid at least the 'real' Living Wage.
Locations and Community Engagement
Presently, Loaf boasts ten showrooms, uniquely referred to as 'slowrooms,' mainly around London. Beyond just business, they're active in community engagement.
They have partnered with St Mungo's, a leading UK charity, aiming to spend 10,000 hours over the next three years volunteering and raising funds to combat homelessness.
