Description
Design. Add a contemporary look to your living room with the Fontella Medium Sofa. Boasting modern style, the Fontella features square arms and sleek chrome feet, which can be changed to light or dark wood if you prefer. A woven fabric finish and soft fibre filled cushions make this a comfortable and versatile choice for any home. Please note: Unfortunately the fabric on the scatter cushions shown is no longer available.
Our Stylist Says
The Fontella medium sofa is a versatile piece that works well in both contemporary and traditional interiors thanks to its classic silhouette and soft hue. I love how its streamlined design and comfortable proportions make it an inviting focal point in a living room. Styling tip: add a mix of textured cushions and throws to give it a layered, cosy feel, while pairing it with neutral or pastel shades to enhance its calming palette. It also pairs beautifully with wooden or metallic accents, making it adaptable for various furnishings and colour schemes. Practical tip: its size makes it suitable for both larger open-plan spaces and more compact living rooms, offering comfort and style without overwhelming the space.

A Remarkable Journey
Born from the vision of two young RAF men, Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse, Barker and Stonehouse emerged as a beacon of hope, infusing post-war Britain with a hint of glamour. Starting from a single store in Stockton on Tees, their entrepreneurial spirit led to rapid expansion, opening multiple stores across the region.
Their fast growth was fueled not only by their flair for business but also by their dedication to innovation. The business transformed over the years, adapting to the changing landscapes of retail, all while preserving its charm and values. By 2021, they marked an impressive 75 years in the industry, a testament to their enduring commitment to quality and customer service.
Sustainability at the Forefront
From the very start, Barker and Stonehouse has held a deep commitment to the environment. This devotion was showcased through initiatives such as the Trees4Trees Project, a reforestation effort in Indonesia.
Ensuring that for every tree used in their products, more than two were replanted, nearly 1.5 million trees have been restored under this initiative.
Their Knaresborough store, one of the greenest retail stores in the UK, further underscores their dedication to sustainable practices. As a cherry on top, by 2021, the company achieved the status of "Carbon Neutral Plus", making them a trailblazer in the furniture industry.
Innovative Spaces and Expanding Horizons
Over the decades, Barker and Stonehouse didn't just expand in number, but in the quality and innovation of their spaces. From opening their iconic store in Battersea, London, which beautifully preserved the characteristics of an old candle factory, to their latest state-of-the-art Gateshead store in 2023, every location tells a story.
They have also ventured into digital realms, ensuring a vast online presence and offering a wide range of products to customers all over the UK. Their partnerships, like the one with Fenwick in 2021, illustrate their adaptability and constant quest to reach new audiences.
