Description
Smart, tailored lines and gently contoured arms give The Sixty Eight a compact, contemporary form with a hint of vintage style. Distinctive turned wooden feet reflect signature G Plan design. In collaboration with Hemingway Design we've created G Plan Vintage, a stunning range of furniture inspired by classic G Plan sofas and chairs from the 50s and 60s. Named after the year of the original model that influenced the current designs, they blend timeless details with a contemporary approach. It's a collection that embraces the quality and craftsmanship of G Plan, as well as Hemingway's fresh and vibrant approach to vintage projects.

Our Stylist Says
The G Plan Vintage three-seater sofa is an excellent choice for those looking to add a touch of retro charm with a contemporary edge. Its generous proportions make it perfect for larger living spaces, while the clean lines and classic design ensure it works well in both mid-century modern and more eclectic interiors. I love pairing this piece with understated accessories like textured cushions and vintage-inspired rugs to create a cosy yet stylish vibe. For practical styling, consider contrasting it with wooden side tables or metallic accents to bring out its vintage appeal without overwhelming the space. Its versatile silhouette makes it a reliable anchor in both relaxed family rooms and more polished lounge areas.

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.
