Our Stylist Says
I really like this blackout curtain for its clean, contemporary look and practical benefits. The charcoal hue adds depth and works well in both modern and minimal interiors, especially when paired with neutral or monochrome palettes. The pencil pleat design offers versatility, making it easy to style in a variety of window sizes and shapes. As a stylist, I’d suggest layering these with lighter or textured curtains for added dimension, or using them on their own for a striking, sleek window treatment. They’re ideal for bedrooms where light control and privacy are priorities, but they can also be a smart choice for media rooms or dedicated home cinemas. Keep the styling simple to let the dark tone make a statement; perhaps accentuate nearby decor with metallic or natural elements to balance the overall aesthetic.

About Habitat
The Birth of Habitat
In 1964, Sir Terence Conran founded Habitat in London, aiming to bring a fresh European touch to UK home decor.
The first store, located on Fulham Road in Chelsea, became the blueprint for all Habitat stores to come. The store stood out with its distinct design, and was famously known for selling affordable pasta storage jars just as the pasta market began booming in the UK.
Rapid Expansion & Legacy
Habitat grew swiftly in the UK during the 1960s and even crossed borders with its first international store in Paris in 1973.
The brand's journey through the decades saw various mergers and acquisitions, including its integration with Sainsbury's Group in 2017.
Habitat's innovation extended beyond products; they even launched a mail-order system in 1966 and initiated the concept of flat-pack furniture in 1971.
Celebrating its rich history, the brand marked its 50th anniversary in 2014 by collaborating with past designers and commissioning a special logo.
Innovation & Collaboration
Habitat has always been at the forefront of modern design. Throughout its history, the brand has been renowned for its collaborations with acclaimed artists and designers, ensuring it consistently offers unique, limited-edition collections.
Under the umbrella of the Sainsbury's Group since 2017, Habitat continues its tradition of merging contemporary aesthetics with functional design, solidifying its reputation as a leading name in home furnishings.
