Our Stylist Says
I love the Habitat blue border wool rug for its versatile, contemporary look and tactile quality. Its bold geometric pattern adds visual interest without overwhelming the space, making it a great statement piece for living rooms or bedrooms. The wool pile provides softness underfoot and durability, suitable for high-traffic areas. For styling, consider pairing it with muted furniture and complementing cushions to allow the pattern to stand out, or layer it over a neutral carpet to create a cosy, defined zone. Its size makes it perfect for anchoring seating arrangements or adding a pop of colour and pattern to more minimalist interiors.

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.
