Price History
Description
The Habitat Vanessa is a classic that's all grown up. Taking inspiration from the Chesterfield, it is packed with detail for a big impact. Check out its wonderful vented low back, square frame and double-pipe trim. Smart, right? It doesn't stop there. It is also upholstered in a sumptuous grey velvet making it one smooth operator. This classy number is finished with black solid wood legs. Vanessa really is the cream of the crop.
Our Stylist Says
I really like this armchair because of its plush velvet finish and sleek silhouette, making it a versatile piece that can easily elevate both modern and classic interiors. The grey colour is neutral enough to work in a variety of colour schemes, from soft Scandinavian Scandinavian schemes to more dramatic, statement spaces. It’s ideal for small to medium living rooms or cosy reading corners, and it pairs well with tactile accessories like chunky throws or velvet cushions. For styling tips, I’d suggest adding a textured rug and some metallic accents to create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Its clean lines and subtle detailing make it an easy-to-incorporate addition that can be both functional and stylish.

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.
