Description
Meaning 'cloud' in Italian, the Four-Seater Nuvola is large enough to accommodate friends and family more than comfortably. Designed by Danish studio Says Who exclusively for Heal’s, the sofa features curves in all the right places. It features solid wooden feet and comes in a choice of Heal's fabrics. It’s a beautiful piece that pairs with the other sofas and beds in the collection.
Our Stylist Says
I love this sofa for its versatile colour and modern silhouette, making it a real statement piece that can anchor various interior styles. The Airforce blue velvet adds a rich, sophisticated feel, perfect for contemporary or luxe interiors, but it can also work beautifully in more eclectic or even minimalist schemes when paired with neutral accessories. Its natural oak feet introduce a warm, grounding element that balances the colour and texture of the fabric. Practical styling tips include layering with textured cushions in contrasting shades for added visual interest or pairing with softer, neutral-toned throws for a cozy touch. It works well in open-plan living areas or larger lounges where its substantial presence can be appreciated and easily styled alongside other statement pieces.

About Heal's
A Rich Legacy in Furniture Design
Heal's is a well-known British furniture store with a history that spans over 200 years. It began in 1810 when John Harris Heal and his son started a business for feather products but soon moved into furniture.
By the 1900s, almost everyone in London knew Heal's for its great furniture. Interestingly, they were also among the first to sell electric lights in Britain. During World War II, their main store even helped by making parachutes for soldiers.
Influences and Design Philosophy
A significant part of Heal's story is Sir Ambrose Heal, who worked there for 60 years, from 1893 to 1953. He had a unique idea combine the beautiful designs from the Arts and Crafts Movement with affordable manufacturing.
This meant more people could buy well-designed furniture without breaking the bank. If you visit the Heal's store on Tottenham Court Road in London, you'll see a cool spiral staircase and a statue of a bronze cat, both of which show off the company's unique style.
Modern Expansion and Growth
While Heal's has a long history, they're always looking forward. In 2001, a company named Wittington Investments bought Heal's, helping it to grow and open stores in many cities, including Manchester and Leeds.
They've also started selling products online, aiming to be a modern e-commerce store with physical showrooms. Their main Tottenham Court Road store celebrated 200 years in 2018. Recently, they revamped it, making it even better for shoppers.
