Our Stylist Says
The Torino 3 seater in Capelo linen-cotton delivers a balanced mix of comfort and classic style, making it a versatile choice for a variety of interiors. I love how its understated design lends itself well to both modern and traditional spaces, especially when paired with textured cushions or statement throws to add personality. Its sesame hue offers warmth without overpowering, while the black feet add a contemporary touch. For practicality, it works beautifully with neutral tones and layered textiles to create inviting, lived-in look. To style it effectively, consider placing it against a patterned wallpaper or within a cosy corner with soft lighting for a relaxed yet polished vibe.

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.
