Description
Product Information The Barbican range features a distinctive curved silhouette and stitched back detail for a retro-inspired look, supported by fibre wrapped foam seats for extra comfort. Medium: Striking a balance between support and comfort, this range has a medium comfort rating. With a foam structure designed to help retain shape, less plumping is required without compromising on the levels of comfort. As leather is a natural product, there are natural characteristics on each leather hide used to make our sofas. These could be things like brand marks, insect bites or wrinkles. A large sofa could be made with as many as four hides so there may also be some slight colour variation, however we have strict guidelines to make sure any noticeable marks aren't in a prominent place. These distinctive qualities also mean that no two pieces of leather furniture will be exactly the same.

Our Stylist Says
The John Lewis Barbican small two-seater is a sleek, contemporary piece that works well in both modern and transitional interiors. I love its minimalist profile and light wooden legs, which add a subtle warmth and a sense of airiness-making it ideal for smaller spaces or rooms where you want a touch of sophistication without overwhelming. For styling, consider pairing it with textured cushions in neutral tones or soft pastels to create contrast against the black leather. It also pairs beautifully with Scandinavian-inspired interiors or urban spaces featuring metal and wood accents. Practical tips include keeping accessories minimal for a chic look and choosing a neutral rug underneath to anchor the sofa while adding comfort and softness underfoot.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
