Description
Sumptuous to sink into and effortlessly stylish, the Orla Kiely Willow medium sofa brings contemporary comfort with a retro feel. Its clean, versatile look is at home in both modern and traditional schemes, complementing a range of colour palettes with its warm and neutral fabrics. Benefitting from foam and fibre filling, high armrests and deep seats, the sofa is pleasantly plump and perfect for lazy lounging. Generous in its proportions, it features a boxy base that is beautifully balanced by slim wooden legs, lifting the sofa up to maximise the space underneath. Finishing the look off fabulously, the Willow comes with two statement scatter cushions in your choice of iconic Orla Kiely prints.

Our Stylist Says
The Orla Kiely Willow Medium is a well-designed piece that works particularly well in both contemporary and eclectic interiors. Its clean lines and approachable size make it a versatile choice for living rooms looking for a pop of colour and personality. I love how it pairs with neutral tones for a fresh, modern look or with patterned cushions and throws for a more layered, curated feel. Practical styling tips include adding contrasting cushions in textured fabrics or vibrant colours to elevate its cheerful yellow tone, and placing it against a neutral wall to let the sofa stand out as a statement piece. Its classic shape also means it won’t date easily, making it a reliable choice for cosy, stylish living spaces.

A Remarkable Journey
Born from the vision of two young RAF men, Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse, Barker and Stonehouse emerged as a beacon of hope, infusing post-war Britain with a hint of glamour. Starting from a single store in Stockton on Tees, their entrepreneurial spirit led to rapid expansion, opening multiple stores across the region.
Their fast growth was fueled not only by their flair for business but also by their dedication to innovation. The business transformed over the years, adapting to the changing landscapes of retail, all while preserving its charm and values. By 2021, they marked an impressive 75 years in the industry, a testament to their enduring commitment to quality and customer service.
Sustainability at the Forefront
From the very start, Barker and Stonehouse has held a deep commitment to the environment. This devotion was showcased through initiatives such as the Trees4Trees Project, a reforestation effort in Indonesia.
Ensuring that for every tree used in their products, more than two were replanted, nearly 1.5 million trees have been restored under this initiative.
Their Knaresborough store, one of the greenest retail stores in the UK, further underscores their dedication to sustainable practices. As a cherry on top, by 2021, the company achieved the status of "Carbon Neutral Plus", making them a trailblazer in the furniture industry.
Innovative Spaces and Expanding Horizons
Over the decades, Barker and Stonehouse didn't just expand in number, but in the quality and innovation of their spaces. From opening their iconic store in Battersea, London, which beautifully preserved the characteristics of an old candle factory, to their latest state-of-the-art Gateshead store in 2023, every location tells a story.
They have also ventured into digital realms, ensuring a vast online presence and offering a wide range of products to customers all over the UK. Their partnerships, like the one with Fenwick in 2021, illustrate their adaptability and constant quest to reach new audiences.
