Our Stylist Says
I love this headboard for its soft, plush velvet finish and versatile dusky pink colour, which adds a touch of sophistication without feeling too bold. It works particularly well in contemporary or feminine interiors, but can also soften more minimalist spaces when styled thoughtfully. To get the most from it, pair with neutral or blush tones in bedding and accessories to create a calming, cohesive look. Practical styling tips include layering with textured cushions and a chunky throw to enhance its cosy appeal. It’s a great piece to anchor a restful bedroom scheme, bringing a subtle pop of colour and tactile luxury.

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.
