Price History
Description
Hand crafted in Italy, the Smithfield grey luxury leather 2 seater sofa has a sculptural silhouette with feather and fibre filled seat cushions for comfort. Designed by Aaron Probyn for the Habitat Design Reunion project to celebrate our 50th birthday, the range is inspired by classic 60s racing car designs. With rounded, rolled arms and a high back, Smithfield is hand crafted using age-old techniques. Comprising an armchair and 2 sofas, the timeless range complements both traditional and modern schemes and is available in fabric or leather in a choice of colours.
Our Stylist Says
I love this sofa for its sleek, timeless appeal and high-quality grey leather upholstery, which makes it a versatile piece that works well in both contemporary and transitional interiors. Its medium tone allows it to pair effortlessly with a variety of colour schemes - from soft pastels to bold, accent shades. For styling, consider adding textured cushions or throws in contrasting fabrics like velvet or linen to soften its look and enhance comfort. It also works particularly well in open-plan living areas or minimal schemes, where its clean lines can stand out without overwhelming the space. Practical tips include balancing it with a statement rug or artwork to create a cosy, inviting atmosphere, and accentuating its understated elegance with minimalist metallic or wooden accessories.

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.
