Price History
Description
Puffed up like a pillow, then soft in the middle. Just like one of our favourite dishes. With its rounded corners and squidgy feel, this tasty sofa is blinkin' comfy.
Our Stylist Says
I really like the soufflé sofa for its classic yet versatile design, making it adaptable to both contemporary and traditional interiors. Its soft, rounded arms and understated silhouette create a welcoming, relaxed feel that works well in casual family rooms or cosy sitting areas. For styling, pairing it with textured cushions and neutral or pastel tones can enhance its inviting character. It also pairs effortlessly with a variety of finishes, from wood floors to layered rugs, making it a flexible choice for different space types. Practical tips include keeping accessories minimal to maintain its clean look or adding throws for extra comfort and colour. Overall, it’s a practical yet stylish piece that centres well in many interior settings.

About Loaf
From Beds to Diverse Furniture
Loaf is a popular British furniture store that started as "The Sleep Room" by Charlie Marshall in 2008. Charlie used money from selling his old business and his savings to start it.
At first, they just sold beds, with Charlie researching 187 mattress and bed factories to ensure only the best products. But by 2012, they began selling other furniture like sofas, chairs, and lights, which led to its rebranding as "Loaf."
Their growth was so impressive that by 2013, they ranked 40th on the Sunday Times Fast Track 100, becoming the 3rd fastest growing retailer in the UK.
Sustainability and Ethical Approach
Loaf's commitment to the environment and ethical practices is evident in their efforts to ensure sustainable sourcing. They aim for all their materials to be responsibly sourced or derived from recycled materials by 2025.
For instance, the timber in their sofa frames comes from responsibly managed forests. Additionally, they're working towards reducing their carbon emissions, improving packaging to be 100% recyclable, and respecting animal welfare.
Notably, their wool will be certified to the Responsible Wool Standard by 2023. Loaf also ensures that all their employees, or 'Loafers,' are paid at least the 'real' Living Wage.
Locations and Community Engagement
Presently, Loaf boasts ten showrooms, uniquely referred to as 'slowrooms,' mainly around London. Beyond just business, they're active in community engagement.
They have partnered with St Mungo's, a leading UK charity, aiming to spend 10,000 hours over the next three years volunteering and raising funds to combat homelessness.
