Loaf
Squisharoo Corner Sofa
£4,395
Price History
Description
This cosy corner sofa has just a slightly more upright sit than some of our others. But is still absolutely packed with loads of our signature squish. Sit up and sink in.
Our Stylist Says
The squisharoo corner sofa is a versatile piece that works well in both contemporary and traditional interiors, thanks to its understated design and neutral colour. I love how its plush cushions and cosy profile make it ideal for both lounging and entertaining. To style it effectively, consider adding layered throws and cushions in contrasting textures or colours to create a welcoming, lived-in look. It’s also a good idea to keep the surrounding space relatively simple, letting the sofa be the centrepiece. This piece lends itself particularly well to open-plan living or larger rooms where it can anchor seating zones without overwhelming the space.

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.
