Description
A contemporary update on a classic design, the Townsend natural woven stripe linen 2 seater sofa has a T-cushion seat and a welcoming, open shape. Taller legs at the front and a reclined, padded back encourage relaxation, while the generously proportioned, feather-topped seat cushions make the elegant sofa incredibly comfortable. Handmade to order in Italy, Townsend is available in a variety of shapes and sizes and a wide choice of fabrics and colours.
Our Stylist Says
I really like this one for its timeless, understated style. The stripes on the sofa bring subtle visual interest without overwhelming the space, making it versatile for both contemporary and traditional interiors. It works particularly well in neutral, calm colour schemes, or layered with bold accessories for a more eclectic look. Practical styling tips include adding textured cushions in contrasting fabrics or colours to introduce depth, and cosy throws for a lived-in feel. Its neutral linen stripe fabric pairs beautifully with natural materials like wood and rattan, helping to create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Overall, this sofa is a reliable choice that adapts well to various interior styles while offering comfort and style.

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.
