Description
A contemporary update on the classic, scroll-arm design, the Townsend purple velvet armchair 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 cushion makes the elegant armchair 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 love this velvet armchair for its bold colour and classic shape, which makes it a versatile statement piece. The rich purple hue works particularly well in both contemporary and traditional interiors, adding a splash of colour without overwhelming the space. It pairs beautifully with neutral tones for a sophisticated look or can be mixed with patterned cushions and throws for a more eclectic vibe. Practical styling tips include placing it near a cosy reading nook with a side table and lamp, or letting it stand out as a focal point in a living room. Its wooden legs add a touch of warmth and natural charm, making it suitable for everything from modern city apartments to more vintage-inspired decors.

In 1964, Sir Terence Conran founded Habitat in London, aiming to bring a fresh European touch to UK home decor.

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.
