Description
The Radius furniture range designed by Simon Pengelly for Habitat has a subtlety and quietness at its core so that pieces can sit alongside furniture of all styles and materials in peoples’ homes. Oak was chosen as it evokes a sense of history, integrity, honesty and familiarity like no other timber. With rounded corners, a smooth finish and visible bridle joints, the pieces feel hand-crafted, suiting every style of living space from traditional cottages to minimal lofts.
