Terence Conran first established Habitat as a furniture shop in 1964, but cheap pasta storage jars became the most popular products in Habitat's original London store after dried pasta became a frequent United Kingdom food staple. Under a decade later, Paris became home to Habitat's first international store, and the company later expanded to Spain and Germany.
Today, Habitat showrooms still have whitewashed brick walls, ceilings of slatted wood, quarry tiled floors, and spotlights shining on their impressive product lines. However, in addition to Habitat's long popular catalogues and showrooms, the company has also maintained a successful online shop since 2009. Habitat discount codes can be used to buy products in all of these formats.
Although Habitat recently became a Home Retail Group subsidiary, its website still operates under the Habitat name and still accepts Habitat discount vouchers as well as telephone orders. Most major debit and credit cards may be used to buy Habitat products.
Website customers can not only order furniture, lighting, or home accessories with a Habitat discount voucher, they can even have sofa fabric samples sent to them before deciding on which fabric and sofa best suits their home. Habitat can also arrange for a reputable third party provider to install delivered furniture upon request.
The care instructions accompanying each piece of Habitat furniture will also soon be available for download on the Habitat website. Most Habitat upholstery fabrics can be washed or professionally cleaned in cold water.
