Brixworth Soft Seating & Booths

UK-crafted sofas, armchairs and privacy booths, with weighted-base coffee tables to sit alongside them. 16 listings from £6. It is the part of an office people actually want to sit in.

They make a room within a room. Upholstered panels absorb speech so a conversation does not carry across an open floor, and the high sides give a sightline break. They are acoustic rather than soundproof, which is an important difference: for genuine confidentiality you need a door and a ceiling.

14 of the 16 listings here are made to order in the fabric and configuration you pick, so allow 10 to 15 working days. It also means those pieces cannot be cancelled or returned once the order is acknowledged, so settle the layout and the fabric before you check out.

For the booths, yes. They are large, heavy and not a one-person flat-pack job, and installation is priced on the page. Check the route from the lorry to the spot as well: a booth that will not go round a corner is an expensive problem to discover on the day.

By hand, against what each product's own specification actually says rather than by a rule that guesses from the name. There are 16 listings in it at the moment, from £6. It is a curated selection rather than an automatic one, so if you think something obvious is missing, tell us and we will look.

Guarantees across this collection run to 10 years, depending on the product and the part, and the figure is on every product page. Structure, mechanism, electrics, and fabric and foam are often covered for different lengths of time. If something fails inside the warranty, report it from your order page and we deal with the manufacturer for you.

Ten of the 16 products in this collection have a 3D model on the page rather than only photographs. The viewer spins the actual model, and changing a colour or a size on the page changes the model with it, which is worth doing before committing a whole room to a finish.

On stocked items, yes: tell us within 14 days of receiving them and raise it from your order page, with the goods unused and back in their packaging. Nine of the 16 products here are made to order, though, and those cannot be cancelled once acknowledged or returned because you have changed your mind. Each product page says which it is before you buy.

Yes. For twenty items or more, or anything with a complication like a mezzanine or a lift that argues back, we plan the job and give you one quote covering the goods, delivery and installation. Ring 0208 138 0512 or email [email protected] with a rough list or a floor plan.
