Powis
With a square sofa proportion is everything, height versus width, arms versus platform facing, depth versus leg length, all of these visual elements need to find harmony, just a small change can make a huge difference. The Powis attains this balance effortlessly with its slender frame looking suitably elegant whether it is a delicate two seater, a chair or a large corner sofa. With its set back oak legs it appears to float before you and when you sit its deep sumptuous cushions offer just the right amount of support and comfort. It has been said that the simple things in life are often the best and that being the case the Powis really is a beautifully simple sofa.

Due to a physical limitation that prevents him from blowing his own trumpet Richard Baker is quite possibly the best furniture designer you’ve never heard of. Born in 1961, the year of the E-Type Jaguar and the son of a renowned English furniture maker, it was obvious from an early age that Richard had a burning desire not to do what his father did. However, after gaining a bunch of 5's in his CSE's, failing to finish box construction at technical college and getting fired from a men’s clothing emporium for wearing the wrong trousers his father decided he needed a course correction and put him to work in his factory sanding an infinite number of chair legs. So enamoured was Richard of his dusty new vocation that he ran away to Australia and thrived as a low achiever, he didn't look back, until he did. Having learnt the wisdom of actors, Richard returned to England and accepted his father's invisible cloak of credibility and so attired wrestled some cash from a hapless bank and with his wife Libby opened Rume, a furniture store with Richard as the creative director, which is a made up title that people without any qualifications use. Coming to terms with his imposter syndrome but not overcoming it Richard was surprised to discover that other people thought he was actually rather good at designing furniture, so he kept doing it and still does.
