(Preface) 'Habitat has changed the way we live, the way we shop and the look of our homes. It started modestly when a bright, modern store opened in the Fulham Road in 1964. Basketware and paper lanterns, kitchenware in primary colours, tiles and rugs - everything from a wooden spoon to a sofa - could be bought under one roof. The goods were displayed in stacks and bunches, traditional butchers' blocks stood alongside ultramodern chairs - and it all had a definite style. The impact of Habitat was immense and in the next twenty years it was to spread throughout Britain and across the world...'
