24 September 2025
Buster Bobbin Floor Lamp, £140
Buster Rug – Red, £180
"Following the success of our 60th anniversary collaboration last year, we’re proud to welcome the return of renowned British artist and textile designer Margo Selby to Habitat. This striking new collection continues to celebrate the quality of Margo’s woven techniques and signature printed textiles, featuring geometric motifs and statement colour palettes across textiles, bedding and lighting. Margo’s pieces embrace colour and print and we're so excited to be able to continue to bring Margo’s distinctive design style to customers shopping with us through Habitat, Argos and Sainsbury’s this autumn."
Andrew Tanner, Head of Design at Habitat
Available to shop this October, from as little as £10, the collection includes a range of pieces in the iconic Buster print, which draws inspiration from the three-dimensional ribbed weaving technique known as rep weaving. Paying homage to Margo’s family’s rich textile heritage, the print is named after Margo’s grandfather, Buster - a skilled pattern cutter and partner in an acclaimed Savile Row tailoring house. From bedding and rugs to cushions and even functional lighting options, the Buster collection brings textile artistry into every corner of the home. The Buster Floor Lamp also stands out as a true statement piece, bridging the gap between fabric and sculptural objects.
“My studio team and I are all very proud to be working with Habitat again, a brand that has been leading the way in creating iconic British design-led homewares for over 60 years.
It’s been exciting to see my artwork and authentic, handcrafted designs translated into affordable, well-made pieces that will be accessible to everyone. I’ve particularly enjoyed designing the lighting pieces in this collection, exploring pattern in sculptural form with the Bobbin Lamp and reimagining a yarn cone for the Hibberd Portable lamp.
I’m especially proud of the woven Buster rugs and cushions, created by artisans using looms like those in our studio. Each design is named after family members who have shaped my creative path, from my grannie Janie’s cross-stitch lessons and my grandpa Buster’s tailoring background to my cousin Ned’s graphic design influence."

Other prints across the collection include Heriward, Ned, Leslie and Janie, all of which celebrate Margo’s characteristic flair for colour and joyful pattern.
