We believe that homes should be as original as the people living inside. Contemporary design isn’t just about staying ahead of the curve. We’re just as dedicated to making responsible choices; harnessing more sustainable materials and championing the latest practices and innovations. We believe that original design comes down to getting every detail just right. The placement of seams, the precise angle of an armrest, the texture of a fabric – none of it escapes our attention. Alongside our talented in-house team, we collaborate with independent designers and makers to create statements. And that’s not limited to our products. We’re committed to pushing boundaries and challenging convention in everything we do – from our furniture, to our events and installations.

Eight years ago, Wahanda began a journey with a dream to give customers a better way to book their hair, beauty and spa services. However, the Wahanda group were using five different consumer brand names across 10 countries. We decided the time had come to unite under one brand name. We chose Treatwell because it captures the spirit that has always been at the heart of what we do, the belief that beauty was for everyone. On January 18th 2016, Wahanda changed its name to Treatwell. https://www.treatwell.com/ Treatwell, formerly called Wahanda, is the largest hair and beauty bookings website in Europe. We’re an eclectic group of 500 people working in offices throughout Europe, with over 20,000 local partners. It amounts to a​n around-the-clock beauty bookings platform that puts customers and salon managers in control​. It l​ets you book at times and prices that suit you and gives you all the style know-how you need to look and feel amazing.​ Salons have a platform to market their businesses and fill ​their ​quieter times​ using​ Treatwell's ​bespoke salon management software. We're more than a smarter booking platform. We're the place where you can express yourself, every day. Follow us on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/company/treatwell-com/
