Halo - We are a world leading luxury furniture & lifestyle group Established in 1976 in the United Kingdom by Major Philip Oulton, Halo started as an antiques shop. After leaving school, his 2 sons came to work in the business, building a strong presence in the furniture market. The Halo group has since grown to become a world leader in luxury furniture, servicing the global market with exquisite, handcrafted collections. Renowned for designing innovative furniture, and with a global reach, extensive product ranges and a multi-channel distribution network, Halo has been consistently evolving and expanding across new categories and markets, collaborating with artisans and designers of international recognition.

In 2022, Tim’s son Oli has taken the reins as Creative Director and Co-CEO to continue Tim’ s legacy in furniture design and retail.
