Armchairs & Accent Chairs

Armchairs That Suit Your Style

An armchair is the most personal item of furniture in the house. As a single seater chair, an armchair provides solace, comfort and respite. For this reason, choosing the right armchair is an important task. Whether you opt for a recliner, a chaise lounge or an accent chair, your selection will depend on a variety of factors.

Types of Accent Chairs

There are various types of armchairs to choose from. Understanding your seating needs will guide you on the type of chair to select. The most prominent types of armchairs include traditional armchairs, accent chairs, easy chairs, recliners and chaise lounges.

Accent armchairs provide the most style out of all the options. Although they are more compact, they include more of a design feature. Some accent chairs have a wingback or high back design, for example. Accent armchairs can work as a feature item in a living room set, particularly if you choose bright colors like hot pink, lime green or canary yellow.

A chaise lounge is a French creation translated to “long chair”. It is a hybrid chair and bed which allows for reclining, much like the Persian divan, but higher up from the ground level. A chaise lounge is a good option for those who wish to have the option of reclining.

While the chaise lounge is long and static, recliners work on a lever system. This way, you have the option to sit upright, much like a traditional armchair, or recline. Recliners work by either pulling a lever or pressing a button to expose the footrest and lower the back of the seat. Recliners also can be static or come on a swivel.

Another more traditional, yet still very comfortable option, is the easy chair. The easy chair combined the static style of a traditional armchair with the recumbent position of a recliner. Easy chairs are more for relaxation or sleeping than sitting upright and watching TV. Recliners work best with a minimalist Danish design, using muted tones such as gray, beige, brown, blue or even mustard.

If you're looking for fun additional seating, look no further than our swivel chairs that lends flair to your home without taking up much space. A great addition to any American living room or bedroom.

Lounge Chairs and Accent Chairs: Space & style

The most important factors when selecting an armchair are space and style. Some armchairs take up a large amount of space, like plush recliners with high backs and protruding armrests.

Consider other furniture items in your living room like sofas, footstools, ottomans or poufs. Do you have a coffee table, side table or TV console? Will it add to the clutter or supplement the living room set?

You can also use an armchair as a complement to your existing furniture or as a way to add some contrast. It’s best to think about upholstery options too, like leather, velvet, or something completely different like rattan or wooden finishes. Pair colors and materials with existing furniture to create the perfect living room.

FAQ

Can armchairs and accent chairs be reupholstered or refurbished in the future for a refreshed look?

Yes, many armchairs and accent chairs can be reupholstered or refurbished to give them a fresh look. This allows you to update the chair's appearance without having to replace the entire piece, offering flexibility and cost-effectiveness.

What are the design considerations for incorporating accent chairs into a living room or bedroom setup?

Consider the available space, the style of existing furniture, and the desired function of the accent chair. Choose a chair that complements the overall design and provides additional seating or a focal point.

How do I determine the appropriate seating height and depth for optimal comfort?

The seating height and depth should be proportionate to the average height and build of the individuals using the chair. A general guideline is to aim for a seat height of around 18-20 inches and a seat depth of 20-24 inches for comfortable seating.

Can armchairs and accent chairs be mixed and matched for a more eclectic look?

Absolutely! Mixing and matching different styles, materials, or colors can create an eclectic and visually interesting space. Just ensure there is a cohesive element, such as a shared color palette or design theme.

How do I care for and maintain wooden armchairs and accent chairs?

Regularly dust the surface with a soft cloth and use wood polish or oil to maintain its shine and protect it from wear. Avoid placing wooden chairs in direct sunlight or near sources of heat to prevent warping.

What are the advantages of upholstered armchairs and accent chairs?

Upholstered chairs offer comfort, softness, and a wide range of fabric options to suit your taste. They provide a cozy and inviting seating experience while adding texture and visual interest to your space.

How do I choose the right style of armchair or accent chair for my existing decor?

Consider the overall style of your space. For a modern look, opt for sleek lines and minimalist designs, while mid-century chairs add a retro touch. Match the chair's style to your existing decor for a cohesive aesthetic.

Measure the available space and consider the scale of your existing furniture. Ensure the chair's dimensions are proportionate and allow for comfortable seating and easy movement around the room.
