What are accent chairs and what are they used for?
Accent chairs are more decoratively nuanced than standard seating, and strategically placed, they will accentuate and enliven any chosen living space, be it the lounge, bedroom, study, or any space worthy of lingering. Accent chairs create coherence and impact, from an overlooked corner in a bedroom to a vast space in your lounge area. Your accent chair brings its own unique character and purpose, be it for you to indulge in a cozy reading nook, prepare yourself in a tranquil dressing space, or just a space to simply refuge into reflection near a window.
Frequently asked questions about our accent chairs
How should I choose an accent chair for my living room?
The question is, do you wish for your accent chair to stand out from your subdued furnishings as a bold and dramatic eye-catching statement? Or, in an understated way, gently blend in with your diverse décor and hues.
The interior colour design rule of 60-30-10, (60% being the room dominant colour, 30% a secondary colour, and 10% an accent colour) will help you decide the extent of the visual interest and point of difference your accent chair will play in your living space, from a distinct or to a more discreet tone.
Should accent chairs match my sofa?
Besides contributing additional seating, accent chairs create an aesthetic emphasis by drawing attention to any feature, texture, or tone of the room. The shape, colour, and texture of your accent chair should ideally differ from your sofa to bring its own complementing yet unique allure to the room, enhancing and adding its own panache, especially matched with a stylish Ivory & Deene side table.
How many accent chairs should I have in my living room?
The decorator guide is that a lounge should offer, space permitting, at least four to five-seat options, including at least one sofa and ideally two accent chairs. Accent chairs can match yet ideally differ to bring their unique personality.
How to position and use accent chairs in the living room all depends on your space and lifestyle.
Accent chairs have their distinctive stylishness as part of the collective decor or hold their own elegance in a range of exclusive settings, including:
- Close to a coffee table
- Opposite a sofa or loveseat
- In an empty alcove or at a window
- Perpendicular to a couch
- Alongside the fireplace or a bookshelf
- Paired with a complementing Ivory & Deene ottoman
