Interior design: Chairs as decor statement
When discussing about home decor, we hardly take chairs into consideration. Chairs are not merely seating space in your home; rather they can be an elegant element for decorating the house. Furniture should be chosen according to your personality and traits. Chairs can be a handy part in showcasing a decor statement apart from being your seat for comfort.
Right type of chairs offer you the choice to design an area as per your wish. There are a myriad of options from which you can from – arm chairs, recliners, love seats, day beds, rocking chairs, dining chairs, mosaic chairs, etc. They come in all styles and forms – contemporary or modern or classic. The onus is to choose the appropriate one to reflect your persona.
Decide upon the material and colour of the chair carefully rather than going for something that catches your eye. There are a few things you should keep in mind before deciding what kind of chair to opt for. Take into consideration the room’s size, decor theme and colour of the wall. Also, see to it that the chair is comfortable for seating and the material is sustainable.
When it comes to material, cotton, polyester and linen are good options as they are sustainable. Luxurious suede, velvet and damasks and Italian leather are in vogue. The materials come in variety of designs – animal prints, abstract, floral and so on from which you can choose.
What colour do you choose for a chair entirely depends upon you. Chair becomes a part of interior decor and according to the colour of your wall and flooring you may choose either neutral or soft shades or go for bright colours. If you are thinking of chairs for outside lounge area, then bright colours are suitable.
The lounge area is the space for entertainment and relaxation and it is where you are most likely to place the chair. You can have a special lounge room to relax or as it has become very much difficult to own a spacious home in recent times, you can get a lounge chair for the purpose of relaxation or watching television or reading a book. Lounge chairs occupy as much space as a sofa and can provide a luxurious reclining.
Type of chairs depend on personal choices and the age of the family members. Rocking chairs is a favourite among all the age group – from a toddler to an old lady. If you have issues related to back aches then rocking chairs are the most suitable seats for relaxation.
Recliners are what is chosen by almost all for relaxing. Massage chairs are a favourite and they come with distinct design and style. Chaise lounges come in many designs and they are one of the most preferred due to the comfort level they provide. Chaise lounges are stylish and elegant and they create an excellent nook for reading or listening.
Among modern decor trends, mosaic chairs seem to take the spotlight. Mosaic chairs lend a touch of royalty and reflect contemporary lifestyle with a touch of aesthetics. Whatever may be your choice, you need to remember that chairs are an elegant part of decorating a room and the chair should match the decor and elevate it to a new level.
