Occasional Chairs

What are occasional chairs?

In any home that’s designed to be aesthetically pleasing, there will be features that are meant to be displayed and not intended for regular use. Occasional chairs are one of these features. 

 

Although you or your guests can definitely sit on them without worry, Occasional chairs, also known as accent chairs, are meant to complement the other design elements of the space. 

 

How can you choose the right occasional chair for your space?

Whether you’re looking for a statement piece to stand out from the rest of the furniture or ornate seating that can fill up an empty corner that nobody uses, choosing the right occasional chair can help you achieve whatever design goal you have for your space. 

 

Here are some of the considerations to make when choosing the right occasional chair for your space:

 

• Your main design goals 

Having a streamlined vision of how you want your space to look can easily inform your decision with regard to occasional chairs. Whether you’re looking to create a more modern space or would like a more classical environment, knowing your main design goals will allow you to easily choose occasional chairs that match that aesthetic. 

 

• The colour and fabric 

The accent or occasional chairs you select should be in harmony with the overall colour scheme of your home. The fabric of the chairs also needs to be comfortable while still in-keeping texturally with the entire theme. 

 

• The size, quantity, and placement

This depends on how much space you’d like to cover and how much attention you’d like the chairs to get. Empty corners and blank walls are great places to put occasional chairs against. You can use one placed between a standing lamp and a bookshelf to create a little reading nook or use two in order to flank both sides of a small table or artwork. Let your imagination run wild and don’t be afraid to experiment a little.
