The armchair is synonymous with comfort and relaxation, as well as style and customization. Here are 5 useful tips for choosing the right model for you:
Decide where it will be placed: will it be part of an upholstered furniture arrangement or will it occupy a part of the living room alone and simply be accompanied by a coffee table to create a reading nook? Is the idea instead to use it in the bedroom or the child's room, or perhaps in the study? Will it be placed in front of the TV? Before purchasing, focusing on the positioning of the seat is necessary to identify the most suitable model. suitable.
Consider the space available: if it is large, you can easily opt for a rather bulky armchair, equipped with armrests and—why not?—a reclining backrest. But if the surface area is not very large, you should favor the more basic models. We suggest arming yourself with a tape measure, paper, and pencil and precisely measuring the space you will allocate for the product itself.
Be practical in choice of materials: in this case too, the choice is linked to both personal taste and practicality. If pets live in the home, for example, leather armchairs should be avoided. If you have small children, it's best to choose models with removable, washable fabric covers.
It's also essential to ensure that the product harmoniously integrates into the surrounding environment. This can mean two things: looking for one that stylistically and chromatically complements the other furnishing elements, or creating a strategic contrast, even if only in terms of color.
If the modern armchairs and sofas belong to the same collections, the problem of matching doesn't arise. The alternative is to choose living room armchairs and sofas from different collections, but within the same same style, for a more dynamic and personalized ensemble.
If desired, the shades can also be different, as long as they match well. The burgundy model, for example, can be paired with a dove gray sofa, but not with a sofa with light blue upholstery.
Alternatively, the common thread between sofa and armchairs can be color, and you can take greater stylistic freedom, but it's best to avoid excesses, that is, those differences that threaten to appear abysmal. Another recommendation for everyone: be careful to respect the proportions.
There are different types of armchairs, it's true, but it's undoubtedly useful to list the main ones:
Chesterfield: the classic leather armchair with buttons, a low seat, and armrests and a backrest at the same height. Bergére: its unmistakable feature is the high backrest with "ears."
As for modern models, it should first be noted that very often tradition is the main inspirational muse, the starting point for ad hoc reinterpretations. For those who don't have much space, there are easily placed armchair models, capable of personalising and characterising the environment with their design or the quality materials from which they are made. You'll find everything in the product data sheet.
