A journey into the world of the chair.

Chairs Design

Summary

A designer chair is much more than just a piece of furniture. It is the perfect synthesis of engineering, aesthetics, practicality, and, above all, imagination. You may love a sofa, a bed or a table, but nothing makes your heart churn like the perfect chair. Because, if it is made for perfection, it goes far beyond a refined balance between form and function: it reaches the level of art. And not infrequently it becomes the fulcrum around which everything else revolves.

Practically indispensable

«A table, a chair, a fruit bowl, and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy?» – Albert Einstein

Every room in the house can accommodate a chair, and a well-designed model can enrich your way of experiencing domestic intimacy. For example, an upholstered chair with armrests for the living room offers you pleasant comfort after a long, busy day. An ergonomic chair in the study can help you maintain the correct posture while you work. To accentuate the classic atmosphere of your living room, you can rely on a minimalist wooden chair. And in the bedroom, a Victorian-style seat brings a regal touch.
Choose the design that suits you and express your personality with all your heart!

Let us guide you in choosing the best design chair 2020 with this guide we have prepared for you! We will take you on a journey into the world of chairs, starting with the most popular styles and ending with an overview of different environments in which chairs can be placed.

  • style

As far as design is concerned, we will focus on the most common, classic, and modern ones.

Classic Chairs

Classic chairs have been a hallmark of wealth and luxury for centuries, starting with the Renaissance. And they have always left their mark, influencing many of the styles of later eras. From the straight lines and decorated carvings of the sixteenth century to the neoclassical design typical of the period of Louis XVI to the almost severe simplicity of many nineteenth-century proposals… there is no historical moment that has not been able to make people talk about itself.
The models that have seen the light of day in recent decades, welcoming the legacy of the past, are still at the top of the charts thanks to their timeless design and, in all probability, will never go out of fashion.

Modern Chairs

The modern chair is generally characterized by softer and more minimalist lines than the classic chair. Simple, often bright, and shiny materials are preferred, and colors are often neutral, dark, or plain.

  • room of the house

In the evaluation in relation to the home environment, it should be noted that the choice can be guided more on the basis of functionality and good taste. A “living room chair” can also be perfect for the kitchen and even for outdoors. It is, therefore, better to evaluate the object in the context in which it will be placed and to deviate from the idea that a chair designed for a certain environment cannot “live” in another.

Living room chairs

When it comes to chairs for the living room (or dining room), you shouldn’t sacrifice style for comfort and intimacy. With the wide choice of models on the market, you’re sure to find the right balance between elegance and comfort, regardless of whether your home decor is rustic, modern, or contemporary. After all, why buy something you don’t like just because it allows you to relax?
Often the most beautiful classic living room chairs are also the most comfortable and allow you to curl up with a book, watch your favorite movie or simply spend time talking to friends and neighbors over a drink.

Kitchen Chairs

Choosing chairs for the kitchen is not as easy as it sounds. You have to consider multiple aspects such as upholstery, structure, and lightness: after all, they are likely to be the ones you use (and move) more often. As well as a matter of personal preference, style can’t ignore the space you want to place them in, which, in the kitchen, you know, is never enough.
Keep in mind that even the ideal chairs for the kitchen can have very different prices, which makes the decision even more difficult.

Outdoor Chairs

Outdoor chairs allow you to make your balcony, terrace, or garden more functional. Spending time outdoors with family or friends should be a pleasant experience, so the last thing you want is to buy an uncomfortable and hard chair.

Look for reclining models that are ideal for relaxing outdoors so that you can switch from a sitting to a reclining position depending on what you’re doing. The material not only determines the comfort of the chair but also the level of maintenance required. Because you’ll leave these chairs at the mercy of the weather most of the time, it’s essential that the frame is durable and easy to clean.

Office chairs

If you spend most of the day sitting at your desk, a good office chair is not a luxury but a necessity. Unsuitable and poorly designed office chairs can cause serious damage to posture and general health. Back support is essential, as is a sufficiently wide seat.
The best models can be very expensive and, at least in this case, opting for super-economical ones doesn’t mean saving money: if you want an ergonomic eco-leather chair, you have to be ready to invest a bit.

Children's Chairs

We know it’s not easy to keep the little ones seated for long. They love to move, explore, and switch from one activity to another. Children’s chairs made especially for children can help them relax without necessarily getting bored.
Choose it with a lively and colorful look, perhaps with drawings of their favorite cartoon heroes. Most bedroom chairs lend themselves to a variety of functions, from playing games to studying and even snacking. Don’t forget to focus your attention on ergonomics, to encourage correct posture at such a delicate time as growing up.
