Accent Chairs

As the name suggests, accent chairs not only provide secondary seating in your room, they are meant to complement the color tone and texture of wall paint and other larger furniture pieces. While a bright color or pattern might be too overwhelming for the sofa or wall coverings, using it on an accent chair can add style and personality to your room. In a room decorated in black, white, and gray, for example, a bright red chair stands out and makes a dramatic statement. There are many different types of accent chairs available, from club chairs to wing chairs to slipper chairs, and each design brings a different look and feel to your room.

Put the Accent on Style

Accent chairs are a great way to add style to your room when the rest of your furniture is feeling a little stale. If you go with patterned upholstery, look for a design that includes colors from the rest of your furniture. This will tie the new chair to the rest of your décor. Take the opportunity to introduce new colors as well, and add a decorative pillow to the couch that reflects these new shades. Most designers recommend focusing on two or three main colors and a few additional accent tones or your room can end up looking cluttered and unfocused.

Today, contemporary accent chairs are making a comeback, with newer and more stylish chairs replacing some older chairs in living rooms. Accent chairs with arms are especially attractive in your living room, and some older chairs, which are not as contemporary in styling, may have been passed down from previous generations of some families. These chairs will give you a relaxing place to crash after a hard day, and also a comfortable chair to sit in while you catch the news on TV, or watch your children play in the living or family room.

 Since you probably have TV's in many more rooms than just the living room today, it's not unusual to see living room chairs being used in family rooms or dens. They are even used in bedrooms, where space allows, and they make excellent reading chairs. Some accent chairs may also be found in hallways, inviting tired family members or guests to relax for a bit. 

Having an extra chair in your bedroom is handy for sitting down to put on your shoes and socks in the morning before work, and contemporary accent chairs can be found in bedrooms, too. These extra accent chairs can be stored away until they are needed for larger groups of family and friends visiting, too. They are very versatile, and are more often seen in homes today. 

Shop locally or online for living room chairs, and you'll find a wide selection of styles and fabric colors. These chairs are a relaxing place to sit in your living room, and they provide an excellent place to visit with guests or read a book. Finding the perfect chair may take a bit of time, since there are so many options available to you. You can find them for sale alongside recliners, club chairs and rocking chairs. 

There are few more elegant furnishings than leather contemporary accent chairs, and they have comfort and a timeless style that you'll love. These chairs are durable, as long as you care for your leather chairs properly. Cleaning them periodically will help keep them looking great. As with any chairs, fabric or leather chairs should have spills cleaned up right away, so they don't stain. Fabric chairs are numerous, and can be as elegant as leather chairs, if their upholstery is of a high quality.

 As with any new furnishings, make sure you have measured the space you have available, so that you find a chair that will fit well in your room. Check the dimensions of the contemporary accent chairs you are looking at, to ensure they will work comfortably in your room, and think about purchasing ottomans or foot stools to go with new living room chairs you may buy.
