If you follow home décor trends, you have probably heard of accent chairs. An accent chair is a single seat that provides additional seating and creates an eye-catching focal point either by adding a pop of colour or an interesting design. It has become a popular addition to the home since it fits in well and offers both function and style.

Despite its popularity, choosing the right accent chair for your space can be challenging since there are a variety of styles, sizes, materials, and designs. However, it’s important to choose the right one since it makes a huge difference in the way your space looks. The wrong accent chair can throw everything off. Here’s a guide to help you choose the right accent chair for any space.

Match Your Current Décor

Since an accent chair is a huge piece, it will be one of the first things people notice when they enter your space. Therefore, it should match the décor in your space for it to blend in well. Consider the design and feel of the room before settling for a particular style. For a modern space, go for a modern-looking chair. Similarly, if your décor has curved edges, then you should choose a chair with curved edges as well.

Find The Right Size

This is one of the most important factors to consider when choosing an accent chair. This is because if you choose a chair that is too big, it will make your space look crowded. Additionally, if the accent chair is too small, it will look out of place. Measure your space and the spot where you want to put the chair to avoid disappointment.

Choose The Right Colour

The main purpose of an accent chair is to add a stylish touch to your space. Therefore, it should stand out from the rest of your furniture while matching the interior. To make the accent chair stand out, choose bright colours that go well with the rest of your furniture. For instance, if you have a beige couch, pick warm colours such as navy, burgundy, dark green or even black or brown. You can also have one colour for all your furniture if prefer to have a streamlined look.

Choose The Right Placement

Accent chairs can be placed almost anywhere in the room. They fill up empty spaces, create division and provide a seating area near your favourite spots in the room such as by a bookshelf, or a window. Check your space to decide where you want to place your accent chair and what purpose you want it to serve. For example, an accent chair in your entrance sets the mood for your entire home. It’s, therefore, essential to choose carefully.

Consider The Comfort

Accent chairs come in all shapes and sizes. It’s up to you to choose one that will suit your taste while offering comfort. Even though it’s not often used, accent chairs need to be comfortable as well. After all, it’s a chair and chances are someone will want to sit on it. It is never good when a chair looks stunning only to feel awful to sit on. So, keep the material and shape in mind when choosing one since they have a huge impact on the chair’s comfort levels.

Lean Into Your Layout

Your layout should have a flow. Therefore, you need to consider this and then decide on which and how many accent chairs you should add. Generally, your couch should be on the same level as your accent chair for easy visual and conversational flow. you should also have enough walkways between your chair and other furniture. If you keep these rules in mind, you’ll be able to find the perfect accent chair for your space that will not only add a decorative aspect but also a functional one.
