5 Ways to Style an Occasional Chair in Every Room of Your Home

Occasional chairs aren’t just for extra seating, they’re style statements in their own right. Whether it’s a quiet corner in the bedroom or a bold accent in the living room, here are five easy ways to style one in every room of your home.

Living room: Create a conversation nook

Place a pair of occasional chairs opposite each other to encourage conversation. A contrasting hue like jewel-toned velvet makes a statement without matching everything too closely. Chair 01 complements many styles with its mid-century flair and warm wood tones and plugs right into this style of layout. Simply add a side table, lamp, and cosy throw for that interior designer touch.

Bedroom: Make a quiet corner

Tuck an occasional chair into a bedroom bay window, alcove, or quiet corner to create a reading area. Chair 01’s compact outline offers snug comfort and a relaxed silhouette that’s perfect for chilling out. Layer with cushions and throws to add soft texture to the space.

Home office: Focus and style

Enhance your desk setup with a stylish occasional chair, positioning it as extra seating or as a statement accent piece. The curves of the frame and soft upholstery brings instant personality to corners and makes for a considered Zoom backdrop. Paired with our brand new Desk 01, an occasional chair never misses.

Entryway: Make a statement

Give guests space to pause and take their shoes off with a comfortable occasional chair in your entryway or hallway. Paired with a console table or plant, the sculpted silhouette of an accent chair creates a warm, welcoming vibe without overwhelming the space.

Reading nook: Time to escape

Set up a cosy reading nook by placing your occasional chair in a corner near natural light. Chair 04’s thick cushions and lumbar pillow brings sink-into comfort that’s perfect for curling up in with your current book and favourite mug full of tea. Pair it with a side table and a soft rug to finish off your personal Zen garden.

From entryways to offices, an occasional chair can transform how a space feels and functions. With our versatile selection of occasional chairs, it’s easy to find one that fits your style and your home.
