Chaises
If you’re in need of stylish yet comfortable seating in your living room or den, chaises make an ideal solution. They bring a bit of curve into an otherwise straight room while remaining close to the floor so as not to impede sightlines or take up too much space in smaller spaces without enough room for sofas and loveseats.
Your average modern consumer might hear “chaise lounge” used as an umbrella term, but chaise is actually an iconic seating design that dates back centuries. Pronounced “shayz long,” its translation into French means “long chair.” In English it may also be known as a lounge chair or fainting chair.
Modern chaises span a broad array of styles from traditional to contemporary. Some feature luxurious leather upholstery while others utilize fabrics with different colors and patterns for upholstery. Wood frames like the England Living Room Collegedale Floating Ottoman Chaise *Sofa Sold Separately* highlight natural grain of kiln-dried teak while models such as Tom Dixon Bird Chaise boast more sculptural forms resembling art installations than sitting chairs.
No matter their style or design, chaise lounges provide comfort and versatility. Ideal for reading, lounging and napping; accent pieces for larger sofas; some even use them in bedrooms or boudoirs as an alternative to regular armchairs and ottomans!
Chaises are easy to care for and maintain, too. Simply dust it off with a soft cloth or vacuum it using the brush attachment, or slip on removable fabric covers that are machine washable if left outdoors in direct sunlight. For optimal use outdoors in direct sun exposure, be sure to cover them with an umbrella so as to prevent overheating, keeping guests cool while they lounge on it comfortably. Similarly, an outdoor rug could add additional protection from weather elements.
Daybeds
A daybed can be an ideal piece of furniture for children’s bedrooms, cozy dens and guest rooms alike. As it doubles up as both sofa and bed during the daytime and sleep space come evening, daybeds maximize space while adding to home decor. Upholstered daybeds range from contemporary to traditional styles for optimal home decor integration; plus many come equipped with an optional trundle to accommodate overnight guests when necessary.
Daybeds are typically smaller than traditional sofas, making them an excellent option for studio apartments and homes with limited space. Daybeds also make an excellent spot to curl up with your latest beach read or an afternoon book; simply adding throw pillows and blankets can quickly transform it into an inviting reading nook! Seasonal accents such as chunky knit blankets in fall, thermal blankets during winter or woven blankets for spring can add visual variety as you layer woven blankets over top for added texture.
To create the ultimate lounging area, incorporate floor cushions or an ottoman. Decorating it with some stylish objects such as vases or picture frames will bring out its full potential as a living room centerpiece. Or turn your daybed into a workspace by attaching a desk or table.
Modern daybeds are one of the most sought-after forms of daybed, featuring an upholstered seat and low sides (where arms would typically appear on chairs). Furthermore, some models can even be freestanding without needing to attach to walls; others use metal or wood for an upscale aesthetic.
Daybeds are often used as an attractive, relaxing spot during the day and then transform into inviting beds at night, providing an effective solution for small homes or apartments with limited space and full-sized beds may be too bulky. Furthermore, they’re an excellent addition to children’s bedrooms where they serve double duty as both social gathering spots during socialization periods as well as an inviting place to sleep overnight!
Dining Sets
Dining sets remain some of the most sought-after outdoor furniture options sold annually. With so many styles available to you, there’s sure to be one perfect for both your space and taste! To narrow your choices further, consider your desired aesthetic for your dining area: for a traditional yet elegant feel consider wood table and chairs while modernists may prefer glass or metal tables with simple chairs as options.
Consider how often you entertain, as this will influence the size and style of table and chairs needed. If you like hosting large family gatherings, a dining set that seats more people may be necessary; conversely if dining alone with only close family or friends may suffice. Once you’ve determined both size and style for your ideal dining set, selecting a color scheme that complements that of your dining room walls can make your set seem less out-of-place.
Upholstered Chairs
Upholstered chairs provide the ultimate luxury. Available in various shapes, sizes and colors with materials ranging from leather, fabric or vinyl construction, you can find traditional as well as contemporary styles when purchasing these chairs. When shopping for these upholstered pieces make sure they measure up against your dining table height before purchasing any chairs to ensure they will fit properly.
Second-hand upholstered furniture adds character and can make for stylish yet comfortable pieces of furniture. Once found at garage sales, auctions or estate sales, once transformed it can become stylish yet comfortable piece. To maintain its appearance and keep it looking its best you should regularly vacuum and wipe clean with a dry cloth; in case it gets wet immediately dry it immediately using baking soda as a dry cleaning agent for upholstery furniture.
If you plan on selecting second-hand upholstered furniture for your living room, be sure to select neutral-colored fabrics that blend well with the rest of the decor. Avoid bold patterns or colors as these could detract from comfort of the chair. Furthermore, purchase furniture of appropriate sizes for your living space so it becomes easier to get in and out of it when moving around the room or getting into and out of chairs.
Back and arm support of upholstered furniture is provided by webbing, which is a strong yet closely-woven fabric. Jute and cotton herringbone weave webbing is one of the most common upholstery webbing types; other options include polypropylene which is stronger but less expensive compared to its competitors, and frequently found on outdoor pieces due to being weatherproof.
Customised upholstered chairs not only add style and practicality to lounge areas and lobbies, but can also serve as seating solutions. At GO IN we provide seating solutions that are both functional and comfortable – and can be produced quickly! Additionally, your furnishing partner will send material samples so that you can test out feel and colour of fabrics prior to production.
