Finding the ideal classic chairs and designing it might be difficult with so many options available for living room layouts. Even on its own, a stunning accent chair can make a statement.

Alternatively, it can combine the room’s components. Or it can fill in a blank with a new texture or pattern. Accent chairs in living rooms give spaces a strong feel. Here, we at Swivel UK London examine each form and offer decorating suggestions for living room accent chairs to enhance your sense of style.

Types of Living Room Accent Chairs

Understanding the many sorts of accent chairs and common locations for them will be helpful to you in the beginning.

Wishbone Chair

The Hans Wegner Y-Chair, often known as the “Wishbone Chair” due to its back curvature. It is a compact piece of modern designer furniture and an armchair that is lightweight. The graceful Y-back is enhanced by the curving top rail and the arched hind legs.

The Wishbone chair looks magnificent in any room and exudes an impression of grace and hospitality. Since their establishment in 2006, Swivel UK has been selling the chair.There are 12 finishes and 2 cord colours for the chair. We faithfully recreate our products in the original design’s aesthetic.

Wingback chair

This large-scale (but not necessarily) armchair has a high back and protective “wings” that enclose the user.

In the past, these chairs’ wings served to keep out chilly draughts beside the fire. Wing chairs have a striking form and are ideal for reading or having a discussion close to a wide sofa.

Slipper chair

The slipper chair is a small, armless chair with a lower seat that is sized for smaller spaces and is frequently used in beds, small spaces, or other places where less visible weight is required.

Club chair

The club chair is a large, deep-seated chair made of leather or fabric. In general, this chair is comfortable for naps. The stuffy men’s clubs where the moniker originated are far removed from the contemporary variants of this living room accent chair.

Swivel chair

Swivel-base chairs are ideal for offices, nurseries, and other settings where you require flexibility for varied conversation setups. These cosy seats come in a variety of designs, including the Maxwell Chair’s barrel design.

Elbow Dining Chair

Wegner’s distinctive mastery of wood and his innate predilection for simplicity, traits common to all of his designs, are embodied in the understated yet stylish Elbow Bar Stool.

Each of his numerous creations has a distinct personality, but they all have a common language and high level of design. We faithfully recreate our products in the original design’s aesthetic.

Living Room Accent Chair Ideas

Our stylists add some colour and vitality with plants and flowers when arranging accent chair furniture for living spaces.

A little greenery is almost always a good idea! We also favour cushions and throws because they offer texture, comfort, and charm to accent chairs like jewellery.

As you can see from the Maxwell Chair samples, adding the correct texture, pattern, or amusing tassel detail can really make the chair stand out.

These additional components can be added to the mix when arranging a Maxwell Chair or any other accent chair furniture to finish the room’s appearance.

  • An accent table
  • A floor lamp or table lamp
  • A large vase or carboy
  • An interesting rug
  • An ottoman
  • A basket of books
  • Art or a mirror

The Maxwell Chair: One Chair Six Ways

Bassett’s Maxwell Chair is a traditional barrel accent chair that demonstrates its adaptability to highlight six very different accent chair concepts for living rooms.

Cool and Easy

Modern elegance is quietly created with cool taupe velvet. A casual edge is added by nailhead trim. The peaceful and fashionable appearance is enhanced by the accent table’s curved, thin legs and the rug’s neutral colour scheme.

Fabric Pattern

With an open side table, light-colored highlights in the lamp and rug, and a whitewashed brick wall, a tribal design fits in perfectly. The dark neutral chair fabric gives this room weight and contributes to its distinctly contemporary appearance.

Casual Throw

A throw that is carelessly draped provides a simple touch of flair. The warm orange fabric of the chair is enhanced by the comforting texture of the throw.

The Jewel

The cloth itself is sufficient in some cases. Teal velvet in a rich ruby tone with nailhead detailing delivers the ideal amount of unpretentious sophistication.

The classic velvet is elegant yet comfy when paired with an updated sunburst mirror and a slender-legged accent table in a stylish champagne metal finish.

Pillow Power

Bring in a cheery tasselled throw pillow for some fun to give your home some individuality. This quick makeover makes the space cosier and friendlier.

In Good Shape

The chair’s contours are similar to those of a round cocktail table. A big throw plays up the soft appearance of the chair’s wide weave fabric while adding texture and contrast.

Investigating living room accent chair ideas can be a wonderful place to start if you’re searching for a way to define the space or add a little flair.
