55 Modern Lounge Chairs to Chill At Home
Wherever you are in your home, you are going to want to have a spot where you could just relax and take a breather. What better way to achieve this than by placing a lounge chair in the room?
For some great downtime, whether it’s indoors or outdoors, lounge chairs are perfect furniture pieces for this purpose. In addition, the various lounge chairs designs make them perfect pieces to elevate the look of your room or space.
A lounge chair, by its strictest definition, is an armless seat that is permanently in a reclined position, paired with an ottoman. Over time, the design for lounge chairs has evolved. Variations and offshoots of the traditional lounge chair have emerged that don’t fit in with the strictest definition; hence the broadened definition.
Now, with this, there’s a great variety of lounge chairs to choose from. For any home space, modern lounge chairs may be the right fit for their versatility.
How to select a lounge chair
With the many lounge chair designs that have evolved through time, it’s important that you just don’t pick one solely because its appearance is the most appealing to you. The overall look of your room, whether that’s the living room or bedroom, or space still takes priority. Here are some important things to consider in selecting a lounge chair that is a perfect fit!
1. In the case of a living room lounge chair, you must determine the style of your sofa first before you buy a lounge chair. If the living room already has a sofa, the lounge chair should only be a supplement. Your lounge chair should be almost the same height or lower than the sofa. Otherwise, it could create a visual imbalance.
If a lounge chair is taller, the living room has to be spacious enough. Pull the lounge chair far away from the sofa.
2. Consider the shape of your preferred lounge chair that is best suited for its desired function. High backs are good if you want some privacy and are excellent support for the head and neck. More horizontally oriented lounge chairs provide flexibility and more restful lounging.
3. For outdoor lounge chairs, choose easy-to-care ones, minimizing the need for upkeep. Chairs made of metal, teak, cedar, and all-weather wicker pieces are good materials that are unfazed by natural weathering.
4. Take into consideration storage for your outdoor lounge chair and other outdoor furniture. If for example, you have limited storage space, pick a lounge chair that folds or that can be taken apart easily.
5. Choosing the best fabric means picking one that matches the existing tones in the room and with other furniture pieces. Similarly, for outdoor lounge chairs, pick furnishing or fabric with colors that match the colors of your outdoor décor.
Now, let’s take a look at some modern lounge chairs that may be perfect for your home!
