What are the best types of upholstery for swivel living room chairs?
- Leather - Swivel leather chairs come in various styles. Their clean lines and smooth finishes never fail in offering living rooms a sophisticated, luxe feel when they’re matched with modern style furniture. Leather chairs can wear and scuff naturally, adding beauty to their look.
- Fabric - Are you looking for a living room chair that’s casual and colorful? If so, then your best upholstery material option is fabric. A fabric upholstered chair provides a splash of color regardless of the room it’s added into. The upholstery material also offers you with so many options when it comes to patterns and hues.
- Microfiber - If you have children and/or pets, then you’ll need a living room chair that’s extremely low maintenance. An easy-to-clean material is microfiber. The problem with this upholstery material is it doesn’t offer lots of options for the pattern and color. However, you can still choose from a ton of styles plus the added benefit of ease of maintenance.
How to decorate with upholstered swivel living room chairs?
When you’re selecting the best upholstered swivel chair for your living room, consider the mood that you want to create. For a quiet atmosphere, go the opposite direction that you would’ve taken if you were looking for a chair with a retro vibe. Clean lines and less detailing are your best options. If you want carvings or elaborate details, you can still create a serene atmosphere with an all-white swivel chair.
On the other hand, you may want to add a focal point for your living room. If so, then consider the room’s existing theme, as well as what you want your guests to think about your home.
A rule-of-thumb when looking for a chair that will act as the room’s focal point is to give it 10% of the room’s overall color. This means the chair should reflect some design features that are already present in the living room. The purpose of this is to tie your living room’s look together.
A chair that’s a focal point can be thought of as the room’s exclamation point. It should fit in well into the space without looking or appearing out of place. Remember also that there is a fine line that’s right in between demanding attention and capturing it.
Bonus tip: Consider how practical your new chair should be. A swivel chair with an ornate design can look stunning, but if it isn’t comfortable to sit on, it will definitely just be used in your space as a decorative element. In that case, it’s best to be added in your front door where friends and guests remove their shoes.
