Caxton magazines staffContributing decor editor Candice Botha rounds up some of the hottest seats around
A statement piece is a must in any room, and often, I favour a rug, artwork or light fitting to perform this function. Lately, however, I have been drawn to using chairs as a focal point. Whether you choose a boldly upholstered wingback or a retro design classic, ultra-modern moulded plastic or buttery leather, there is a chair to suit any decor desire.
Here is some inspiration from the pages of Garden and Home:
Design: Marc Shotland and Quique Sanchez
A sunshine yellow Malawi chair and a fabulous fabric-covered occasional are both standout pieces in this room.
Design: Andrea Kleinloog – Anatomy Design
The retro lines of a charming chair add to the character of this living room.
Design: Charmoon Interiors
This elegant blue pair proves that you don’t need loud patterns and colours to make a statement.
The futuristic look of these chairs contrasts with the old-world kist and draws the eye to the gallery wall without competing with it.
Choosing a design classic like a couple of Eames Lounge chairs is a sure-fire way to elevate a space.
