Armchair in the bedroom interior
The design of the bedroom is not only a comfortable berth and a spacious storage system for the wardrobe. In order to make the atmosphere of the room truly comfortable, ready to meet any needs of the owners, you need a little more. For example, the armchairs popular at all times, installed in the bedroom interior to increase the level of comfort, again become mainstream. You can organize a comfortable reading corner with the help of one small but comfortable chair, and a couple of identical pieces of furniture with soft upholstery are enough to organize a place for a coffee break. At the same time, the chair can be difficult to additional furniture, and an accent in the interior of the bedroom or an element that emphasizes the stylistic identity of the design. Only one piece of furniture can radically change the nature of the room. We suggest that you familiarize yourself with our selection of design projects for sleeping spaces, in the interior of which there is one or more armchairs and make sure that this piece of furniture is simply necessary in your bedroom.
Criteria for choosing a bedroom chair
Before you go to the store or on the Internet in search of a suitable chair, it is important to at least approximately represent a model that will meet your interests. If you do not make mental screenings according to some criteria, then in the assortment of modern furniture stores you can just get confused. So, before buying, answer the following questions:
- how the chair (or couple) will be used, whether you plan to read during the day or at bedtime, or maybe you need to be next to the bedside of a sick person (an elderly person who spends a lot of time in bed), or you will rock a child sitting in a chair;
- Would you like to make the chair an accent element of the interior or should it merge with the overall picture of the design of the bedroom;
- whether the chair will be made in the same style with the interior of the sleeping space or will it become a distinctive piece of furniture in style, but we agree on the color scheme;
- how much free space of the room are you ready to allocate for the installation of the chair;
- the age and lifestyle of the owners will affect the choice of chair model in height (the lower the chair, the more difficult it is to get out without assistance).
Armchair - an accent element of the interior
There are many popular models of chairs, comfort, ease of use and attractive appearance which for many years has been proven around the world. If you are indecisive about the choice of a specific model of a bedroom chair, then you can turn to design models that have passed the test of strength, aesthetics and ergonomics. For example, the legendary Barcelona chair, created by the German modernist architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, looks relevant today, despite the fact that it was invented in 1929. The comfortable and practical design of the chair with a chrome steel frame and soft fabric or leather upholstery will decorate your bedroom.
Another no less popular chair, which Danish designer Emil Arne Jacobsen designed especially for the halls of large hotels, got its name for its resemblance to an egg shell - Egg. The chair has fabric or leather upholstery and very often is executed in bright color. It will be convenient for you to relax, read and even take a nap in this “egg shell”. A bright and original design will provide your bedroom with notes of creativity, design ideas with a practical background.
A truly legendary armchair of the 20th century can be considered the work of the Finnish designer Eero Aarnio - Bubble Chair. The transparent “soap bubble” is made of high-strength acrylic and can withstand a load of up to 120 kilograms.A person located in a suspended chair is reliably and conveniently located inside, but he can see what is happening around him. Measuring wiggle and comfortable posture of the “embryo” will allow you to relax and rest or tune in to reading your favorite work.
Acrylic "bubble" may not be suspended from the ceiling, but mounted on a support. Such a chair can rotate. Some models are made of opaque acrylic or durable plastic. In such a chair you are safely hidden from prying eyes, but you yourself will not be able to see what is happening from the side. But, as a rule, such models have soft upholstery over the entire inner surface of the ball.
One of the options for the execution of a hanging chair is a wicker model that looks organically in a bedroom decorated in a modern style, country, beach or tropical style. Among the obvious advantages of suspended models can be noted that they practically do not occupy the useful space of the room and the owners have the opportunity to relax in them, swaying gradually. But there are also drawbacks to such models - not every ceiling is ready to accept quite a serious mount. For rooms with suspended ceilings, suspended structures are taboo.
Using a chair is the easiest way to bring emphasis to the sleek design of the bedroom. Among monophonic planes in pastel colors, it is a bright armchair that can become the center of attraction of all glances. It can be a plain bright upholstery or a colorful print, the original texture is a fur cover, for example.
A classic and even baroque armchair will accent look in a bedroom decorated in a modern style. Against the background of simple and concise decisions of decoration and furnishing, a little pretentiousness will not hurt - the character of the room will become more original, creative. But if you choose a cardinally opposite to the design of the room according to the style of the chair, it should at least coincide with the color palette of the interior, not contradict it.
The so-called “long chair” or Long Chair is a complex of the actual chair and footrest for it. In fact, the stand is a small pouf upholstered in the same fabric as the main piece of furniture. In a chair with a stand, you can stretch your legs after a hard day's work. Settle with maximum comfort. The convenience of using such an ensemble is that the ottoman can be used separately - as a seat or as an attribute for a dressing table.
But the model can be lengthened by itself, without an additional stand. This design is suitable for people who need to be able to stretch their legs, feel their support. Whether it is necessary for a comfortable placement in front of a TV, a fireplace or a magnificent landscape on horseback - it does not matter, the main thing is that an elongated chair can give you a high level of comfort. But the space for installing a pair of such chairs will be required at times more than when using mini-models.
Compact chair or comfortable chair
Recently, the most popular have become compact models of chairs, which at first glance can even be called very comfortable chairs with soft upholstery. The popularity of mini-chairs is easily explained by the lack of large spaces in modern Russian apartments, but the desire of the owners to equip their home with maximum comfort. A compact chair can be put on the dressing table or used as an attribute of the workplace. Whether you will do a hairstyle, apply makeup or work at the computer - a comfortable and at the same time miniature chair will become an indispensable attribute for you.
A computer chair is a private attribute for many Russian bedrooms. Often, there is no other option for arranging a workplace other than installing a table or console for a computer in a sleeping space. In some cases, a desk or computer desk is also a dressing table. In any case, the organization of a comfortable and ergonomic chair set to it is necessary.Depending on how much time you spend at your desk, the chair should be able to adjust the seat and backrest in height, backrest, armrests and head restraints. If the workplace is used sporadically, then a simple adjustment of the model in height will be sufficient.
The original couple or chairs in the bedroom relaxation area
In order to organize a relaxation area in the bedroom, a couple of small armchairs, a coffee (coffee) table and a local light source are enough (in a room with panoramic windows you can do without it). Most often, such chairs are installed at the foot of the bed. But it all depends on the volume and layout of the room.
If there is a bay window in your bedroom, then it would be unforgivable not to organize a sitting area with coffee in comfortable easy chairs. Whatever the shape of the bay window, picking up the right seats will not be difficult. The furniture market is full of models of various sizes and configurations. You just need to make the right choice of color and texture.
The upholstery of the chairs in the color of the curtains or even from a similar material is a well-known design technique that helps create a harmonious picture of the bedroom. The main thing in this case is not to overdo it with the print. If there is a bright, colorful pattern on upholstered furniture and in the drapery of window openings, then the room risks losing its personality. It is important not to forget that in the interior of the bedroom, the bed remains the main subject of furniture.
Leather upholstery is not without reason one of the most practical. But not every bedroom interior can organically “accept” natural or artificial leather. Nevertheless, armchairs with leather upholstery are the prerogative of the interior of the living room. In the bedroom, such models will look organic if light colors were chosen for leather upholstery. Or the interior itself is designed in an original style - country, eclecticism, avant-garde.
If you have difficulty with the selection of colors for upholstered furniture, then there are many universal colors that will organically look in any interior. All shades of white and almost all gray can be safely considered neutral. Armchairs with such upholstery will not catch the eye, will not become accents, but not every bedroom design is necessary. A neutral choice of colors for upholstery in the bedroom can also include a light beige palette of shades.
The so-called corner chairs look original. Models based on a square, as a form for the frame, take up little space in the room, but at the same time give no less comfort than their counterparts in a standard form. If desired, such chairs can be installed in the corners of the room, where they will most effectively use the useful space of the room.
Wicker chairs (partially or fully) - the choice is not for every bedroom. Country-style, beach, tropical, Mediterranean style perfectly take into their images furniture, a bit like a garden. The original appearance and environmental safety will benefit any interior.
The latest trend in the design of living spaces in a modern style is the use of furniture, which not so long ago could be called exclusively office. Furniture items that are used in hotels, bars and restaurants undergo minor changes (or even do without them) and become an integral part of the images of modern bedrooms.
The choice of originals - frameless chairs of various modifications. A distinctive feature of the bag chair is the lack of a rigid frame and the ability to take the shape of the body of a person who plunges into this same chair. For everyone who has problems with the health of the spine, pregnant and lactating, just the owners of apartments and houses with children, a chair-bag can be an excellent option for additional furniture for the bedroom.
