Paris:Sete Guide - How to Choose an Armchair

The beauty of an armchair is that it functions both as a decorative piece and as a place of refuge and solace within the daily hustle and bustle.

We offer a variety of contemporary and classic armchairs, allowing you to make a choice thinking that you will have a work of art and a piece of furniture at the same time.

I. Things to Consider

To create space in smaller areas of the home, keep furniture pieces to a minimum.

Larger areas can benefit from the presence of darker woods and colors. Smaller areas with lighter colors can give the illusion of more space.

Consider the shape of the armchair taking into account the desired functions. High-back armchairs provide greater back and neck support as well as greater privacy; Horizontally oriented armchairs are more flexible and focused on comfort and relaxation.
