analysis: When You Need to Add Just a Chair

Using a chair for your interior design

Notes:

• You may have a section of an area – or an entire small room – that has space just for a simple chair and other supporting furniture pieces and decor.
• This space may be against a wall or in the corner that you would like to keep open and minimalistic.
• Take the image example above – you make have a blank wall perhaps in the attic or basement that you would like to decorate. Here are some decor ideas:

  • BRICK WALL:

    convert the wall by using brick wall paper or mural to give your wall a brick-like look – or you can paint it on using stencils. It’s a great idea for a refinished basement or attic.

  • WALL SCONCES:

    illuminate your brick wall – plus add some lighting for this interior area of the room. Since the urban looks great up against brick, these urban-styled wall sconces might be just the thing.

What to put up against a dark wall

Notes:

• How about a chair with a contrasting shape and color? Tie it off with a matching table that brings out the rich look of wood from the two furniture pieces.
• It’s the perfect combination that amplifies the look and feel of the the wood floor and dark wall.
• Note the decor pieces on the table – beautifully dark pieces that blend into the wall. You have created the perfect look for a single chair.

How about against a light-colored wall

Notes:

• Using a single chair against a light background wall works just as well. Maybe something like wicker that blends nicely with an off-color white wall.
• Tie it together with a matching table. A place where you can sit to read or drink your favorite beverage and a table to hold your books or drinks.
• Note the industrial-like pendant lights hanging along the side the wall. Ties the modern and classic look together.

A simple chair for reading

Notes:

• Sometimes a single chair in a room corner or other area can become your reading nook. A place where you can relax and enjoy a good book.
• The chair doesn’t have to be fancy – just comfortable enough to enjoy a 30+ minute read.
• A nice book table would be a great companion – and a reading lamp to provide ample lighting for your reading enjoyment.
