1. Where to use lounge chairs
A lounge chair is more than just a seat – it's a place to relax and unwind. Lounge chairs are typically used in various parts of the home. Placed in front of the bookshelf in the living room, they instantly create an inviting reading corner or a comfortable TV chair, while in the bedroom they can serve as a quiet retreat and a design accent. They also work well in company reception areas or waiting rooms, where they impress with their stylish looks and high level of seating comfort.
2. Styles
Upholstered or unupholstered
Lounge chairs come in a range of styles. Whether you choose an upholstered or unupholstered version is a matter of personal taste. Upholstered lounge chairs offer extra comfort and are particularly suitable if you sit for longer periods. Unupholstered models, on the other hand, impress with their clean design and are easier to clean.
With or without a backrest?
Lounge chairs come in different shapes, and one important decision concerns the backrest. Models with a high backrest offer more support and are well suited to relaxing, reading or working. Chairs with a low backrest or none at all give the room a more open feel and suit modern interior styles perfectly
3. Materials and care
Indoor lounge chairs are made from a variety of materials, including leather, fabric, wood and metal. Leather adds a touch of elegance and is easy to care for. Fabric covers come in a wide range of colours and create a cosy feel. Wooden or metal frames give a modern look. Care depends very much on the material, although high-quality lounge chair designs usually require less maintenance.
Outdoor lounge chairs are made from special materials designed for outdoor use. Common materials include durable woven plastic, rust-free metals such as aluminium, and weather-resistant teak. This means outdoor lounge chairs stand up to the elements and keep their shape and colour for years – so you can enjoy your terrace or balcony lounge chair for a long time, whatever the weather.
4. Fitting a lounge chair into your space
Thoughtfully integrating lounge chairs into your interior helps create a harmonious atmosphere. Decorative touches such as soft cushions and cosy throws make it even more inviting. Rugs or side tables in coordinating colours add extra accents. Mixing different styles of lounge chair can create interesting visual contrasts and highlight the individuality of your living space. In a minimalist room, a high-back lounge chair can become a stylish eye-catcher that adds a sense of comfort.
