What is an armchair? 

An occasional armchair is a type of chair that has armrests attached to the chair seat or back. Armchairs are designed for comfort and relaxation and are often used in living rooms, bedrooms, libraries, and offices. Armchairs can be done in upholstery in a variety of fabrics and come in a variety of sofa styles, including reclining, swivel, and rocking chairs. We have one of the widest ranges of armchairs in Australia, featuring designer armchair styles you won’t get anywhere else. If you’re looking for modern occasional chairs in Australia or classic accent chairs in Australia, our extensive range will have what you need.

What are the different types of armchairs? 

There are many different types of armchairs available on the market today. Some of the most popular include recliners, wingbacks, club chairs, and slipper chairs. 

Recliners are a great choice for those who want to be able to kick back and relax in their chair. Many recliners come with built-in footrests and some even have massage functions. If you’d rather a classic armchair but want to put your feet up, opt instead for a matching ottoman.  

Living room armchairs add extra seating to your lounge space – perfect for when you have extra guests. Accent chairs in complementary colours, or fabric armchairs in velvet or boucle, add texture and visual interest to your living room. 

Accent chairs are perfect for creating a focal point or for adding a pop of colour. Whether nestled in a cozy reading nook, complementing a living room set, or standing alone as a statement piece in a hallway, an accent chair not only provides a practical place to sit but also serves as a reflection of your personal style.

If you’re looking to buy a bedroom chair or sofa in Australia, look no further! Our range of lounge chairs are the right size for the corner of your bedroom and are great for making a little reading nook (or as a seat to put on your shoes!).  Designed for comfort and relaxation, our bedroom lounges feature a more laid-back design with comfortable upholstery and additional features for extended sitting.

The classic spot for occasional armchairs and accent chairs has to be the study. Ideal for your home office, armchairs give you a place to read emails, check notes, write in a journal, and more. Soften the look with soft cushions or a throw to make your study feel welcoming.  

An armchair sofa combines the best of both worlds: the comfort of an armchair and the utility of a sofa. Ideal for smaller spaces or as an addition to your existing furniture. Their versatility makes them a perfect choice for any room, be it your living room, study, or bedroom.

Integrating lounge chairs into my home decor

Integrating lounge chairs into your home decor can transform the look and feel of your space by choosing a chair that either complements or provides a striking contrast. Think about the chair's placement – near a window for natural light or in a cozy corner for a reading nook. Our Adairs lounge seat collection offers versatile options that can enhance any space.

How do I clean an armchair?

Cleaning an armchair properly will keep it looking fresh and prolong its lifespan. For fabric upholstery, begin by vacuuming regularly to remove dust and debris that may accumulate in the crevices. If there are spills, it’s important to blot them immediately with a clean, dry cloth to prevent stains from setting. For deeper cleaning, follow the care label instructions, and use a mild detergent or upholstery cleaner suitable for the specific fabric type. 

How big should an armchair be?

Choosing the right size for an armchair depends on the room’s proportions and the function of the seating. Typically, armchairs should be wide enough to provide comfortable seating without overwhelming the space. For living rooms, armchairs that are slightly larger with deep seating can offer added relaxation, while smaller models work well in tighter spaces or bedrooms. It’s also important to consider the height and depth of the chair, ensuring it complements your other furniture without obstructing the flow of the room. The scale of the armchair should match both the room's size and the purpose it will serve.

Are armchairs suitable for small spaces?

Yes, armchairs can be a great addition to small spaces when chosen carefully. Opt for more compact designs with slim arms and legs to maximise floor space without compromising on comfort. Chairs with raised legs can also create a sense of openness, making a room feel larger. If space is very limited, consider multifunctional armchairs, such as those with hidden storage or smaller accent chairs that provide seating without overwhelming the room. The key is to select an armchair that fits the scale of the space while still adding style and comfort.
