Contemporary armchairs

How to choose this product

contemporary armchair

A contemporary armchair is a padded seat with a backrest and armrests. On ArchiExpo, it differs from traditional versions in its creative use of form, color or materials. For example, it might have a steel rather than a hardwood frame and brightly colored upholstery.

Applications

Such a chair can be part of an interior or exterior living room suite, or a unique piece. It may have a massage function, convert into a bed or have integrated storage. Modular and stackable versions offer advantages in commercial applications.

Technologies

Common frame materials include oak and other hardwoods, and metal. Aluminum is often favored for outdoor chairs due to its lightness and resistance to corrosion. The frame is usually upholstered in a material such as leather, cotton or rattan.

How to choose

It is important to consider how the form, dimensions, style and color of the chair will fit into its surroundings. Other factors include ease of maintenance, comfort and padding type and density. Features and specifications may depend on intended use. Office armchair seats and backrests may require a height adjustment mechanism. In exterior and commercial applications, weather or stain resistance may be important.
