A garden armchair may be completely upholstered in weatherproof materials or have removable cushions resting on a solid frame. Some are fixed, sculptural pieces, more decorative than comfortable, such as an armchair cast in stainless steel.
It may have an adjustable backrest and/or a matching footrest, which is usually separate. On ArchiExpo, this furniture is defined by properties including its style, intended use, color or material.
Such chairs may be part of an outdoor living space. They can be used for comfortable poolside seating, accompany a garden coffee table or even for sunbathing. They are also found at hotels, restaurants and bars with outdoor areas.
Light, robust, weather-resistant materials, such as anodized aluminum, are sometimes used. Popular upholstery finishes include UVA-resistant woven resin.
Check that chair dimensions leave enough room for circulation and that seat and armrest height are adapted to the intended function. Verify required maintenance, such as the need to apply protective frame coatings regularly and the possibility of easily removing and cleaning cushions. Consider periodic storage needs and whether chair style will blend in or stand out from the surroundings.
