Dining Chairs

Dining and kitchen chairs are an important part of the furniture ensemble that should be chosen with attention and care. Chairs should be not only a part of your comfort and your practical usage but also they should be chosen in accordance with the common style and layout of the room.

So, to what exactly you should pay attention?

How to choose a dining chair?

The answer to this question depends on many aspects. And first one is what are you planning to make with your dining area or kitchen. Is it a united space like in the studio or you have a small kitchen that can be combined only with the space economizing furniture pieces.

It is important due to the fact that this aspect influences all other moments.

What table do you have?

If you already have the table you should choose chairs depending on their size and shape. Rectangular and square tables can accommodate more people than oval and round tables. It is not the best scenario when your guests will feel themselves too closely at the table, or when chairs’ legs will interfere with each other.

And another thought you might use if you already have a table: table and chairs shouldn’t be exactly like from the one dining set. Designers now even advise to experiment, but don’t get carried away. Always strive for balance in the first place.

There are two secrets that can help you to find this balance. Firstly pay attention not to the style and colors, but to the shapes. If your table’s design has rounded shapes and curved lines, search for the chair model with the same design direction. And if it has straight lines and edgy corners then chairs too should have it.

The second secret is legs’ width, tables legs always should be thicker or the same as chairs’.

Your lifestyle and its influence

Depending on your lifestyle and preferences you can decide which size, quantity, and chair type are more preferable for you. If you plan to have many guests in your dining area think about more than four chairs. If you prefer a less crowded time-spending set from the two chairs will be perfect for you.

Chairs sizes and types

These models are the most practical thanks to the possibility of keeping all chairs together when you need more space. It is the best solution for the small space.

This is a classic chair that can come in various designs and configurations.

The armchair has armrests, unlike the semi-armchair. These chair types represent a more luxurious view on the design and will look splendid in the spacious rooms. Usually, they feature upholstery and a more impressive and unique design approach.

Frame material

In most cases is used aluminum, and frames, in the end, are quite durable and strong. And still, it is lightweight that makes it easy to transport and to move in the room. It is not only perfect for its transportability it is also really easy in cleaning.

Wood frames are the most durable and the strongest ones. Wood means stability and luxury, and it is for reason. It has its special aroma and also gorgeous rich texture, which makes this material quite indispensable. It is easy to clean, but it needs special care to maintain its quality.

But still rattan and different types of wood imitators like MDF, particleboards, and others. Rattan is used for the wicker chairs and it is quite stylish and lightweight. MDF, particleboard, and plywood are just different wood imitators that differ in quality and approach of the manufacturing. They are cheaper than wood and can look very like it.

Upholstery material

Leather is a chic and quite expensive upholstery material, but it has certain advantages. Leather upholstery has a refined and rich texture and is very durable and pleasant to touch. If it is kept with the attention it can have a long life. Eco leather can be a good replacement if you can’t allow yourself a real one. Yes, it is not so durable and strong, but it still can be a good variant. Both cases can be with the time wear out, but on the other hand, they are easy to clean.

The fabric upholstery is represented in a way with more variated textures and colors. Mostly are used chenille, microfiber, jacquard, velour, and other fabrics. Every fabric has its own features and needs a unique approach, but Furniture Direction tries to choose the best examples of the fabrics for you.
