Unusual armchair for living room interior by Leolux


Generally, your living room or living area would dictate the size needed for a small armchair sofa. This is why it is important to take measurements before making a purchase to ensure the sofa pieces would not overpower the small living area.
This curious armchair features flowing forms and a rounded silhouette that is as comfortable as it looks. Decorative stitching and vibrant upholstery are just a few of its fine details. This small-scale armchair is ideal for urban condos and compact homes where space is at a premium. Placed in a library, living room or foyer, once you sink into this seat you’ll never want to get up.

It’s not just the size either, but the style that you need to be careful of. When choosing armchairs for small spaces, ensure you choose armchairs with thin arms, freestanding legs rather than legs that are hidden by flaps of upholstery.

A large openable glass window wall faces north, maximising exposure to winter sun for heating and allows complete opening up of the living areas to the garden in summer. Deciduous vines on the steel pergola provide summer shade. A swimming pool completes the close integration of inside and outside spaces. [Read more...]
