how to pair the right accent chair with your sofa

Your living space should be a statement piece that reflects your taste. Finding the dynamic duo that looks amazing together, gives your room flair, and makes a comfortable talking and lounging place might be a bit tough when it comes to choosing a sofa and accent chairs.

Here are some points to be considered while pairing your sofa with accent chairs:

 

Size

Select a sofa and chairs with similar scale and proportions. This will balance your look and prevent one from overwhelming the other. Examine how high the backs are, how deep and wide they are, and how large the arms are to compare the scale of the two pieces.

 

 

Seat Height

Choose a sofa and chair with similar seat heights so that everyone can see each other from the same height.

 

Pattern

While choosing the pattern of the accent chair, if your sofa is patterned, opt for a solid chair and vice versa.

 

Color

Make sure the colors don’t clash with each other. You can go for a monochromatic look.

Style

If you're going for a classic farmhouse vibe, you can go all out with vintage furniture and traditional materials. Keep the room's overall look in mind. Both pieces of furniture should be glam if you're striving for a glam aesthetic.

 

Shape

You don't have to match the shape of your sofa to the shape of your chairs exactly, but you can use the form and contours of your items as a guide to locate furnishings that are similar in shape and will look nice together naturally. Ensure that the overall shape appears to be from the same family.

Material

Another interesting contrast is the material used to make the seating. When paired with an organic-looking woven chair, a velvet sofa creates a dramatic effect.
