Which Armchair Is Right for You?

The choice of an armchair depends on how you want to use it, your interior style, and the available space. We'll help you make the right choice step by step.

Fixed Armchair

The classic fixed armchair comes in countless forms: from low and wide for maximum relaxation to compact and upright for a home office. A fixed armchair has a strong, stable frame — often made of solid wood or steel — making it extremely durable. Choose a model with a high backrest if you plan long reading sessions, or a lower model if the armchair is meant to be a design statement in your living room.

Swivel Armchair

A swivel armchair offers maximum flexibility. Ideal in the TV corner — you can easily turn to join the conversation without moving your whole body. A swivel armchair is also a comfortable, stylish choice for a home office. Many models feature a 360° swivel function on a solid metal base. When purchasing, pay attention to the weight of the base: the heavier it is, the more stable the entire unit.

Armchair with Footrest

An armchair with a footrest is the epitome of relaxation. After a long day, putting your feet up – there's nothing quite like it. Some models have a fixed, pull-out footrest (recliner armchair), while others are combined with a separate pouf in the same material and color. Our custom-made models can always be extended with a matching pouf or ottoman.

Wingback Armchair

The wingback armchair — also known as a wing chair or bergère — has high, curled side panels that provide protection against drafts and ambient noise. Originally designed for placement by a fireplace, this model has become a timeless piece of living room DNA. A wingback armchair in dark velvet or English bouclé adds character and warmth to any interior.

Lounge Armchair

The lounge armchair is low, wide, and inviting — perfect for truly sinking into comfort. Think of the iconic Egg Chair silhouette or a spherical shell on a steel or wooden leg. Lounge armchairs are ideally suited for a large living room or a reading nook with natural light. They combine excellently with a side table at eye level.

Materials — From Fabric to Leather

The material of an armchair determines not only its appearance, but also its feel, maintenance, and lifespan. At Industrial Home, you participate in the choice.

Fabric: Bouclé, Velvet and Linen

Bouclé is the fabric of the moment: coarsely woven, woolly, and warm. It instantly gives an armchair a Japandi or Scandinavian look. Velvet is richer in color and feels luxurious — ideal for an armchair that wants to stand out. Linen is airy, natural-toned, and timeless. All fabrics are available in a wide color palette and can be custom-made for our configurable models.

Leather and Faux Leather

Leather is the choice for those who appreciate durability and a patina effect. As the years pass, real leather becomes more beautiful and characterful. Faux leather is easier to keep clean — a big advantage in households with children or pets. Our leather armchairs are available in cognac, black, anthracite, and sand beige.

Wooden Frame

Virtually all our armchairs have a frame made of solid wood — oak, beech, or walnut — or powder-coated steel. A wooden frame adds warmth and matches an industrial or Japandi interior. A steel frame suits a more minimalist or urban design. Ask about the options in our custom configuration.

Styles — Find Your Match

Industrial

Robust, raw, and authentic. An industrial armchair combines a metal frame with sturdy leather or coarsely woven fabric. Perfect for open living spaces with concrete floors, steel windows, or brick walls. Our own collection of industrial seating furniture seamlessly fits this style.

Japandi

The fusion of Japanese minimalism and Scandinavian warmth. A Japandi armchair has a low profile, clean lines, and a matte, natural color palette. Bouclé, light oak, and soft earth tones are central. Less is more — even when choosing your accessories.

Modern & Scandinavian

Clean forms, clear colors, and high-quality craftsmanship. Modern and Scandinavian armchairs are designed for both comfort and aesthetically pleasing design. Often compact in size, but grand in appearance — ideal for smaller living rooms or apartments.

Rural

Warm, inviting, and full of character. A rural armchair in natural linen or soft cotton brings tranquility to your home. Combine with an earthy-toned rug and a floor lamp for a cozy reading nook.

The Perfect Spot for Your Armchair

Reading Nook

An armchair in a reading nook requires a high, supportive backrest and good armrests. Combine it with a floor lamp to the right or left for optimal, shadow-free lighting and a side table for your coffee or book.

TV Corner

In the TV corner, you want an armchair that allows you to relax. Choose a model with a low seating position or a swivel version so you can easily switch between watching TV and interacting with the rest of the room. An armchair with a footrest or reclining function completes this spot.

Bedroom

An armchair in the bedroom gives the space a hotel-like allure. Choose a compact model that doesn't take up too much floor space. A wingback or lounge armchair in a calm color works excellently here.

Home Office

In a home office, an armchair combines the best of a lounge chair and a work chair. A swivel armchair with armrests at an ergonomic height is ideal for video calls and meetings from home — without the clinical appearance of a desk setup.

Smart Combinations

An armchair rarely stands alone. The right accessories complete the picture:

  • Side table: Choose a round side table at the same height as the armrest — ideal for drinks, books, or your phone.
  • Floor lamp: An arc floor lamp or adjustable reading lamp next to the armchair is both functional and atmospheric.
  • Pouf: A matching pouf or ottoman in the same material and color gives the armchair a lounge-like, comfortable character.
  • Rug: Anchor your armchair in the room with a rug that picks up the color or texture of the armchair.

Customization — Your Design, Our Craftsmanship

At Industrial Home, almost every armchair is customizable. Choose your own fabric from our swatch book, determine the color of the frame, choose the height of the legs, and indicate whether you want armrests. You can also submit your own design — our craftsmen will translate that into a handmade end result. Use our 3D configurator to see in real-time what your armchair will look like.

Frequently Asked Questions about Armchairs

What size armchair fits in my living room?

Allow at least 45–60 cm of walking space around the armchair. A compact armchair has a seat width of 60–70 cm; a more spacious lounge armchair is easily 80–90 cm. Measure the available space before buying, including the space you need to comfortably get in and out.

Armchair in fabric or leather — what is the best choice?

Fabric (bouclé, velvet, linen) is warmer, softer, and available in more colors. Leather and faux leather are easier to wipe clean and last longer in a busy household. Choose fabric if you want a cozy look; choose leather if you want low maintenance or if there are children or pets.

What are the advantages of a swivel armchair?

A swivel armchair gives you maximum flexibility: you can easily turn to join a conversation, follow the TV, or rotate to your workspace in your home office. The 360° rotation also reduces strain on your back because you have to turn your upper body less. Ideal for multifunctional living rooms and open-plan layouts.

Can I order a custom-made armchair from Industrial Home?

Yes. Virtually all models are customizable: choose your fabric, color, frame finish, and dimensions. You can also submit your own design or image for inspiration. Use the 3D configurator on our site for a real-time preview, or contact us for personal advice via our custom-made page.

How do I combine an armchair with my sofa?

Choose an armchair in the same color palette as your sofa, but not in the exact same model — that looks too uniform. A gray velvet sofa combines beautifully with a cream bouclé wingback armchair. Ensure that the seat heights are comparable (±5 cm) so that the overall look is visually harmonious. Use a rug to tie the sofa and armchair together into one seating group.

Frequently asked questions

What fabrics are available?

Velvet for luxury, bouclé for texture and warmth, leather for durability, linen for a natural feel, and cotton for a wide range of colors.

How do I choose the right size?

An armchair is typically 70-90 cm wide and 80-95 cm deep. Wide and low = lounge. Narrower and higher = reading nook. Always try it out before buying.

How do I care for a velvet armchair?

Brush velvet regularly with a soft brush (always in the same direction). Blot stains immediately, never rub. Use a velvet protector spray.

Does an armchair fit in a small living room?

Absolutely — a compact armchair (70 cm wide) offers flexibility. Choose a model with slender, higher legs for a lighter visual effect.

How long does a quality armchair last?

With good construction (solid frame, high seat density) and normal use: 10-20 years.

How do I combine an armchair with my sofa?

Choose the same color palette but vary the style. Two armchairs facing a sofa create a classic conversation configuration.
