Occasional Chairs

Occasional chairs enhance your room. They provide a crucial focal point in your living room, occupying awkward corners or extra space. By placing them in strategic places, you make your overall design sharp, focused, and cohesive.

Therefore, having the perfect occasional chair for your space is important. Among Olan Living’s Occasional Chairs collection, find chairs in various shapes, sizes, and colours – there’s always something for everyone.

Accent Chair

Occasional chairs – often dubbed accent chairs – can make or break your whole decor. A well-placed accent chair balances your room, adding more character. However, an accent chair is more than a decorative piece.

Accent chairs provide extra seating. They work well in limited spaces where you can’t put a sofa in. Occasional chairs are also purposeful. The term ‘occasional’ means that they are used for an occasion. These occasions include reading, lounging, watching TV, and many more.

Occasional Chairs/Accent Chairs for Any Room

Despite being widely used in living areas, occasional chairs are often utilised in other rooms. Some areas you’ll find an occasional chair in:

• Living Room: Most households have accent chairs/occasional chairs in the corners or centre of their living room. They complete the space and provide extra seating.
• Bedroom: Accent chairs made bedrooms more cosy. They fill out empty corners and pair well with dressers/mirrors. 
• Kitchen/Dining Room: In kitchens/dining rooms, occasional chairs lend personality. 
• Home Office: An accent chair inside your home office helps make the room less austere/serious, improving the comfy feel.
• Nursery: Households with babies benefit from an occasional chair. It gives space for caretakers to rest their feet while improving the whole decor.

Browse for Variety

Variety is what you’re looking for when searching for an occasional chair. It helps to have a shortlist of what you want in your room. This way, you can decide which colour, texture, or shape you want. 

Why do colour, texture, or shape matter? They matter because a well-picked occasional chair should enhance your decor. 

• Colour: Occasional chairs improve your decor by contrasting or blending. Contrasting colours positioned the chair as your focal point while blending colours brought out the cohesiveness.
• Texture: Textured chairs exude elegance and smooth ones help the space look more comfortable.
• Shape: Sharp-cornered accent chairs suit minimalist, modern homes. The round-cornered chairs look at home with chic or art deco decor.
