Chairs and Seating

The right accessories can elevate your seating arrangement: a simple seat pad or a soft cushion can make even a wooden chair feel luxurious, while a washable cover or slipcover helps keep things tidy (especially useful in busy family homes). Adding a seat protector can also prolong the life of your furniture, whether it's for everyday use or during mealtimes with children.

In multi-use spaces, flexible seating options - like a two-seater sofa, a rocking chair for relaxing, or a high chair for toddlers - help meet varied needs without compromising on style. For those supporting the elderly at home, consider chairs that offer extra back support or adjustable height for added ease.

Complete your dining setup with a dining table or add depth to your living area with a coffee table, rug, or sideboard. In family areas, incorporate extra storage with baskets and boxes, or create a welcoming entrance with a coat stand. For smaller spaces, benches or stools can offer additional seating without overcrowding the room.

How do I choose the right seat pad or cushion?

Match your seat pad or cushion to your seating shape and material. Removable covers and washable fabrics are especially useful in homes with children.

What seating works well in a small kitchen or breakfast nook?

Compact dining chairs, stools, or even a built-in bench can maximise space. Use seat cushions or pads to enhance comfort.

How can I make seating more comfortable for the elderly?
