Sunday Lounging

There’s nothing quite like lounging on a Sunday morning, and no better way to do so than in an armchair with a footstool. The ultimate in comfort and relaxation, this setup is perfect for reading a book, watching a film or enjoying a cup of coffee. We’ve explored the benefits of adding an armchair and footstool combo to your living space and have added some tips on how to style them for maximum comfort.

One of the biggest benefits of an armchair and footstool is the comfort they provide. An armchair should be designed to support your back and arms, while the footstool allows you to put your feet up and relax. This is especially beneficial for those who suffer from back or leg pain, as the footstool can help alleviate pressure away from these areas. The Isa Relax by Sits features a tilting backrest that can adjust to the correct position for you. Additionally, the armchair provides a cosy and inviting space to sit, making it the perfect spot to unwind.

Another consideration is size. The armchair should be proportionate to the room and other furniture. The Amy and Alex armchairs by Sits offer oversized designs that are perfect for a room with ample space. And the footstool should be large enough to comfortably rest your feet on, but not so large that it takes up too much space in the room — a balance carefully struck in the Teddy by Sits.

When it comes to styling an armchair and footstool, there are a few key things to keep in mind. The first is to choose a colour and fabric that complement the rest of your living space. If your living room is mostly neutral, consider a pop of colour with a bold or patterned design. On the other hand, if your living room is already quite colourful, you could opt for a neutral armchair and footstool to balance things out. The Daya Armchair by Bontempi Casa comes in an array of finishes and materials.

Regarding accessories, less is more. A throw blanket, a few pillows and a small side table can add comfort and style to the space. Also, you can add a tray to any level footstool design to hold a book, a cup of coffee or a glass of wine.

To make the most of your armchair and footstool, be sure to take time to relax and enjoy them. And, if you want to take the relaxation to the next level, consider adding a floor lamp for a cosy reading nook or a table lamp for a soft ambience.

In conclusion, an armchair and footstool are the perfect addition to any living space. Not only do they provide comfort and relaxation, but they also add character to an interior. With the right styling and accessories, you’ll have a comfortable and inviting spot to relax and unwind.
