Places For Chatting
/“A comfortable chair is the most hospitable piece of furniture one can own” – Charlotte Moss Whether creating a relaxing seating area in a master bedroom, a lively keeping room off the kitchen, or an office setting, a comfortable place to sit is so important! When arranging a furniture grouping, the way you place your sofas, chairs, and tables has a direct effect on the way the room is used and enjoyed.
When choosing a layout for a bedroom, keep it inviting and comfortable. You want a space that you can relax in and cozy up with your favorite people. In the above bedroom floor plan there is a settee, which is the perfect place to sit with a laptop, have morning tea, or even a landing spot for your duvet to rest when it’s too warm at night. Flanking this with a cozy chair and reading lamp creates a perfect end to the day.
When putting together a keeping room or sun room, it’s always great to introduce several different chairs with a main sofa. This eclectic mix allows guests to feel welcome and comfortable; able to pull up a chair and chat without the formality of perfectly matched pieces.
Whichever grouping you choose to incorporate into your space, always pick something comfortable that you love!
This is one of my favorite chairs. I love the details of the tufting, and once paired with the ottoman it's a chair you will never want to leave. We have it in store now, and it's part of our sale!

Use a lumbar pillow in lounge chairs - Doing so will add a bit of back support and fit just right in the chair. If the chair has a taller back and is deeper, go ahead and use a 20" square.
A chair doesn't always need a pillow - Some chairs, like this beauty, doesn't need any accessorizing. That tufting goes all the way down the seat of the chair and is interesting enough to stand on it's own. There's no need to cover up all of that beautiful detail. 
1. Start with the largest piece and work from there.
1. Think low. The biggest mistake people make when hanging art is hanging it too high. A good rule of thumb is to hang art at eye level. Keep your height in mind. For someone who is short, eye level is going to be lower than most, so raise that art up just a bit, and vice versa for all of you tall folks.
2. Art gives the room a pulse, a heartbeat. Art can bring such a strong emotional impact. It can determine the color palette, set the mood, and become the focal point.
4. Art has the unique ability to raise the level of other pieces around it. Take a beautiful space, with beautiful furniture, add that magical piece of art and it makes the room and the pieces in it.
