Living by Design
At Living By Design, our collection of armchairs is thoughtfully designed to suit modern Australian homes, balancing visual appeal with everyday comfort. Whether styled as a standalone feature or paired with a sofa, the right armchair can define a space and invite you to relax. From sculptural silhouettes to softly structured forms, each design is created to feel as good as it looks.
Styles to suit every living space
Our range of armchairs includes options for both compact and generous layouts. A classic accent armchair works beautifully as a focal point, adding contrast and interest to neutral interiors. For added flexibility, a swivel armchair offers easy movement and relaxed functionality, perfect for open-plan living or reading corners.
If you are creating a layered seating arrangement, an occasional chair or armchair pairs effortlessly with larger furniture such as sofas or a chaise, offering extra seating without visual heaviness. Whether your style leans contemporary, minimalist or classic, there is an armchair to suit your space.
Materials and finishes made to last
Comfort is key when selecting armchairs, and material choice plays a major role. Many of our designs are upholstered for softness and durability, with carefully selected fabrics that feel inviting while standing up to daily use. For a sleek, modern look, some styles are available in vegan leather, offering the appearance of leather with a contemporary edge.
Removable slip cover options add versatility and practicality, making it easier to refresh your space over time. Each accent armchair is designed with quality craftsmanship in mind, ensuring long-lasting comfort and support.
Styling tips for a balanced look
When styling your armchair, consider placement first. Position it near natural light for a relaxed reading nook, or angle it towards your seating area to encourage conversation. A single swivel armchair can soften the lines of a structured living room, while a pair of armchairs creates symmetry and balance.
Layer with cushions or a throw to introduce texture, and keep surrounding décor minimal to let your armchair stand out. Coordinating finishes across your furniture helps create a cohesive, considered space.
