Ergonomic Office & Gaming Chairs

If you work on a computer or spend a lot of time gaming, you will want to be comfortable while doing it. For this, ergonomic seating is always the best choice.

In this case, finding the right seat is more than focusing on style alone. You need to find one that's comfortable for your body type, a chair that can provide posture support.

Our ergonomic design chairs come with armrests and a cosy contoured seat, allowing you to sit for extended periods without experiencing pain or discomfort. With lumbar back support, they also help maintain good posture.

For those who spend long shifts at a desk, mesh office chairs will provide breathability as well as assist you in sitting up straight. This particular fabric is also easy to clean.

Because we all have different requirements based on our body shape and frame, it’s important to look at what each office chair offers when researching the perfect comfy chair for you.

Dining Chairs

These chairs are a great way to make your dining area feel more like home and impress your friends and family when you host dinner parties or events at your home. They also play an important role in the design of the room.

What makes them so significant today is how dining chairs in the right design and colour can instantly change up your style and create a new elegant look for any space.

The history of dining furniture dates back centuries when people would use benches or stools with no back support around family tables to enjoy meals together. More often than not, these were made out of materials such as wood or stone with no padding or cushions whatsoever. As you can imagine, sitting for long periods was quite uncomfortable.

Fast forward many years later, and we find that dining chair styles and designs have become super cosy and a lot more stylish than what they used to be. Today, there’s an array of designs and styles on offer. Your choices should fit in well with the overall theme or colour scheme you have chosen to decorate your rooms with. 

That's where Home Detail's expansive dining chair range comes in.

Advantages of Adding Comfy Chair Sets to Your Space

Chairs help to tie everything together and create an inviting atmosphere when the right design and colour have been selected for the accompanying dining table.

Wood dining chairs are great because they blend well with just about any theme. If you have a wood theme, wooden chairs with upholstery seats are always a popular choice. These are great because they create a warmer atmosphere and will blend in well with the rest of your room's decor.

Not limited to only dining areas, you could also create a truly inviting living room by adding some funky living room chairs for a pop of colour and design sophistication.

An upholstered metal frame chair with wooden legs can add both warmth and comfort to an empty corner in your living room space, especially when paired with the correct cushions.

Recliners

In the past, recliner chairs were reserved for times of relaxation and comfort. Today, they are almost a staple in the TV room or living space of every home.

Recliner chairs come with many features that make them more than just a cosy place to relax in living rooms. Some have USB ports to charge your phone or laptop while watching TV, further enhancing the relaxation experience. They are truly perfect for those "Netflix and chill" nights.

Other modern-style chairs also include built-in massage functions that give you an at-home spa experience. Some models have added storage, armrests, cup holders, headrests, and other features to make your experience even better.

Recliners are no longer just contemporary, easy chairs — they also offer modern seating combined with home theatres, massage options, and even video game systems.

Rattan Chairs

Rattan has been used to make furniture for hundreds of years, but it only became extremely popular during the second half of the 20th century. Metal frame pieces were being replaced by plastic and wooden units.

Known for its rigidity and tensile strength, rattan is great at holding up against the forces of nature without snapping or cracking. This makes it ideal for use outdoors on your patio or in the garden.

If you want to create a unique tropical style in your backyard, try opting for rattan lounging chairs. If you're looking for a cosy, old-fashioned vintage look, rattan pieces also give you that rustic, handcrafted, handwoven look. We have units that will look stylish in any room of the house.

Because traditional rattan is usually brown, you’ll find that it matches with cushioning, upholstery, and fabrics of any colour — from neutrals and green to pink or blue.

Armchairs for the Living Room

The armchair is the most common type of chair that makes a house a home. It was originally called the "Ruhlmann Chair" because the first known example of an armchair was created around 1450 by German craftsman Hans Ruhlmann. He made the armchair pieces out of oak wood.

The ability to rest your arms on these modern, easy chairs made them stand out from the benches or stools of the time.

Today, armchairs are modern lounge chairs, often used in living rooms and bedrooms for leisure activities such as reading, watching television, socialising with others, or just relaxing. They can also be found in offices where they are sometimes referred to as executive chairs because of their luxurious appearance — as you get with the velvet armchair design. 

Modernised chairs for living room spaces are often also used in professional environments where people may need to sit for long periods. For example, in a waiting room or airport lounge, sitting for long periods causes discomfort. Enter armchairs: often designed ergonomically to provide the necessary support. They assist with limiting strain and draining on the back or posterior by allowing the seated individual to relax. 

There is no dearth of colour or design options at Home Detail when it comes to the popular armchair.

Modern Accent Chairs & Occasional Chairs

If you are looking for the perfect occasional designer seat for your own space and you're overwhelmed with the home decor choices, you're in the right place. Accent chairs are one of our favourite types of designer chairs.

We stock several options in styles ranging from studded to fluted and more.

Modern occasional chairs are true statement pieces when it comes to adding that extra flair and finesse to your home. Their design is more lavish than standard chairs. And if you need a cosy chair for your bedroom, this range includes modern bedroom chairs in a variety of colours and sleek design options that you won't be able to say no to.

What To Consider When Choosing a Chair

Buying a chair is no easy task. There are so many different types of designer chairs, and it can be hard to know where to start when looking for one to upgrade your own space. Some people might want a lightweight, portable chair with a sleek design, while others may prefer something large and heavy-duty with a flashy design.

Reduce the confusion by asking yourself these questions:

• What is your budget?

• What style or shape do you want?

• What is the intended use of the chair?

• What are your space limitations?

• Do you need it to recline, rock, swivel, or be stationary?

• Is weight capacity an issue for any users in your household?

• What kind of interior design style do you want to achieve in the room?

• How often will it be used?

• Do you have any ergonomic or posture requirements?

Chair Pricing Expectations

The type of material the chair is made from will influence the price. An ergonomic or leather office chair will cost more than an office desk chair with matching fabric upholstery.

When buying a chair, you should consider what functions you need from the different types of modish chairs that are available. For example, opt for armrests and a soft seat for comfort or wheels on casters if you expect to move it often. 

Understanding the Functionality

Choosing the right chair is not just about being comfortable. It can also be a way to express your personality, mood, or taste in decor. There are different types of chairs to choose from, and the right one can make you feel more energised and productive at work. The wrong chair could have the opposite effect, making you feel tired and sluggish.

That's why it pays to better understand your needs before you choose which type of chair will best suit you.

If you want a quiet seat for reading or working, consider armchair styles with a back frame that matches your size. This may encourage good posture and possibly block out sound from behind. If you need something stylish but functional for meetings and conferences, go for a chair with built-in lumbar, head, and neck support. For ultimate desk comfort, choose a chair with an adjustable height.
