Armchairs | Comfortable Seating with Support

Why choose an armchair?

An armchair is an easy way to add extra comfort and style to your home. Whether you’re creating a reading nook, adding a seat to enjoy a film or need a chair to complement your sofa, we have an armchair to suit every space and interior.

How do I choose the right armchair?

Start by thinking about where your armchair will go and how you’ll use it. A compact design can work well in smaller spaces, while a larger armchair may suit a living room or open-plan layout. It’s also worth considering the chair’s height, depth, material and colour so it feels comfortable and works with the rest of your interior.

What styles of armchair are available?

There are plenty of armchair styles to choose from, depending on the look and level of support you want.

High-back armchairs can offer a more supportive sit, while wingback chairs bring a classic feel to living rooms, bedrooms and reading nooks.

Recliner armchairs are a great option if comfort is your priority, while swivel armchairs add flexibility and work well in relaxed, sociable spaces.

Accent chairs and compact designs can also be a good fit for smaller rooms.

Small armchairs for compact spaces

Small armchairs are ideal for bedrooms, reading corners and smaller living rooms where space is limited. They offer comfortable extra seating without overwhelming the room, making them a practical choice if you want to add style and function in a more compact layout.

Armchairs in a range of materials

Our armchairs are available in both fabric and leather, making it easy to find a finish that suits your home.

Fabric armchairs

Fabric armchairs are soft, versatile and available in a wide range of colours and textures. They’re an easy choice if you want a cosy look that works well in both classic and contemporary interiors.

Leather armchairs

Leather armchairs offer a sleek, polished finish that’s easy to style. They’re a practical option for busy homes and work well in spaces such as living rooms, home offices and reading corners.

Armchairs to suit your colour scheme

Our armchairs come in a range of colours, making it easy to find a style that works with your home.

Grey armchairs are one of the most versatile options, with shades ranging from light grey to charcoal that suit both modern and classic interiors.

If you want a softer, warmer neutral that helps create a calm and understated look, beige armchairs are a great option.

Brown armchairs bring depth and richness to a room, whether you prefer lighter tan tones or darker chocolate shades.

You can choose a colour that blends in with your existing furniture or go for a contrasting shade to make your armchair stand out.

Does my armchair need to match my sofa?

Your armchair doesn’t have to match your sofa exactly. A matching design can create a coordinated look, while a different colour, material or shape can add contrast and help your armchair stand out.

If you want a balanced finish, try choosing a chair that shares at least one detail with your sofa, such as the colour tone, fabric or overall style.

Matching sofas and footstools

If you want to complete the look, explore matching sofas and footstools designed to coordinate with your armchair. You can also mix and match styles to create a more relaxed, individual feel in your living room.

If you’re looking for another compact seating option, loveseats can work well in smaller spaces while offering you more room to stretch out.

Which armchairs offer the most support?

If support is a priority, look for armchairs with higher backs, supportive cushioning and well-positioned armrests. High-back, wingback and recliner armchairs can all offer a more supportive sit, making them a good choice if you like to relax in one place for longer periods.

How can I measure for an armchair?

Measure the space where your armchair will go, including leaving enough room around it for side tables, footstools or walkways. It’s also worth checking the chair’s full width, depth and height, along with access points such as doorways, hallways and staircases to allow for enough space when it’s delivered.

Where should I place an armchair?

Armchairs work well in living room corners, beside a sofa, in a bedroom or as part of a reading nook. Positioning one near a side table or floor lamp can help create a comfortable, practical spot to read and relax.
