How to choose dining chairs
Although at first glance this might seem like an easy task, the truth is that you need to take several things into account. On the one hand, your dining chairs need to match aesthetically with the rest of your decoration. However, it’s also important that they’re comfortable.
To make sure it passes the comfort test, sit on the chair for a minute and pay attention to the backrest, the lumbar support, and the seat. Does it all feel good? If so, then that might be the perfect chair for you!
The ideal measurements for dining chairs
- The seat: this should be about 18 inches high so that it’s in proportion with the dining table and the legs create a right angle. In terms of width, we recommend 18 inches wide with a depth of approximately 20 inches.
- Backrest: to be comfortable, we recommend that you find a backrest that is between 30 to 40 inches high. Avoid any chairs that are taller than 45 inches as these limit mobility.
Prevailing trends in dining chairs
In recent years, the mix and match trend has become popular in many homes. This idea, which began in only the most avant-garde restaurants, is also a great idea to give your dining room lots of style.
You can combine several types of chairs, such as the Eames and Tolix. On the other hand, you can also choose one model and use different finishes, upholstery, or colors for a unique look!
Another cool trend we’ve seen on Instagram is to make the chairs at the heads of the table stand out from the rest. For example, a chair with armrests or one in an armchair style are good options. However, you need a spacious dining room so it doesn’t look too cramped.
