CGD's Favorite Accent Chairs

Accent chairs are a great way to make the design of a space feel complete. While they’re usually not the main event or focal point of a space, they can still make big style statements and help balance the design of a room.

When it comes to accent chairs we love, we're embracing 2022 trends, while also keeping a timeless aesthetic in mind.

We’re highlighting our favorite accent chairs at different price points that work with a range of styles. These are anything but boring. Our collection of featured chairs has the perfect blend of function and style.

Affordable Brands

Impressive design doesn’t always come with a high price tag. If you’re on a budget and looking for a gorgeous quality chair under $1,000 here are our top finds.

Clementine Occasional Chair

We love to include curved forms in our designs and the Clemintine Occasional Chair by Nuevo is a stunner. With a mid-century modern aesthetic, it comes in gorgeous almond, terra cotta, navy, and nectarine colors. When working with a designer, you can order this chair directly from the manufacturer and customize the fabric color, expanding your color offerings. 

Just as comfortable as it is stylish, the plush seating makes it the perfect piece to add to a reading nook or for extra seating in a living room. 

Gwyneth Ivory Boucle Chair

At CGD we can’t get enough of boucle fabric, and this Gwyneth Ivory Boucle Chair by Goop and CB2 will not disappoint. 

This chair features a mod curved shape and is finished in a rich fabric, making it a simple yet elevated piece. The off-white poly blend boucle-like fabric gives it the style and luxury of boucle without the outrageous price tag. It’s perfect for adding a touch of luxury to any space.

Casco Chair

Another great CB2 piece, designed by Estudio Bola, is the Casco Chair. This chair is sleek and sculptural with a beautiful mahogany frame and leather seat and back. The wood used is FSC certified, so it’s been made with sustainable materials.

The scale of this piece makes it the perfect accent for smaller spaces. Pair it with the Casco Ottoman to complete the look.

Hector Chair

When it comes to accent chairs we love a piece with textural accents and woven features like the Hector Chair by Noir.

With a sleek sungkai wood frame, rope back, and cotton cushion seat this piece is minimal and modern without skimping on comfort. A great accent for a living area or office to add subtle style.

Midgrade Brands

If you’re able to spend a little more and want the best of function, style, and quality in an accent chair then here are our top picks priced over $1,000. Many of these are customizable options so it’s worth the splurge.

Mila Swivel Chair

Up next, is the Mila Swivel Chair by Four Hands. We grouped a pair of these chairs in the living room of our Beverly Rd project in the Brazos Dove fabric. They’re the ideal complement to the camel leather sofa. Creating the perfect seating area for gathering and entertaining.

Sturdy and stylish, it comes in two beautiful colors and is upholstered in a performance fabric making it durable and easy to clean. Great for those with kids and/or pets.

Lyla Chair

The Lyla Chair by Four Hands is another curved beauty. The rounded body of the chair conforms to the human form making it a spot that you’ll never want to leave. The cylindrical rubberwood legs become a design statement in themselves as they add dimension and visual interest.

The piece comes in ivory and gray colors. Beautiful and comfortable, it’s great for any seating area in a living room, bedroom, or office. We love how this designer had it reupholstered in a beautiful marigold velvet fabric, for a more customized look - another option when working with a designer! 

Clover Swivel Chair

When it comes to swivel chairs, we love ones that are understated and the swivel feature is discrete. The Clover Swivel Chair by Younger + Co is just that. It has a rounded barrel shape on a nearly invisible swivel base. 

We love Younger furniture because their pieces are fully customizable. So whether you’d like this chair in a light or dark color, something more colorful or patterned, even fabric or leather there are tons of beautiful options to choose from. 

Bouty Chair

Another great Younger + Co piece, the Bouty Chair is as comfortable as it is stylish. 

Again, it’s customizable so you can get a wide range of looks. You can choose from wood or metal legs in different finishes, and leather or fabric upholstery in a variety of colors and styles. There are 1,730 configurations total, meaning you can tailor this chair to fit the color pallet and aesthetic of your space.

Bale Chair

To round out a seating area, we love the Bale Chair, another Younger + Co gem.

Also a customizable piece, we specified this chair in the living room of our Crestview project. Though this space had a relatively neutral pallet, we wanted to pull out the blue tones from the artwork and rug. We chose a denim blue performance fabric with a black wenge wood frame, which complimented the other furnishings and finishes perfectly.

Sophisticated and classic with mid-century influences this chair is great for any space. 

Hem Lounge Chair

The Hem Lounge Chair by Industry West puts a modern twist on a classic mid-century modern design. The piece is comprised of an ash wood frame, with inland cane paneling finished with upholstered cushions for comfort and style.

If your style is more neutral we love the charcoal black and walnut-colored frames. For those that like a pop of color it also comes in ocean blue and cactus green.   

Luxury Brands

For those that like the best of the best then luxury brands fit your style. These brands don’t only make big style statements, they’re also of the highest quality and are made to last for generations to come. 

If you are looking for an accent chair that can become a family heirloom and part of your legacy, here are some of our favorites from top luxury brands: 

Hi-Wire Lounge Chair

The Hi-Wire Lounge Chair from Thayer Coggin, designed by Ransom Culler is an instant classic.

The modern metal frame is expertly designed to give the appearance that the body of the chair is floating within the frame. The body of the chair has a timeless lounge chair shape with minimal clean lines. Made to elevate any space.

This piece becomes even more personal with a selection of customizable materials and finishes.

Hudson Swivel Club

To add some serious style to your home we have the Hudson Swivel Club by Verellen.

The rounded shape is designed to cradle you while the plush cushioning adds an extra layer of sumptuousness. Complete with a back detail this chair is the right blend of comfort and refinement.
