Shopping guide: what dimensions to choose for your armchair?
At the heart of your living space, the armchair offers comfort and style to your interior. But choosing the right armchair goes beyond aesthetics and comfort; dimensions are an important aspect to consider.
Once you have determined your dimensions, you are sure to choose a comfortable chair that is suited to your needs.
When choosing your living room chair, it is important to consider these five standard dimensions.
The width of the seat
Avoid excessive depth which could disrupt blood circulation. For chairs with armrests, take into account the curve of the seat and ask the user to take the measurements in an upright sitting position.
Seat depth
For the seat depth of the chair: Measure at the center of the seat, considering the thickness of the pillow if you use one. Adjust the depth according to the user's height for optimal comfort.
Seat height
Measure from the floor to the top of the seat cushion to ensure proper alignment with your legs. Compress the cushion to assess foam density, which is important for comfort.
The height of the armrests
For armrest height: Aim for a height of 22 to 30 cm for comfortable support, and customize according to individual preferences. Opt for flared armrests for more strength.
The height of the backrest
For back height: Measure from the top edge of the seat to the top of the headrest, favoring a higher height for optimal support and to avoid back pain. Choose a recliner for increased sleeping comfort.
