Plus: The Armchair Style That’s Surprisingly Out of Favour in 2022

Go all in on accent pieces and give fabric a miss this year. These are the top tips according to the latest research into armchair style trends from one of Britain’s top furniture retailers. Furniture Village (https://www.furniturevillage.co.uk) has looked into the recent search data and revealed what people are looking for when trying to find their perfect cosy companion. Here are the armchair trends to suit your home style and space this year.

Be bold with an eye-catching accent armchair

Accent armchair is this year’s new must-have piece according to recent search data. With an increase in online searches of almost 150%, these cosy chairs are keeping more of the nation comfy than ever before Accent armchairs aren’t just a place to relax with your favourite book or TV show, they’re quick and easy ways to instantly update your space. Which means if your living room is in need of an upgrade, you can’t go wrong with an accent armchair in a bold print or lively colourway. Choose one that reflects your personality and watch it become a fun talking point when guests come over.

Get comfortable in a recliner armchair

Recliner armchairs are still the most sought-after style, with the number of online searches for this comfy option continuing to grow year after year. They’re sleek, luxurious and always on-trend. Come summer or winter, the recliner armchair is the perfect spot for putting your feet up and stretching out (and maybe the odd midday snooze!). No wonder they’re top of the list for online searches.

Choose timeless style with a durable leather armchair

Searches for leather armchairs have also soared in the past two years. This classic armchair is impressively easy to look after, so don’t be surprised if it lasts you a lifetime! Although they have a reputation for being a little old-fashioned, leather armchairs are far from it. They come in various statement shades, including bright yellows and cool blues. So, if you’re looking to add a pop of colour to your space, look no further.

Create a chic nook with the classic Bergère armchair

If you’re a fan of the chic casual style, the Bergère armchair is slowly becoming a top favourite for people looking for classic types of armchairs. It’s a piece of furniture that not only invites you to sink in and unwind, but it also makes you feel like royalty in the process.

Maybe skip fabric armchairs this year

Whether you’re a fan of bold colours or pretty patterns, you’re guaranteed to find a fabric armchair to complement your space. Even though they seem to be out of favour, with searches for this type of armchair dropping significantly over the past two years, there’s lots to love about fabric chairs. They’re comfortable, easy to style and won’t break the bank. So, if you’ve fallen for their charms, go ahead and find your match. But if you want to venture out and try something new, there are so many other trendy furniture pieces worth thinking about!
