Views
All round armchairs can be divided into models designed for home and summer cottages. The first of them are most often soft, but products for a summer residence come complete with a pillow. Among them, it is worth highlighting two types of chairs.
First of all, it is floor models... They both look different and differ in their functionality. Some armchairs are made on a leg or on wheels, in others they are not at all. Floor-standing round chairs are great for relaxing.
Another species worth noting is pendant models... These chairs do not have support, they can swing and rotate. Most often, such models are attached either to a rod or to a beam. Sitting in such a chair, you can sway relaxed without putting much effort into it. It is worth taking a closer look at the most common round seat models.
"Papasan"
This is a very comfortable, soft and spacious model with a fairly solid base. The papasan chair was originally considered a traditional element of every home in Indonesia. And only a few decades ago they began to use it outside this country.
The base of this model is made of natural wood. In addition, a spring mechanism is hidden in the middle, with the help of which it turns out to swing the seat. The upper part of such a chair looks a bit like a hemisphere. It is upholstered with either leather, or suede, or ordinary textiles.
If the chair is not upholstered, then it can be decorated with pillows.
The bottom of the chair is most often made of rattan. The upper part can have a variety of colors, which allows the chair to be used to decorate any interior. The contrast between the upper made of textiles and the woven bottom looks very nice.
Papasan will look great in the living room, on the terrace, and even in the kitchen or dining room. Small pillows can be used as an additional decoration. In the case when the hemisphere is installed in a horizontal position, a cradle for small children is obtained from it, which is very convenient. In addition, in this case, it is not at all necessary to buy a crib for a baby.
Suspended
To some extent, such models are similar to a swing. It will be very comfortable and pleasant to lie in them, curled up at the same time, or just sit, gently swaying. Unlike their counterparts, hanging chairs have a wider base, which makes it comfortable to use.
Such an interesting piece of furniture can fit into the interior of any room.
- For example, models made of rattan, will surprise everyone with their grace. Their manufacturers offer their customers a large number of weaving options. If chairs are bought to decorate the room, then it is best to use natural materials.
If they need to be installed outdoors, artificial materials are also suitable.
- There are a large number of models made from cords and threads, that is, made using the macrame technique. Beautiful openwork weaving immediately makes the piece of furniture elegant. However, before buying, you must definitely decide on the choice of the manufacturer.
The best round chairs in macrame technique are produced by Italians.
- Another option for hanging round chairs is models made of transparent acrylic... The appearance of the material resembles glass and therefore appears fragile. But at the same time, such a product is always quite durable. Most often they are used to decorate high-tech or loft-style rooms. If necessary, the chairs can be supplemented with beautiful multi-colored pillows.
- Suspended models also made from various fabrics. They are used mostly for children. After all, fabric chairs are safer, unlike other models.
Spinning
Modern spinning models are most often made of plastic or metal. They can be with headrests, as well as with armrests. Velor or genuine leather is used as the material for the upholstery. Their appearance is more like a hammock in shape.
When choosing, special attention should be paid to the elasticity of the seat, as well as to ensure that there are no cracks or creases. In addition, the frame must necessarily be made of a rigid material, but at the same time have a low weight.
Armchairs-bags
This piece of furniture was invented by a group of Italian designers over 50 years ago. Its main advantage is ergonomics. Due to the presence of free-flowing filler in the cover, the chair-bag can take any shape. This allows each person sitting in it to receive orthopedic support for the back and neck muscles.
The shape of bean bags can be very diverse. Such models are often bought for babies, because they can be stylized for any soft toy. One of the main advantages of such options is considered to be a removable cover. With its help, you can radically change the interior of the room.
You can install these chairs anywhere, for example, in the living room, on the veranda or in the children's room.
Materials and colors
Round models of chairs are made from different materials. So, for example, their frame can be either metal or wood. In the first case, the shape of the chair can be made very diverse, since in itself such a material as metal is quite plastic. Most often, the frame is covered with soft materials. The only drawback of such models is their heavy weight.
Wooden armchairs are classified as elite furniture. Various types of wood are used for their manufacture, such as oak, alder or bamboo. All of them have a large number of advantages, but the cost of such models is quite high. For this reason, it is best to install them indoors, so that the chairs will last as long as possible. Both options are included in the category of floor-standing models.
Rattan is most often used for hanging products. These are the stems of a certain variety of palm trees. In some cases, their length can be up to 300 meters. Such palms grow in Malaysia. They are divided into three strength classes. At the same time, high-quality rattan chairs are several times more expensive than those made from low-grade materials. For upholstery, you can use materials such as velor, satin or jacquard.
In order for the chairs to fit into the overall interior of the room, you need to choose the right colors. Contrasting shades are suitable for bright and courageous people: white, black, red or any other tones that will help create warmth and coziness in the house.

Any model is suitable for spacious rooms or terraces, they can be either large or small. You can use both suspended and floor options. But for small rooms, for example, for a nursery or a kitchen, it is best to purchase a small armchair.
Manufacturers
