French Days Seating

An armchair is chosen for the space it takes up as much as for its comfort. This selection brings together living room armchairs, a swivel armchair, a small dining armchair, poufs and a reversible corner module.

Three distinct roles

The armchair sits facing the sofa and holds the conversation: it is a seat you keep for years. The pouf plays a supporting role, gets nudged along with a foot and frees up a spot when the room fills up. The corner module, for its part, isn't meant to stand alone: it extends an existing seating arrangement and closes off the layout.

Swivel, reversible: two useful words

A swivel armchair turns on its base, toward the coffee table and then toward the window, without being moved: it is the model to choose for a room that serves several purposes. A reversible module can be oriented to the left or the right, the side being defined as you face the seat. Both words appear in the product name.

Measure the clearance, not just the seat

Note the width of the armchair, then add the walkway: you need enough room to pass in front without brushing the coffee table. For a small dining armchair, check that the armrest slides under the tabletop; otherwise the seat stays pulled back and the place setting ends up farther away.

Frequently asked questions

Can a pouf replace a coffee table?

It can play that role with a rigid tray set on top, for the length of a coffee. The seat remains soft: a glass on its own will always be unsteady there.

How do I pair an armchair and a pouf?

The simplest way is to stay within the same family, like the Nooma armchair and pouf, which share the same line and material. Otherwise, keep one constant, the fabric or the color, and let the other vary.

Why does the same armchair appear several times?

Because each fabric and each color has its own page. The model doesn't change, only the material does.
