With the onset of the recession in 2008, furniture and decor sales suffered somewhat, though they have started to rebound in 2012 and 2013. When it comes to interior design, the chairs you choose for your home or office cannot be merely comfortable. They also have to be functional within the context of the room in question. Even the use of Eames lounge chairs and semitransparent, “stackable” ghost dining chairs (comprised of polycarbonate material that is molded via injection) for outdoor patios must be carefully considered, so as to capture the perfect ambiance.

Whether you select designer chairs for sale or replica furniture, aesthetics are important. Color coordination is certainly part of it, but the room should also have a certain natural flow to it that is both logical pleasing to the eye and well-designed.

Modern-day chairs, as well as the lingo that goes with it, have an interesting history. The term “sofa” is derived from the Arabic word that means “bench.” Initially, couches functioned more like daybeds for laying down on rather then for sitting in. “The word “chairman,” which is still used in the business world, came to be because only people of great status were permitted to sit in chairs. All others had to use stools, benches, or were even relegated to the floor.
