Upholstered Desk Chairs Providing All-Day Comfort

Whether you work from a home office full time or just sit down at the desk to pay the weekly bills, having an upholstered desk chair will provide the comfort and support you need. Upholstered desk chairs provide a luxurious combination of plush comfort with timeless style. Make them a welcoming part of a dedicated home office or use them to provide a little seating to a small writing desk nestled in a corner.

Stationary Vs. Rolling Desk Chairs

When it comes right down to it, there are two primary types of desk chairs to choose from, stationary desk chairs and rolling desk chairs. Stationary chairs are a great choice for smaller work areas you integrate into an existing room, such as a homework station in a child's bedroom. When you have a dedicated home office, adding a rolling desk chair gives you the freedom to glide around the space with ease. Rolling desk chairs often offer additional features as well, such as an adjustable height, tilt and swivel.

Arm Vs. Armless

Armless chairs provide a sleek and minimalist design that make them easy to tuck into the opening at the desk when it's not in use, keeping the pathway by the desk free and clear. If pushing the chair in isn't a major concern, consider choosing a chair with arms instead. The extra support will help if you settle in for long days of work from home.

Leather Vs. Fabric

Once you decide what type of chair you like, it's time to make those final selections with upholstery. When you're looking for timeless refinement, a leather chair makes a great choice. The material is ultra-durable and only gets more comfortable with time. It comes in a variety of neutral color tones, including deep black and a variety of tan and brown tones. When you're looking for something a little softer, choosing a desk chair with soft fabric upholstery is another option. This material comes in a much wider array of color tones.

As you're making your final upholstered desk chair selections, keep the style of the desk itself in mind. Mirror the same design style with the chair you pair with it. Chairs aren't just for the desk itself. You can also get a pair of stationary chairs to place on the opposite side of your desk, making it an inviting spot for family to sit down and talk to you as you work.
