Currently Loving: A Good Accent Chair

What kind of blog would I be if I didn’t highlight my love for a good seat. In case you didn’t know, This Is A Good Seat is an ode to my mother who always had an endless rotation of armchairs growing up. She’d have anywhere from 6-8 chairs in the living room and at least 2-3 more in the garage to swap out when she grew bored of the ones on display. It is because of her that I love interior design and am always moving my furniture around. The name of this website comes from that feeling I get when I see a kickass chair and feel compelled to sit in it and since there isn’t a latin word for that feeling yet, we’re gonna go with “this is a good seat”. 

There are so many different kinds of chairs - whether it's armchair, club chair, side chair, rocking chair, barrel chair, lounge chair - the list goes on and on. But we all know and love a good chair to curl up with a good book in or have a deep conversation in or even a chair just for throwing your clothes on in your bedroom is a good chair too. 

The beloved accent chair, the chair that can either ride solo or go as a pair. This is a chair that comes in many different styles and can go in almost every room of the house. I especially love a good set of swivel barrel chairs for deep conversations, or a statement wingback chair in the living room for reading in.

While a good chair is mostly characterized as a seat with 4 legs and a back, a good seat is whatever and wherever you make it. And like with all things design, if it speaks to you then that’s a good seat.
