Comfort or style?

11:55 pm in Space, decor by Shellie

Do you have to sacrifice comfort for style? While many people think so, you certainly do not! Some rooms make you feel comfortable as soon as you enter them, this has a lot to do with not only how soft the furniture is or the choice of decor but the placement as well.

Choosing Your Furniture

Although a trip to the flea market may find you a fabulous end table you can refinish or the perfect garden statue you have been looking for, there are some pieces that you don’t want to skimp on like your sofa or bed. You are not required to break the bank on these purchases but you certainly should make sure that they fill your needs as far as comfort and style go. One quality investment piece can go a long way in a room!

Consider Placement

Before you buy that stunning sofa or dining room table, it is a good idea to take measurements in the showroom or use those that are provided online and map out where that piece of furniture will go in your room. You can lay down a rope outline, use rolled towels or whatever else you have handy, just make sure that it fits your space. An item that is not the appropriate size can cause a room to become uncomfortable quite quickly.

The ideal home where people want to gather is stylish and comfortable, you can easily achieve this by thinking through your choices and making sure that they fit the room properly.

Zaisu Chairs : Dining Furniture in Traditional Japanese Sitting Style

Zaisu chairs are a floor sitting piece of furniture that came into style in Japan during the Muromachi period. During that period of architecture floors were covered in thick straw mats known as “tatami”. The ruling warrior class created strict rules about living daily lives which brought on the sitting posture called “seiza” as it was deemed the respectful way to sit. Now, Japanese dining furniture sets featuring Zaisu chairs are popular as families adopt traditional Japanese ways of living in an effort to improve the connection a family feels while spending time together.
