Collection: Red Armchairs

Red is a bold colour, so the key is to balance with colours that complement. To create a timeless look,  pair with neutral home decor. If you want to head down the maximalist route, add different shades of red. This might also create an elegant feel to the room. Coupling a red accent chair with earthy, natural colours will make for an inviting and warm environment. Touches of green could also work because the two colours complement each other well.

Personal preference plays a huge role here, but typically we'd say burgundy. Burgandy's deep red nature shouts sophistication which would work well in a traditional setting. Eclectic interiors would look great with a Ruby due to its intense boldness. Whereas, a coral shade exudes warmth so would do well in a neutral setting. Harassia also follows a similar colourway, due its earthy tones.

Not at all. Firstly, it depends what you're pairing the red armchair with. If you don't want a bold interior then couple red with neutrals or a black and white colour scheme. Red is not too bold if the rest of the colour scheme is toned down. A red velvet armchair could be a beautiful statement piece in an otherwise neutral environment.

Red is known to show dirt more than its lighter or darker companions. It's a bold colour that highlights stains easily, fact. Dust is also more visible on a red armchair. However, with regular upkeep and simple maintenance this can be avoided. The darker shade of red, the less dirt appears. Burgundy, for example, will hold up well against dust or dirt marks.

This really depends on what furniture you're pairing with the red armchair. Lighter, neutral coloured furniture will work as a beautiful canvas for a bold red armchair. Green is a complementary colour, so using plants and small accessories throughout would work well. Assess the furniture balance in the room, the arrangement and combinations - moving furniture items around could greatly benefit the feng shui.
