Modern Occasional Chairs Australia
An occasional chair does something a sofa can't β it introduces a distinct shape, material or colour into a room, creating a point of interest that breaks up an otherwise uniform seating arrangement. The Seek & Ramble occasional chair range draws from a range of design influences: mid-century modern silhouettes, coastal relaxed forms and contemporary upholstered designs that sit equally well in a living room or a reading corner.
The range covers distinct chair families. The Xara Occasional Chair brings a graphic, sculptural silhouette to any space β available in Denim, Olive and Pepper. The Luna Upholstered Armchair combines generous proportions with a soft, contemporary form in Natural, Navy and Sky. The Mattia Armchair is available in premium leather (Black and Tan) and upholstered fabric (Natural Pepper and Olive). The Milo Lounge Chair features a brushed steel frame with Brunswick Rust and Slate upholstery, and the Oscar Lounge Chair combines boucle and oak for a warmer, more textured aesthetic.
For households that spend time outdoors, the Parco Outdoor Lounge Armchair is built for both indoor and outdoor use β available in Olive and Sand, from $699. Every piece ships from the Sydney warehouse with fast delivery across Australia. Browse chairs for living rooms, explore coastal accent chairs, shop mid-century modern armchairs, or view modern organic armchairs to find your style.
Frequently Asked Questions
