Dear Olivia,

Inspired by your brief, I have curated your personalised edit with a selection of armchairs designed to complement your living room and pair beautifully with your dark green linen sofa.

Keeping your preferences for eclectic, Scandinavian, and mid-century modern design in mind, I focused on comfortable, inviting pieces that are perfect for reading and watching television. As your husband mentioned a preference for armrests and more substantial shapes, I prioritised generously upholstered designs that feel supportive and cosy, while still bringing plenty of personality to the space.

Most of the finds are within your budget, although I have included one or two options that go slightly over because I felt they were worth considering for their design, comfort, and quality.

I hope you enjoy exploring your edit, and I would love to hear which pieces you feel most drawn to.

Best wishes,

Iokasti
