Embrace classic curves If you are a secret fan of Victoriana, but have thus far been reluctant to indulge your passion, you’ll probably like this modern twist on the style. Covered in deeply tufted velvet, this scroll-armed chaise is an exercise in opulence (although the turquoise colour is very contemporary), and looks especially enticing as it is framed by a large bay window that looks out onto a leafy garden.
Cultivate a worldly feel Evoking the suave sophistication of a gentlemen’s club, this guest bedroom features a leather-tufted Chesterfield-style chaise. Surrounded by some impressive occasional furniture with globetrotting credentials, such as an oriental screen, a bamboo bedside table, a Moroccan octagonal side table and a zebra-print rug, this is a couch on which to dream of far-away adventures.
Act natural Why should only outdoor furniture get to be made of wonderful weaves in natural rattans and cane? Bring the outdoors in with this Swedish poolside recliner to replace a more traditional chaise in the bedroom.
