Your accent chair can either match your sofa or stand out in a bold, complementary pattern or hue. As long as the overall vibe of your furniture is harmonious, you can customize each piece to your heart’s content. Here are some ideas:

• An accent chair in a stripe fabric would look great in a country or coastal living room.
• Classic accent chairs are often upholstered in neutral hues, or in black or brown leather.
• Your modern space would be accentuated with a striking chair tailored with a novelty pattern fabric or in white.

And don’t forget to finish your space—accent chairs pair well with a small ottoman to use as a footstool or with an accent table for placing drinks, books, and décor.
