STOOLS AND CHAIRS
Kitchen furniture has come a long way through the years, but Atlantic Shopping is keen to combine the past, present and future within its expansive selection of bar stools and chairs. The dining chair continues to endure as a stylish symbol of community and familial feasting which all of us use daily.
The rustic four-legged archetype remains popular, designers have not been afraid to stray from the status quo. In doing so, they’ve succeeded in challenging perceptions and genuinely innovating. Where once the term “dining chair” exclusively conjured images of wooden structures, it’s now a springboard for the imagination. Our Eames Style DSR Chair Clear imparts modern tenacity into a retro template. Meanwhile, the Odessa Gas Lift Chair fuses the homely charms with impressive advances in design technology.
The evolution of the chair led to the advent of the bar stool. Sharing much in common with conventional dining furniture, bar stools are typically characterised by robust infrastructure, stylish appearances and comfortable seating. Yet where the average dining chair sits at a respectable 45-50cm, most bar stools tower in the region of 65-70cm. Leaner and more lavish than their furnishing forefathers, bar stools project a sense of the contemporary.
While classic dining chairs remain the top choice for meal times, the breakfast bar stool is the perfect perch for enjoying a morning treat. As times change, so too do the products that define them.
Some are constructed with existing kitchen stools in mind. An example of this is the Eve Bar Stool. A slender sister to the chic Evelyn Chair, the Eve mixes wood, chrome and faux-leather in a stylistic roux. Similarly, the Padded Crescent meets its magnificent match in the Clementine. Both items are characterised by a rounded design and liberal foam padding, enabling you to flit between your furnishings and savour them at any time of day
There is simply no such thing as typical variable height gas lift bar stools and the notion of a standard model continues to elude customers and designers alike. Incidentally, this is where much of the appeal emanates from. Constantly evolving, the definition remains fluid, meaning customers are unlikely to find themselves bored by the stool anytime soon. Similarly, the chair continues to advance and much of its enduring appeal can be attributed to its ability to absorb modern influences and adopt new guises.
For a phenomenal home furnishings experience, combine a set of stools and chairs – we guarantee that you’ll be impressed with the results.
