Sharp edges are out, and curves are
in — big time. “Sectionals curve like
ribbons, lounge chairs have sculptural pro昀椀les, and ottomans 昀氀oat in
irregular shapes,” says Christopher
Boutlier, a Washington, D.C.-based
designer. This isn’t just furniture —
it’s art with a purpose.
Curved furniture softens a room
visually and adds a sense of 昀氀ow,
which can be especially welcome in
homes with open 昀氀oor plans. Plus,
let’s be honest: round-backed chairs
and pillowy ottomans just look more
comfortable (and usually are). This
winter, don’t be surprised if your
favorite seat in the house also happens to be the most stylish.
