Article’s luxe velvet lounge chair has a wide base and flattened armrests, which can double as a headrest as you slowly sink into the seat.

Floyd’s lounge chair is quite literally called a “sink down” chair. and that is what it’s made to do. The seat base is wide and roomy, and the cushions are cloudlike. Good to sink into for the whole rest of the day.

Some furniture brands are making what they call a chair and a half, which is bigger than your normal chair but not as big as a love seat. You could squish two people onto it if you want, but it’s really meant to be plenty roomy for one. Plus, we love a little bit of velvet.

No one does big and stark contemporary furniture like Arhaus. The brand loves a big, luxe sofa, and the photography backdrop of marble or concrete speaks volumes to the vibe.

That said, everything it churns out is both elevated and incredibly comfortable. The Engles chair features nice soft lines and a high back you can really relax into. That said, there are probably ten other options from Arhaus that could have made this list.

CB2 is our favorite retailer for contemporary mid-century-inspired furniture. No one does it better at a similar price point. Some of the brand’s best offerings at the moment are the Rodez apartment sofa, long sofa, and this little accent chair. The shape is elegant, the leather is absolutely beautiful, and the seat is deep enough for you to get comfortable.

One word of warning though, it’s quite a low-slung chair. The seat is only about 17 inches off the ground.

The Citizenry works with artisans from all over the world for its collections, and it’s recently been expanding into furniture. A lot of it is good, but the Helm armchair is the absolute standout. The shape is modern, but the materials are homey.

The chair is great for reading, but pair it with the ottoman and you’ve got an all-day lounge setup.

A regular recliner will be comfortable, but it might not match your taste level. Thankfully our friends over at DWR make a recliner that’s got a more refined shape. Plus, with almost 100 upholstery options, anyone can find a version of it that works with their space.

We never thought we’d be turning to Anthropologie for furniture. It always seemed a bit too young, too boho. But this Havana leather chair … well, it’s stunning. The top-grain leather looks incredible, and the shape adds some visual interest.

And yes, of course, it’s comfortable. The plush cushions are perfect for a rainy day in.
