Choose the best armchairs with cushions for 2025

If there is one piece of furniture that never goes out of style and, moreover, gains ground every year in interior and exterior decoration, it is the armchair with cushions. And it is no coincidence. Armchairs with cushions combine what we are all looking for in 2025: comfort, refined aesthetics, and versatility to adapt to any style, from the most rustic to the most contemporary.

At MisterWils, we know that every decorating project, whether for a home, restaurant, or hotel, needs pieces that are more than just pretty: they need to invite you to stay. And that’s where armchairs with cushions play a leading role. In this post, we’re going to review what makes these pieces of furniture special, what materials make a difference, how to choose them according to the space, and what trends are going to take this year by storm.

In addition, we will show you models from our catalog that fit all these styles: from the artisanal charm of the Bagus wooden armchair with cushions to the elegance of a Dakota upholstered armchair or the natural freshness of the Belice natural rattan armchair.

Get ready to be inspired and discover how a good armchair can completely transform a space.

Armchairs with cushions: the star trend of 2025

In 2025, furniture trends are moving towards cozy, natural, and functional designs, and armchairs with cushions fit perfectly into this concept. They are not only decorative pieces but also fulfill the main function that every seat should have: inviting you to sit down and enjoy.

This year, the search for comfort is non-negotiable. Customers want to feel that the furniture “embraces” them, that the cushions are soft but firm, and that the materials convey warmth. And we’re not just talking about living rooms; armchairs with cushions are making a strong showing on covered terraces, porches, and even creative work areas.

A great example is the Bagus wooden armchair with cushions, which combines a sturdy wooden structure with clean-lined cushions, perfect for bright interiors or chill-out spaces. This blend of strength and comfort makes it a versatile piece that can live in both a living room and a glassed-in terrace.

In short, a well-chosen armchair with cushions is a statement of intent: you are looking for style, but also comfort.

The balance between comfort and design

The success of a good armchair with cushions lies in balance. If it is too soft, it loses its ergonomic properties; if it is too rigid, it is not conducive to relaxation. Current designs, such as the Swam wooden armchair with cushions, strike that balance thanks to well-structured cushions and breathable upholstery.

Materials that make a difference in armchairs with cushions

The choice of material is key to determining the style, durability, and maintenance of the furniture. At MisterWils, we work with fine materials that not only look good but also age with character.

• Solid wood: conveys solidity and timelessness. Perfect for Mediterranean, Nordic, or rustic style projects.
• Natural rattan: lightweight and with a bohemian charm, it adds texture and visual freshness. Ideal for relaxed interiors and covered terraces.
• Quality upholstery: from natural linen to technical fabrics, they offer a pleasant feel and resistance to daily use.

The Swam wooden armchair with cushions is a perfect example of how wood and well-integrated cushions can offer impeccable aesthetics without sacrificing comfort. For its part, the Belice natural rattan armchair adds that tropical touch that works just as well in a summer living room as it does on a charming porch.

Wood and rattan: warmth and durability

These materials are not just a passing trend; they have been proving their worth for decades. Rattan, with its hand-woven design, and wood, with its unique grain, are safe bets for creating armchairs with cushions that you will fall in love with at first sight and that will last for many years

Armchairs with cushions for elegant interiors

In interior spaces, armchairs with cushions take center stage in living areas, reading corners, or lounge spaces. Here, the upholstery and finishes play a key role.

The Manchester upholstered armchair is an example of classic elegance, with generous padding and upholstery that exudes sophistication. In the same vein, the Dakota upholstered armchair brings a contemporary feel with clean lines and integrated cushions that offer hours of comfort.

These models are ideal for boutique hotels, private offices, or living rooms where furniture must be as functional as it is attractive. In addition, they allow you to play around with additional decorative cushions to change the look without replacing the main piece of furniture.

Color and texture combinations

The key is to seek harmony or contrast depending on the personality of the space. Cushions in neutral tones bring calm; in bright colors, they energize the atmosphere. Textures such as linen or velvet add layers of visual and tactile interest.

Charming outdoor armchairs with cushions

Armchairs with cushions are not exclusive to indoor spaces. Increasingly, we see them in patios, terraces, and covered gardens, where they provide the same comfort as in a living room.

The Jason wooden bench is ideal for creating an outdoor seating area. Its sturdy structure and comfortable cushions make it perfect for long after-dinner conversations or afternoons spent reading outdoors.

The key to outdoor furniture is to choose durable materials and cushions with removable covers for easy maintenance. If the space is partially covered, pieces such as the Belice natural rattan armchair can be used to create a relaxed and fresh atmosphere.

Create outdoor relaxation areas

Think about a set with armchairs, a low table, and soft textiles. A space where every element invites you to stay, chat, or simply watch the sunset.

How to choose the perfect cushioned armchairs for your project

Choosing cushioned armchairs is not just a matter of aesthetics: it involves thinking about how they will actually be used, the space available, and the atmosphere you want to create. An armchair can be the centerpiece of a living room, the gathering point on a terrace, or that reading chair you use every night. That’s why, before you rush out to buy, it’s a good idea to consider several aspects.

1. Dimensions: let the space breathe

There’s nothing worse than falling in love with an armchair and discovering that it doesn’t fit well in the space or that it blocks the passageway. Before you decide, measure the place where you are going to put it accurately. Think not only about the width and depth of the armchair, but also about the circulation around it: leave at least 70 cm free so that the space is comfortable to walk through.

In large areas, you can opt for generous models such as the Swam wooden armchair with cushions, which offers a spacious and comfortable feel. In smaller spaces, more compact armchairs such as the Belice natural rattan armchair work wonderfully without overwhelming the room.

2. Use: the key to durability

An armchair with cushions that you will use every day in a family living room is not the same as one designed for an occasional corner of a bedroom. If it is for intensive use, look for sturdy structures and cushions with firm fillings that will not lose their shape quickly.

For professional use—such as in a hotel, restaurant, or coworking space—it is essential that upholstery be durable and easy to clean. The Manchester upholstered armchair is an excellent choice for these types of environments thanks to its durability and elegance.

3. Material: personality and maintenance

The choice of material will determine not only the style, but also the maintenance:

• Wood: adds warmth and robustness, perfect for cozy environments. A perfect example is the Bagus wooden armchair with cushions.
• Natural rattan: ideal for relaxed and fresh spaces; conveys visual lightness. The Belice natural rattan armchair is a great example of the freshness of this natural material.
• Upholstery: offers extra comfort and a wide variety of colors and textures. Example: the Dakota upholstered armchair.

If it is for outdoor use, opt for treated wood or moisture-resistant fibers, and cushions with removable covers for easy cleaning.

4. Style: consistency and character

A good armchair with cushions should fit in with the visual language of the space. In a Mediterranean-style project, light wood and linen will be your allies. In an industrial space, dark wood structures or neutral-toned upholstery will work best.

For example, the Jason wooden bench can be integrated into a rustic dining room, while the Dakota upholstered armchair is suited to a more modern setting.

5. Models with matching benches

Within the world of cushioned armchairs, there is one format that is becoming increasingly popular among interior designers and architects: sets that combine individual armchairs with matching benches. These types of solutions not only maintain impeccable aesthetic consistency, but also allow you to optimize space and create versatile compositions.

Models such as the Jason wooden bench with its matching individual armchair, or the Bagus wooden armchair with cushions combined with the bench from the same line, offer multiple possibilities.

The key to these sets is that they work in both large spaces and smaller layouts: the bench provides capacity, the armchairs add comfort, and together they guarantee a refined and consistent aesthetic. With quality pieces and fine materials, such as wood and removable cushions, you will be investing in durable furniture that will maintain its beauty year after year.

Tips for smart shopping

Investing in armchairs with quality cushions means avoiding the recurring expense of replacing furniture every few years. Make sure that:

• The structure is solid and stable.
• The cushions have quality filling and retain their shape.
• The covers are removable and washable for easy maintenance.
• The finish fits in with the overall style of your project.

A well-chosen armchair is not just a seat, it is a piece that provides comfort, defines the atmosphere, and lasts over time.
