Furniture Trends 2020: Solid Central Bases on Chairs & Tables

For our first trend blog of the new decade we look at a trend that encompasses both chairs and tables: central bases.

Chunky, solid central bases on chairs and tables, provide an unmissable eye-catching statement alongside a sturdy functionality. Chairs with solid bases are predominately fully upholstered and with curved backs which give additional comfort as well as a more organic form.

Central table bases are often conical or made from eye-catching finishes such as marble or gold as they are intended to stand out and be a striking feature of the table as a whole. The table examples below in particular, also typify another trend that of combining a mix of materials for a contrasting effect.
