Tub chairs are single-seaters with the back and arms formed by a singular curve from left to right. It imitates the feeling of sitting in a bath tub, hence the name. The design is relatively new on the market. It’s very simple and blends very well with the most eclectic collection of pieces. Its modern and contemporary feel lends a sense of neat and clean style to both your home and office.

Since the tub chair’s form is very simplistic with the single curve and no ornate carvings or difficult corners, it is very easy to alter by simply covering the whole thing with any type of fabric that might with the décor of the space. The most popular upholstery for offices is leather due to the more masculine appeal of the smooth hide. When used in a home setting, there is more room to play with texture, print and color since it can follow the style of the room it’s in.

Variations in the original design for the tub chairs are also available in the market now. For instance, some swivel at the base for a more playful approach to the otherwise classic form. Some of them even come with matching foot stools that can be tucked away underneath the seat.

If you’re looking for a piece of furniture that can be altered to fit your changing style preference, the tub chair is highly recommendable for your needs. The integrity of the basic concept of the chair can last for decades. All you need to do is buy new fabric for a completely new tub chair!
