Why Classic Leather Office Furniture Is Best for You
June 6, 2023
Your office is your personal space where you not only get your work done but also where your clients get their first impressions. Your workspace needs to be both comfortable and alluring, which is why leather pieces may be ideal as the main focal points for your office.
Here are reasons to invest in classic leather furnishings for your office space.
Leather Is Gender-Neutral
You want to appeal to both genders in your field, starting with your office. Leather is considered to be a gender-neutral material, especially if you choose classic, smooth lines (consider couches with leather buttons or brass legs for a streamlined, modern appeal). Leather makes vibrant wall color choices more toned down, lending to a more gender-neutral appeal without sacrificing personal style.
For a powerful presence in your office, stick to coffee-hued or black leather furnishings. For a softer appeal, opt for cream or light tan leather pieces. Your office furniture supplier will show you several brands and varieties of leather pieces to best meet your needs and budget.
Leather Is Versatile
Since leather furniture creates a statement all on its own, you can easily decorate around it with ease. This means you can adorn your office with a comfortable patterned rug, colorful or geometric couch pillows, or wall art in abstract or contemporary designs without worrying if your personal style will clash with your furniture choices. If you want to give your office personality but don't want to appear too unprofessional in the workplace, use leather pieces to complement your quirky style.
Leather Is Long-Lasting
Full grain leather (or pure leather) is the longest-lasting variety of leather used in furniture. As long as you keep your leather pieces out of direct sunlight (the sun fades, dries out, and cracks leather pieces) and use a leather conditioner periodically, you can keep your new office furniture in pristine condition for as long as you own it.
The quality of leather you choose for your office couches and chairs matters: stay away from the lower-class leathers, like genuine or corrected-grain leather, which are not as high-quality (or as comfortable) high-end leather pieces.
Leather Is Authoritative
Leather is well-known for its high-class appeal and no-nonsense approach, so this material is ideal for the office. Since leather is often used in professional settings, it's a wise choice for your office no matter what field you work in. Whether you need to impress clients daily or you want to give yourself an executive air around your peers, leather furniture is one way to make yourself stand out in the office.
Leather Is Easy to Clean
Leather is very easy to clean; simply wipe up stains and spills quickly from the surface to keep the furniture looking new and fresh. Leather furniture should be dusted regularly to remove dander and debris. When cleaning leather, use a dry cloth rag or a damp rag to remove spills.
Leather Is Comfortable
Finally, high-quality leather furniture is very comfortable. Even better, the older leather furniture is, the more worn and soft the material becomes (lending to greater comfort with time). Choose leather pieces that have plush seating areas and plenty of back support so you can be at ease when sitting in your office for several hours a day.
Leather furniture is a classic go-to in many office settings for good reason. If you can't decide what type of furniture to get for your workspace or you want to really make your office space pop, stick with leather. See what we have to offer at Chris Furniture.
