Trends: round shapes for a home full of charm

A round piece of furniture is something that steps outside the box of the collective imagination. In particular, choosing furniture with round shapes marries the desire to aim for something original and visually striking.

Softer, less angular shapes lighten the style of a hyper-modern room, making the whole space more comfortable to the eye alone.

To make this concept clearer, we will try to create an image trail that winds through the rooms of the home to understand how a round piece of furniture can make a difference in the creation of one's space.

The living area: how round shapes enhance from entry to open space

Round shapes are shown to make the room more inviting, particularly when it comes to seating. These seem to embrace the body and inspire the idea of sinking in, conveying a feeling of immediate comfort.

As an example, we cannot fail to mention the Pacific by Ditre sofa. Already from the name we can well guess the feeling that this incredible design wants us to convey, a real journey into comfort.

Generally, sofas with rounded shapes are perfect for large open spaces, but there are also solutions suitable for rooms with smaller dimensions such as the Sophie sofa by Gallotti & Radice.

Looking for seating with visionary appeal? Then the creations by Edra are just what you need to make your environment unique and original. The spiral, the symbol of an infinite circumference, becomes three-dimensional in the Tatlin sofa, which offers a seat that can be enjoyed 360 degrees.

The idea of softness finds the perfect representation in the Cipria line, whose design is almost reminiscent of a cloud as also demonstrated by the iconic Cipria armchair with one armrest.

The round table: a true style icon

Between lovers and detractors, we can always argue that the round table will forever remain a style icon.

Revisited in many materials and finishes, the round table is able to attract attention by becoming the absolute star of the living room or dining room.

Ciat Design's selection of prestigious round tables includes a wide range of models from the best brands, among which we can count the already mentioned Gallotti & Radice, Cappellini, Cattelan Italia and many others.

Do not miss Bryant, the extendable round wooden table by Porada, also available in different finishes, perfect for giving your living room a touch of warmth and elegance thanks to its sober and refined line.

Reconceiving space organization: when bookcase becomes decoration

Organizing objects in the home always requires a lot of rationality. We have shelves full of books and maybe knick-knacks, photos and so on.

Rectangular shapes have, in this specific context, the upper hand. But what if we tried again to rethink these pieces of furniture by making them almost a sculpture? This is the great provocation coming from some designers.

One example out of all is the modular bookcase Cloud by Cappellini. This freestanding bookcase is perfect for creating a division between rooms without walls. In addition, it is characterized by its absolutely unique structure, in which shelves are replaced by round compartments.

Since it is a modular system, you can create your own bookcase according to your needs and arrange it either side by side with a wall or freestanding, all for a playful and modern final effect.

Finally, we can also mention the Drop by Cattelan Italia bookcase and wine rack. This bookcase is a real sculpture that creates a very interesting play of volumes thanks to its characteristic drop shape. Perfect for those who want to encompass their wine collection in a frame of excellence.

Round double bed: a real vintage dream

The circle has always been thought to be the perfect shape: but will it be the right one for your rest as well? Let's try to tell it through Lullaby Due the round bed by Poltrona Frau.

The semi-circular upholstered headboard is the plus of this bed, which could also be placed in a non-sleeping position, especially if the bedroom is very large and we can work out different solutions to give a touch of romance to our sleeping area.

In detail, the headboard and the bed are upholstered in leather, the latter available in different colors. You will be able to customize your round bed as you prefer by choosing between the original Pelle Frau leather enhanced by neutral colors such as white or shades of gray or beige, or by daring between more bold and bright color variants.

The round bed is perfect for those who want to give their bedroom an exclusive touch without sacrificing comfort.

Round furniture complements: why to choose them

We conclude our review on round furniture by devoting a final paragraph to furniture complements and lighting. Precisely the choice of a mirror, vase or small furnishings should not be left to chance.

In fact, round shapes can lighten the rigor of more angular forms, giving the room a more welcoming dimension just by the sight of them.

Suspension lamps with a round design can give a vintage touch to the environment and make, through faceted designs, suggestive plays of light, as in the case of the Ohay suspension lamp by Cattelan Italia. Round pendant lamps can be the perfect ally to stylishly illuminate a living room or dining area.

Color is another valuable ally when you want to characterize a room, and Venini vases can be the right choice to add an extra touch of value. The Deco vase with its exclusive rounded design is a stylish object that furnishes with its inimitable class.

Finally, in a home there is always a need for additional space, so it is important to choose furniture that in addition to design offers practicality and the possibility to improve the organization and order of a room. This is the philosophy of Anello the round coffee table with compartments by Caccaro, which is the ideal solution to be placed both in the living area and in the sleeping area, when you need an additional support point.
