FAT'S THE WAY TO DO IT...

Chunky shapes and sculptural seating is all the rage, says SAM WYLIE-HARRIS

WHEN it comes to home comforts and sinking into a seat, embracing the chubby aesthetic is the latest fashion and style trend...

“After years of sleek minimalism and hard edges, people are gravitating towards furniture that feels softer and more human, explains Jessica Hubner, founder of UK furnishings brand Collection Seven.

“Fat furniture’ with its rounded silhouettes and generous proportions offers exactly that... it's bold, sculptural and surprisingly comforting.”

Jessica says there's a growing appetite for statement pieces that feel like art... but function beautifully in everyday spaces. She adds: “People want their homes to feel expressive and inviting, and this trend taps into that perfectly.”
