Creative seating for your next gathering

Share:

Mix up your normal seating routine and arrangements with the following creative seating options from Hazelview Properties. The following suggestions are easy, inexpensive, and might already be lying around your apartment in Guelph.

Vintage Chairs
Vintage chairs are a fun way to add a little flare to your seating arrangements. Who said chairs had to match? Try a selection of diverse, eclectic, and even mismatched chairs to add a touch of whimsy to any dinner party or social gathering. A great place to search for these vintage gems is at your local antique, furniture or even thrift stores to find unique pieces at great prices. For a more contemporary look, try mixing vintage seating options with more modern furniture. Chat Noir is located less than a five-minute drive away from our Vanier Place community and has a diverse selection of antiques and collectables.

The Floor
Get inspired by the Far East, and make use of your floor space for a simple and creative seating arrangement. For this fun option (that is actually quite common in Moroccan and Japanese cultures), gather comfortable floor pillows with low tables. This casual and fun atmosphere will make for a dinner party your guests will remember!

Folding Chairs
When extra seating is needed in a hurry, folding chairs can come to the rescue. They are easily tucked away and hidden from plain sight, while also being a very practical solution. Folding chairs are now available in a variety of elaborate and modern designs, as well as more simple and classic options. Homesense is located less than a three-minute drive away from our Vanier Place apartments at 27 and 40 Vanier Drive, and carries a wide selection of creative seating options including foldaway chairs.

Benches
Benches are a surprisingly practical and useful creative seating option that many people already have in their home. A bench works great in your front entryway or balcony and can be easily moved to the living room when you have company.
