Curves, curves, curves: they're making a statement everywhere these days, and though they've recently resurfaced on the design radar as a fresh and trendy look, they're in fact a timeless style that's been around for some time.
These curves -- in the shape of rounded silhouettes and graceful arches -- are not only aesthetically pleasing, but extremely practical too. Arched shapes make a space feel a lot less boxy, providing a refreshing counterpoint to the usual right angles and visually elongating a space with their linear continuity. Rounded edges are also child- and pet-friendly, since there are no sharp corners to bump against and potentially cause injury.
Even if you're not renovating your house, it's possible to incorporate the curved decor trend into your home with a few choice pieces. Here are our favourite furniture picks from that'll help you stay ahead of the curve (pun fully intended).
Amber Swivel Chair
Kick back and relax with the Amber Swivel Chair, which is upholstered in a plush and chic boucle fabric. The chair's curved body cocoons you while you're reading or watching TV for maximum comfort. Plus, it can swivel round 360 degrees, so you can turn around to reach for that coffee easily. We think its sleek retro-mod silhouette will look great not just in the living room, but also as a luxe accompaniment to the dressing table.

Jaxon Dining Table and Jaxon Dining Bench
Part of the new Jaxon collection, this dining table and bench crafted in warm mango wood and a gracefully curved silhouette that lends organic simplicity to your dining space. The chamfered edges means that there are no sharp corners that may pose a danger to your children or pets, and there's less chance of injuring yourself while serving meals, too!

Jaxon Round Coffee Table
Also from the Jaxon collection, this round coffee table sports the same clean lines and sculptural elegance as its dining table counterpart. The natural grain of the mango wood shows through and lends each piece a unique character, while the minimalist silhouette of the table complements the space without overwhelming it -- perfect for smaller living rooms.
