Wingback chairs are classics that never goes out of style, and that’s for a reason: they look like an engraved invitation to grab a book and curl up with a cup of tea. This wingback chair is called Strandmon, and it’s created by the most popular furniture brand in the world: Ikea. Is it a good idea for your home? Where to place it and how to style it? Here are some ideas.
What Are Strandmon Advantages?
The moment you sit in the IKEA Strandmon, you’ll feel like you’re sitting on a piece of the cloud. The cushions on it are soft and plush, yet they provide ample support for your back and body. The top of the chair has cushioning that effortlessly supports your neck, giving you maximum comfort and relaxation. The ottoman would also be a great addition to the piece so that you can stretch out and relax to the fullest.

What Styles Can Welcome Strandmon Chairs?
The IKEA Strandmon was designed in the early 1950s when wingbacks were a must-have. The design is that of a typical wingback and takes a lot of inspiration from IKEA’s pioneer wingback chair, the MK. However, IKEA tweaked the design around by adding smaller armrests and less pronounced wings.
Like most of Ikea creations, Strandmon is a great solution for many interiors but first of all for Scandinavian, modern, farmhouse and vintage ones. It can be also integrated into many other spaces except for, perhaps, minimalist ones, and it will be that single vintage-styled piece – this is a hot trend in home decorating today.
