Martha Stewart designed a chic swivel chair that deserves a place in the smallest of living rooms – it's quietly on sale for under $400
Stewart's swivel chair is compact yet elegant, making it a staple for any small home – it's hidden on Wayfair (and heavily discounted)


A swivel chair is a truly timeless piece of furniture. With their revolving abilities and sleek silhouette, these seats are staples in modern and traditional spaces alike.
When it comes to small living rooms, swivel chairs make an ideal seating pick, and with a Wayfair sale in full swing, we have found the perfect option courtesy of Martha Stewart's collection.
The Amber Modern Velvet Swivel Chair (available on Wayfair) is a handsome and contemporary seat featuring soft-to-the-touch upholstery, a curved frame, and plush cushioning. The best part? It is discounted from $734.99 to $354.66 – a major steal considering it carries the quality and beauty we can expect from Martha's good name.
According to designers, swivel chairs are one of the best furniture picks for small spaces due to their compact size and stylish sensibilities.
'Swivel chairs are a smart addition to small living rooms,' says New York-based designer Nina Lichtenstein. 'Their ability to rotate 360 degrees makes them both practical and stylish, allowing you to easily reorient yourself without needing to move the chair itself. A swivel chair’s streamlined design works well in tight spaces, adding movement and flexibility while keeping the area open and functional. It’s perfect for a living room corner or as an accent piece, offering comfort and versatility without compromising the flow of the space.'
To further accent a swivel chair, consider adding colorful or printed throw pillows, as well as a complementary rug and a statement ottoman. We have rounded up all of the above items below, all of which are also part of the Wayfair sale.

Whether thrown on the bed or sat on an accent chair, this pretty floral lumbar pillow will add a pop of color and print. The embroidered flowers and eyelash fringe trim make it feel super premium.
Created exclusively for the Martha Stewart collection, this farmhouse-style ottoman has been designed with a hexagonal shape in a natural striped fabric that exudes country charm.
Made to last, this traditionally made hand-tufted wool rug has been finished with a subtle checkerboard detail to elevate it beyond your standard neutral rug. I'll be rolling this out in my entryway.
If you're looking to upgrade your small living room ideas, this chair is the dream. It's compact enough to work in even the smallest of homes, but it still has a presence that exudes sophistication and style. It was designed by Martha Stewart, after all.
