Interior design is making bold moves in 2026 as sculptural forms and high-impact hues take centre stage in the FunHaus movement.

And even the hardest working homewares are getting in on the action as independent furnishing specialists Lakeland Furniture reveals a quartet of pieces set to take seating from a functional necessity into a definitive showstopper.

Ryan Lee, Founder of Lakeland Furniture, said: “FunHaus is a vibrant trend that brings real joy to the home.

“Seating is one of the easiest and most impactful ways to tap into this trend because it naturally draws the eye and anchors a room.”

Ryan has selected four pieces from Lakeland Furniture’s extensive collection which are ideal for homeowners looking to inject a little fun into their spaces.

First up is a pair of striking office chairs: The Lule Carver Office Chair in Yellow and Parga Office Chair in Hot Pink.

Ryan said: “Home offices have become permanent fixtures in many households, but too often they’re still treated as purely functional spaces.

“Office chairs are used daily, so they’re the perfect canvas for experimenting with colour. Whether it’s hot pink or sunshine yellow, a colourful chair can act as a focal point without giving the room a full redesign. You still get the ergonomic support and comfort you need, but with a layer of personality that reflects your style.”

In other areas of the home, a vibrant dining chair or a bar stool in an unexpected shade can instantly lift a space.

And according to Ryan, Lakeland Furniture’s Cuban Bar Stool in Wine Red and Hood Dining Chair in Emerald Green are great choices.

Ryan said: “Wine Red and Emerald Green are indulgent shades but there is a glamorous quality to give them a polished edge.

“But what really makes these pieces feel special is their tactile elements. The Cuban Bar Stool has a sumptuous seat that oozes personality while the velvet finish of the Hood Dining Chair draws attention.”

Lakeland Furniture’s range of bold bar stools, dining seating and office chairs are available now, with prices starting at £79.99.
