Home office furniture that’s sleek, modern and styled to complement a room’s existing decor is a popular choice for many homeowners. This includes at-home executives; urbanites making the most of their small living spaces; and passionate home decorators.

Accent furniture performs many roles in home interiors, and like a promising ingenue, a new accent table, writing desk or upholstered accent chair will earn more accolades with each passing year. Several trends make accent furniture a popular category at present: small-space living, a preference for entertaining at home, and consumer confidence when it comes to home decorating, to name a few.
