Guest & Side Chairs — Expert Answer

What's the difference between a lounge chair and a guest chair?

The main difference is seat height and intended use: guest chairs sit at standard desk height (17"–18") for conversation across a desk or table — they're upright and formal. Lounge chairs sit lower (14"–16") for a more relaxed posture in reception areas, break rooms, and informal meeting spaces. Putting a lounge chair at a standard desk or conference table puts the occupant too low for comfortable face-to-face interaction. Both have their place — just not at the same table.
