What is the typical seat height of a guest chair?

Standard guest chair seat height is 17"–18", which is designed to match the height of a typical desk or conference table for a comfortable conversation posture across the table. Lounge or occasional chairs are lower (14"–16"). Matching the guest chair seat height to the table or desk height is important — mismatched heights create awkward conversational posture.
