I can't decide

Due to the recent house flood, I am shopping for a new chair or love seat.  Insurance will pay for whatever I buy (within reason).  I've narrowed my choices down to two chairs:

A Nest Chair, which is a huge circle (4' diameter).  When you climb in, you have to push yourself to the back, as though you'd just climbed into a bed from the end.  Ie - it's too deep sit on it with your feet on the floor and your back against the pillows.

Or a tufted chair (I can't find the exact model, but it's something like this one.)

Whatever I get, I want to use now.  I don't want to buy something, only to store it in the basement.

The Nest chair is the perfect chair for what I have planned when I finish the basement, but I don't expect to finish the basement any time soon.  It's sink in, curl up and read a whole book comfy.  It does not go with my current decor.  Until I finish the basement, I could leave it in the living room (where it would clash in style) or I could rearrange the furniture in my office to make room in there (putting my desk back to the "neighbourhood watch" position at the window).   This is not a Classic.  Chances are, it'll be an unwanted piece of furniture at some point.

The tufted chair is a style that I've always loved.  It's a classic style that I doubt I'd ever regret buying.  It would fit in with my current decor as well as just about anything in the future.   There's a space in the living room, calling its name.

Whichever chair I got, it would be in a neutral solid-coloured fabric.  If I got the Nest chair, I would have the option of of ordering the pillows in various coordinated colours and patterns.

I want the Nest chair.  

I think the tufted chair is the more responsible choice.  

Please tell me what to do.
