if they need to stack.... How about this? The "Type A Dining Chair", ~$80 The Target ones come in red or orange (at this price, 2 for $80, might be worth taking a chance on the longevity issue!) Italmodern's Beatrix comes in red (but more expensive ay $355 for a set of 4, and a review on Amazon says it's not very comfortable...) There's the Ghost Chair knock-off in red or orange, set of 2 for $500 Panton knock-off in red or orange: Translucent plastic Gel-T chair in red or orange Eames low lounge chair knock-off in orange $199 eBay (the real one comes in a dining-chair height version, not sure if the knock-offs do though) Eames dining chair with chrome legs, red stain, ~$500+ Another "real" design, this is the Cherner chair in orange plywood ($700)

Oh, mtn I agree completely--- that's almost exactly what I said to our ID when he sent me to the tk collections site for kitchen chairs. Luckily my mother came up with 4 French ladderbacks and I filled in with parsons chairs at the ends. But I spent a good deal of time playing with the weaves and colors--- this was about four or five years ago at the very beginning of the trend. We ended up putting four bistro type chairs on our screened porch that are all weather aluminum but look remarkably like rattan, which I got as a close out from a furniture supply company for practically the cost of the shipping! And the ability to take a hosing and not lose your stomach for continued renovation seems to be a required trait in a homeowner :-)

I use it as a desk chair. It's really fine for me, but I think a padded chair may be more comfortable. - but then there's the cleanliness issue (I eat at my desk!) The back is firm and is molded to fit around one's back. The seat comes up a bit then drops lower just before the knee. Coincidentally, I had hoped on getting Cherner chairs for dining, but ended up with Stua (think that's the name).

Whatever that is on the wall opposite the windows likely needs to go. You could begin by adding horizontal boards all across the end wall above the shelving at the same height as the horizontal divide between the lower windows and the smaller upper windows to cover and visually remove the arch -- no need to actually physically alter that space. (Use the same width board as the divider between the windows) Then add vertical tongue and groove paneling above that all across the end wall. https://www.kwaterskibros.com/products/tongue-groove-paneling/ As you panel the area between the horizontal board and the mantel, you could add a pair of (hidden -- no visible hardware) doors with the same look of that paneling to cover the niche and yet permit access to a hidden storage area behind the panels -- about the right size for a pair of fire resistant lock boxes.Then hang your tv via a connection to the wall above the doors -- perhaps on a swing out arm, making it easier to get to your hidden storage. Being able to change the angle of the tv could come in handy if those windows get direct sunlight. If you've not already purchased your furnishings, you might consider a pair of two seat sofas rather than a huge sofa -- that will give you more placement options than larger pieces. DO sit in whatever you buy before you buy it. For the MCM look, choose smaller pieces with crisp uncomplicated lines rather than ornate pieces. While these kinds of MCM look and can be comfortable https://www.totallyfurniture.com/baxton-studio-bianca-mid-century-modern-walnut-wood-dark-brown-distressed-faux-leather-livingroom-sofa-set-bianca-dark-brown-walnut-brown-4pc-set Do consider that they don't have cushioning on the arms of the chairs. I have a 3-pc set (2 seat and 2 chairs) very similar to these (except for a detail where the front of the arm becomes the leg). While they sit comfortably -- seat and back (new) are comfortable and have proven to be very sturdy (actual mid century pieces) after a while you can begin to notice the arms are not upholstered. You'll might also want to make sure the straps beneath the seats are the kind that will last. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mid-century-modern-Chair-Malinche-inspired-/392107501903 Something like this might be preferable. https://www.westelm.com/products/leon-wood-frame-loveseat-h2288/?catalogId=71&sku=5123879&cm_ven=PLA&cm_cat=Google&cm_pla=Furniture%20%3E%20Sofas%20%2B%20Loveseats%20%3E%20All%20Sofas%20%2B%20Loveseats&cm_ite=5123879&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI1q_82_Gf5gIVQeDICh3NrQcrEAQYBSABEgKFj_D_BwE
