Can I Mix These 2 Chair Styles Around the Table
Comments (13)I have 2 different end chairs with my dining room because I only had 4 matching chairs when I moved and ended up using the leaves in my dining table. The four chairs are collectibles that I refinished. I got the end chairs at Pier One. I can change out the pillows and make them look different, I currently have a purple rolled pillow and a lavender throw over the back of one of them. Table was set with an Easter theme. They are not perfect, but they are what I could afford at the time. I think they work as they are the same height and the dark wood blends in with the other furniture in the room. Having a similar or taller height on the end works well. A shorter one is difficult to fit in as it tends to pull the look of the end of the table down...hope that makes sense. Many folks use wing chairs on the ends, which is really nice, style and size is more important than fabric or color as you can blend those in...just my opinion. :-)...See MoreCan I Mix These 2 Chair Styles Around the Table
Comments (21)I just don't love the metal chairs in that kitchen. As a stand alone object I think they are ok, but I think they are out of sync with the room as a whole. Those chairs are vaguely Memphis inspired, vaguely post-Modernist, and they remind me of the movies Beetle Juice, and Ruthless People. And the horizontal bar between the loops is kind of like a towel rack, sorry :) They are whimsical, and in the right place, sure, but that isnt a whimsical room. The thing I liked about the mixed BW dining room is the Benches. I could see Two of your chairs, used as the end chairs with wooden benches that looked like your island maybe. The chairs on the ends should be the "character" pieces IMO and almost any chair you try to put with those is going to invert that, unless they are really out there....See Morecan you mix window pane styles on house's facade?
Comments (10)Casey, that's a good idea! I'm going to experiment with that while I'm looking for pictures to post. Cameron, I love the style of your house and gardens! We have some similar tastes I think. I've been emotionally hooked into Italy since I studied there in the 70s. The funny thing is that the Tuscan farmhouses that people die for now, and that cost millions even in dilapidated condition, were sold for nothing back then. People couldn't wait to get out of them to move into apartments in town! If only I'd had vision back then, instead of a head full of dreams.......See MoreCan I mix different styles of wainscoting and picture molding

5 years agoWhile I love the first set you show it is too modern for your space. I feel the second set could work, but beings your cabinetry appears to be dark brown I would suggest a brown finish over a black one. Good luck!
