Well That's a Chair of a Different Colour!

When I think of dining rooms, I picture wooden paneling, stuffy curtains and uncomfortable chairs.

Luckily, some designers are fusing fun with formal to create proper dining spaces that maintain a sense of playfulness. They're elegant enough to host a sit down dinner party, but they have enough colour and vitality to invite a more casual meal as well.

I think that unique chairs upholstered in vibrant hues are the perfect touch for these colourful dining rooms. They scream "sit on me!" instead of muttering "only use me once a month"
