Red chairs don’t have to be relegated to the dining room or the kitchen. In this small forest cabin a pair of red chairs behind the sofa are used for both dining and living while an occasional chair near the fireplace picks up on the color via its back cushion.

OK, really, how cute is this space? It brings to mind that childhood puzzle “What’s black and white and red all over” but in this case its not a newspaper but a seriously chic, comfortable and relatively uncluttered social zone that features not only red dining chairs but a pop of red on a flower cushion and a red bowl on the coffee table.

Surrounding a table with bold red dining chairs can achieve the same results as an area rug so if you are one of those folks who cringe at the idea of carpeting under a dining table then red chairs might just be what you need.

Red furniture – especially chairs or stools – usually brings to mind either a modern or industrial aesthetic, but red lends itself to rustic as well. For example, just look how cozy these red chairs look around a knotty pine table. The pop of the red chairs and that unusual chandelier along with the red dino add so much personality to this modish room that its hard to tear your eyes away from it. It’s a great composition.

These dining chairs are steely red – literally, I love how the powder coating gives them a reflective sheen, such a nice contrast to the rustic trestle table with its solid wood plank top. The slim but high-impact, stop-dead-in-your-tracks red dining chairs add so much personality to this space that it’s hard to imagine the room with any other type of seating.
