Thankyou Chookchook2 for recommendations. Clear chairs can work. I have recently painted apartment white. Would like to keep furniture light. I like woods idea too. I am worried the room will feel smaller with velvet grey stud chairs... Thankyou both for your comments. :) I'll let you know what I decide.

new house with a blank canvas of primarily white walls, black frame doors/windows & blonde timber (oak) floors so would like to stick to this palette for the big items (though will introduce pops of colour with smaller decor items)... going for a scandi inspired contemporary look... and kitchen next to open plan dining is black, white & grey, haven't bought stools yet but will probably get timber ones

They’re all really comfortable- which is part of the reason we stock them. We’re so careful about comfort, durability AND design- as well as ethical production. All things that are important to me! Thanks so much for your input everyone- our client is watching this post so let’s see what she chooses! I’ll let you know when I find out.

I recommend custom making a dining table using Caesarstone that complements your benchtop using our Lyn Base in a Brushed stainless steel with a navy blue velvet chair that is harmonious with the wall colour and surroundings. This table can be made to any size that suits your space see more details at https://www.mossfurniture.com.au/product/lyn-caesarstone-dining-table/
