The painter in me is always drawn to a good brushstroke pattern. Here’s a few that I have my eye on now.

searching for a new chair
Like I said last week, I am now on the hunt for a new chair to sit along side our new blue sofa. Here’s a round up of some of my favorite upholstered options that are out right now.
The new chair will be heading for that empty spot between the TV console and the chaise side of the sofa (where we used to have the two yellow ones).
I have it narrowed down to my top two or three options but haven’t pulled the trigger yet. Which one is your fave?
1: Modern Chair from Urban Outfitters // 2: Everett Chair from West Elm // 3: Jensen Chair by Dwell Studio // 4: Louis Chair by Room & Board // 5: Rhys Chair from Anthropologie // 6: Pollino Chair by Dwell Studio // 7: Hans Chair by Dwell Studio // 8: Nina Chair by World Market // Kennedy Chair from Thrive Furniture

Maybe it is my background in painting (When I first went to college I started taking classes towards a BFA degree in painting before switching to graphic design two years in), but I love a good heavy brushstroke pattern.
