The Solution
The new chairs are still retro, but with their classic, timeless style they emphasize the look the homeowners already have in the living room. Designer Lee Snijders creates a feature for the long wall by framing and hanging Bryson's guitars. The vibrant green on the walls was taken from the needlepoint art that Bryson's grandmother made and coordinates with the accent colors from the adjacent room. The color also brings out the beautiful wood tones in the floor and furnishings.
