New chair for the kitchen

I have one myself in black leather on cherry wood. Very comfy.

you can get chrome pipe covers, i've got some on the pipes that lead into a chrome towel rail

Only 15mm - that pipe will b 32mm.

Black and cherry is absolutely classic. I was going to get it for the living room and would have gone for that but had a change of heart and thought kitchen as there is a nice view (that in theory if I was ever not busy I could sit and look at). Felt the dark colours would be a bit of a downer in the kitchen which is very light so went all John Lennon as dirtyc pointed out.

New cloakroom completed today. I originally attempted to change a tap, which obviously resulted in a smashed pedestal, a broken tile, and a £2k bill from the bathroom company.

I'm fairly happy that they've done a good job of such a small space, but that bit of white waste pipe is annoying me (fitter said that the supplied chrome pipe was too short to reach outside). It's also not quite horizontal, which is also slightly bothering me. But maybe I'm just a massive anal pedant.

That looks nice. Ignore the comments about the price, clearly they're based on no knowledge of how much a toilet costs, how much even a decent tap costs.

The white pipe doesn't look out of place to me. If it's really bothering you, there's probably some sort of chrome vinyl wrap you could cover it in.

Would aluminium tape not be perfect for this?

Yeah with our house style (1910 victorian terrace) and all original wood floors, fireplaces etc.. it looks right.

You've totally gone for the right colours to go with what we can see of your decoration style

What make of chair is that (I'm ready for my eyes to burn when I see the price)

 

[Antihero]

I built one of these recently, took me longer than expected but it's an absolute blast.

If its not a replica - around 5k

The design is based on the Eames Lounge Chair.
There are several places you can buy 'inspired by' versions, just Google the name.
If you want a genuine one have a look here:
http://www.hermanmiller.com/products/seating/lounge-seating/eames-lounge-chair-and-ottoman.html

From what I have seen, the 'inspired by' versions are very good, just maybe differ slightly to avoid copyright, and of course don't use the Eames name.

 

[Skidder]

Yep, it's from modborn, it's not a Vitra or Herman Miller licensed one. Very impressed with the quality though. It's heavy, leather is very nice indeed. There is a blemish on one of the cushions but a replacement is on its way today.

That national lampoons moose mug is amazing. Where from ??

Bought a few things for my Girlfriend yesterday.
A Jasper Conran bag, an Alex and Ani bangle with her birthstone and a sexy little miniskirt

those chairs really do look great, are they any good for a desk, or just a lounge chair?

Yeah, there's probably a reason for that if you think about it.

It's an Eames Tall chair and ottoman.

only good for a lounge chair. They are super comfy and quite well reclined.

I bet they'd be fantastically comfortable for putting in front of the telly and watching a film or casual console gaming.

I'm holding off on buying a new couch until we decorate the lounge, but when we do, I'll let the missus pick a leather sofa and I'll get one of these to match it. #DadsChair

that's what i thought, especially as they are a lounge chair. still disappointing be nice if it was a multi tasker.

They're really quite low to the ground so definitely lounge. It would be great as a console gaming chair though! Mega comfortable
