I like a pop of fun upholstery on traditionally styled chairs.  A colorful chair or two would be nice in a foyer or bedroom, or tucked beneath the dining room table.

 

A couple of those chairs you posted look like a torture chamber item, They don’t look comfortable and I don’t like them at all no matter how they are upholstered.

 

When I was first married, I had a sofa and love seat reupholstered in a fabric that was accented in purple.  The background was cream and the main colors were different shades of tan and brown with a dark green and a little purple.

 

My carpet was brown, tan and also had a highlight of purple.  I did this in a time when everything was orange, gold and olive green in home decor.

 

Everyone went wild over my choice.  It was really nice.  When we moved, the man who bought the place wanted my living room furniture, so I sold it to him. It matched the carpet perfectly.

These would all make a great bonfire! That's all they're good for IMO. Ugly, every one of them. Ick.

I like some of the patterns, but not a fan of the pieces of furniture.

I like a lot of it in the right house or cottage. Won't go with my decor. I could always re-do my whole house. LOL!!!
